About the Role:

Motive is looking for a Product Security Architect to join our Product Security Team. You will be the primary security partner for product and engineering teams, focusing on design reviews, threat modeling, and building scalable "secure-by-default" components (libraries, services, frameworks) that empower engineers to ship securely and quickly. You will work across teams, influencing architecture and driving enablement programs.

This is a highly strategic and technical role for architects who want to scale security through programs, influence, and engineering excellence, focusing on design, automation, and enablement.

What You’ll Do: 

  • Lead security design reviews and threat modeling for critical new products and features.
  • Partner directly with Engineering teams to define security requirements and architecture.
  • Design, develop, and advocate for secure-by-default libraries and frameworks that eliminate entire classes of vulnerabilities.
  • Provide expert guidance on architecture patterns (cloud, container, API, identity, data) to ensure security is built-in, not bolted on.
  • Review 100s of features being shipped every quarter, identifying high-risk areas and prioritizing engagement.
  • Drive measurable security outcomes by scaling engagement with dev/eng teams while keeping the security team lean.
  • Own vulnerability management in key domains such as API security, authentication/authorization patterns, and data-in-transit/at-rest security, and bug bounty
  • Contribute to documentation, playbooks, and reusable patterns.

 

What We’re Looking For:

  • Strong background in Product Security principles, architecture, and design patterns (API security, modern auth/auth, data security).
  • Proven ability to lead security design reviews and threat modeling for large-scale distributed systems.
  • Experience designing and developing secure-by-default libraries, frameworks, or security services for internal consumption.
  • Deep hands-on experience with cloud security fundamentals (identity, networks, encryption, isolation, boundary design).
  • Ability to design, write, and maintain automations using Python or Go is a plus, but architecture skills are paramount.
  • Excellent cross-functional collaboration and communication skills, with a track record of influencing engineering and product decisions.

Creating a diverse and inclusive workplace is one of Motive's core values. We are an equal opportunity employer and welcome people of different backgrounds, experiences, abilities and perspectives.
