About this role

Aircall is seeking an experienced Engineering Manager for Security Engineering to lead security operations out of the New York or Seattle office. This pivotal role suits a skilled people manager and technical leader eager to shape the security posture of a rapidly scaling AI-powered customer communications platform.

Role Overview

As the Security Engineering Manager, you will oversee an established team across four vital pillars: Product Security, Infrastructure Security, Detection & Response, and Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC). You will set the technical direction and scale the team through high-impact AI engineering while partnering closely with Engineering, Product, Legal, IT, and Finance. Your mission is to embed security deeply across the entire organization, championing pragmatic security outcomes and developer-centric workflows.

Key Responsibilities

Product Security: Own the Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SSDLC) from threat modeling to production deployment, secure agentic development practices, and CI/CD security integrations like SAST, SCA, and secrets detection.
Infrastructure Security: Define and maintain cloud infrastructure security architecture emphasizing zero-trust, least privilege, container security, IAM, and OPA policy enforcement.
Detection & Response: Build and mature threat detection capabilities, manage SIEM tuning, lead incident response and tabletop exercises, and ensure reliable coverage rotations.
Governance, Risk & Compliance: Own and improve the information security management program aligned to SOC 2 Type II and regulations like GDPR and CCPA, while leading audit preparations and enterprise security due diligence.
People Leadership: Lead, mentor, and grow a multidisciplinary security team of 6 to 10 engineers, conducting structured 1:1s, career development, and psychological safety initiatives.

Requirements

7+ years of professional experience in security engineering.
3+ years in an engineering management or technical lead role with direct reports.
Proven track record of building and scaling security teams in a cloud-native, SaaS environment.
Deep technical fluency across at least two of the four security pillars.
Hands-on experience with major cloud platforms (AWS strongly preferred, GCP or Azure a plus) and infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform or CDK.
Experience owning or contributing to SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, or equivalent compliance programs.
Demonstrated ability to communicate security risk clearly to non-technical executives and board members.
Experience running security incident response from detection through post-mortem.

Nice to Have

Background in a high-growth B2B SaaS or cloud-communications company.
Familiarity with VoIP, real-time communications, or telephony security considerations.
Experience embedding Agentic AI practices into security engineering workflows and securing internal AI tooling.
Relevant certifications such as CISSP, CISM, AWS Security Specialty, or GIAC credentials.
Experience running a Bug Bounty program through platforms like HackerOne or Bugcrowd.
Contributions to the open-source security community, conference speaking, or published research.
Familiarity with DORA metrics and deployment frequency relating to security posture.
