Software Engineer, Enterprise Security

The shape of it

In the posting’s own words

Our mission has remained the same even as AI has advanced: to empower developers to ship better software more quickly, freeing them to focus on the creative and rewarding aspects of their work. If you want to help define what development looks like in the agentic era at a company where your work reaches hundreds of thousands of engineers every day, we'd love to have you.

What it asks for · 7

• Strong software engineering fundamentals and a track record of personally designing, building, and shipping significant product or platform capabilities.
• Experience building security-sensitive enterprise features or systems, such as authentication and authorization, RBAC/ABAC, SSO/SCIM, permissions and policy systems, audit logging, tenant isolation, secrets management, encryption, or data controls.
• Strong security intuition and the ability to reason deeply about trust boundaries, permissions, credentials, data access, and how systems can be misused.
• Ability to lead ambiguous technical areas as a senior IC: identify the problem, develop an approach, align stakeholders, and drive implementation through completion.
• Experience building products used by security teams, CISOs, or enterprise administrators, giving you firsthand understanding of how sophisticated organizations think about security.
• Experience building security products or developer-facing security systems at companies such as Wiz, Snyk, Semgrep, Cloudflare, or similar.
• Experience with application security, threat modeling, vulnerability response, or security incidents. These are valuable complementary skills, but this role's primary focus is building product.

Also a plus

• Experience as a Senior or Staff engineer owning enterprise security, identity, authorization, trust, or governance capabilities at a developer-tool, AI, cloud, security-product, or enterprise SaaS company.
• Experience building products used by security teams, CISOs, or enterprise administrators, giving you firsthand understanding of how sophisticated organizations think about security.
• Experience working directly with enterprise customers or GTM teams to turn customer security requirements into product capabilities.
• Experience securing AI or agentic systems, particularly around scoped permissions, untrusted code execution, sandboxing/isolation, secrets and credentials, tool access, approval flows, or access to customer data.
• Experience building security products or developer-facing security systems at companies such as Wiz, Snyk, Semgrep, Cloudflare, or similar.
• Experience with application security, threat modeling, vulnerability response, or security incidents. These are valuable complementary skills, but this role's primary focus is building product.

What the job covers

• Design and build enterprise security capabilities across areas like identity, authorization, permissions, auditability, policy, data controls, and administration.
• Define the security model for agentic software development, including how agents access code, tools, credentials, customer data, and other sensitive resources.
• Own major security-sensitive product areas end-to-end, from understanding customer needs and defining the right product behavior through architecture, implementation, launch, and iteration.
• Partner with Product and GTM to understand enterprise security requirements and translate them into product investments that unlock adoption without compromising Warp's usability.
• Set technical direction for enterprise security at Warp, identifying the highest-leverage capabilities and architectural investments as our product and enterprise business grow.
• Bring security expertise to the broader engineering organization, helping teams make good architectural decisions around authentication, authorization, isolation, data protection, and other security-sensitive systems.
