The posting

Most boards and executives are currently flying blind when it comes to cyber risk. They are guessing. At Safe, we’ve built an AI-driven engine that finally gives the C-Suite a clear, quantified, and real-time view of their security posture. We don’t just provide data; we provide certainty.

We are a $170M Series C-funded category leader. We don’t play in the mid-market; we operate at the highest levels of global enterprise. Today, we are proud to serve 10% of the Fortune 500, protecting global icons such as Apple, Netflix, AT&T, Verizon, and Victoria’s Secret.

As we scale toward our next chapter, we are looking for high-performers who want to do the best work of their careers at the intersection of AI and Cybersecurity.

The Culture Memo: Our Operating System

Safe is not a typical corporate environment. We are a high-intensity, mission-driven team. We value builders who want to define a category and work alongside people who are equally committed to excellence.

  • Extreme Ownership: We don’t do "not my job." We hire people who see a gap and own the solution from start to finish.
  • The Elite Standard: We serve the most sophisticated companies on the planet. Our work must be bulletproof. Whether it’s a line of code or a sales deck, we aim for Tier-1 quality every time.
  • Methodology & Rigor: We don’t wing it. From Force Management and MEDDICC in sales to data-driven sprints in engineering, we rely on proven frameworks to stay disciplined and predictable.
  • Radical Candor: We move too fast for politics or sugar-coating. We value direct, honest feedback that helps us find the right answer quickly.
  • The Series C Hustle: We have the stability of a well-funded leader but the heart of a startup.

The Perks & Ownership:

We want our team to feel like owners because they are owners. We trust our people to manage their results and their time.

  • Meaningful Equity: Every "Safestar" is a shareholder. You aren’t just an employee; you are a partner in our success.
  • Unlimited Leaves: We don’t believe in clock-watching. We offer unlimited leave because we trust you to take the time you need to recharge while staying committed to the mission.
  • Comprehensive Benefits: We provide top-tier medical insurance and wellness benefits to ensure you and your family are well cared for.
  • Career Trajectory: We are growing aggressively. For high-performers, the path for advancement moves at the speed of your ambition.

Job Overview:

As an Engineering Manager, you will:

  • Lead talented engineers by providing technical guidance, mentorship, delivery ownership, and strategic direction.
  • Contribute to solving complex scale, architecture, data, and AI-driven product problems.
  • Collaborate closely with Product, Design, Platform, DevOps, Security, and other engineering teams.
  • Help design and build core product features aimed at predicting, quantifying, and preventing cyber breaches.
  • Drive modern engineering practices, including AI-assisted coding, effective usage of tools like Cursor / GitHub Copilot / LLMs, and practical application of LLM-based systems such as RAG, agents, prompt engineering, and evaluation frameworks.

Core Responsibilities

  • Technical Leadership: Lead, mentor, and inspire a team of engineers, fostering a culture of ownership, continuous learning, growth, collaboration, and engineering excellence.
  • Technical Strategy: Define and execute the technical strategy and roadmap for your team, aligning it with business objectives, product priorities, customer commitments, and organizational goals.
  • Code Review: Conduct thorough code reviews to maintain code quality, improve maintainability, identify refactoring opportunities, and provide constructive feedback to team members, including on AI-generated code.
  • AI-Assisted Engineering: Drive adoption of AI-assisted coding and productivity tools such as Cursor, GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, or similar tools for development, testing, debugging, documentation, codebase exploration, and refactoring.
  • LLM Awareness: Bring practical knowledge of LLMs, prompt engineering, RAG, AI agents, vector stores, model evaluation, and LLM observability, and guide teams in applying these concepts responsibly in product and engineering workflows.
  • Problem Solving: Troubleshoot and resolve complex technical issues, identify root causes, and implement effective long-term solutions across microservices, distributed systems, data platforms, and production environments.
  • Collaboration: Collaborate closely with product managers, designers, architects, DevOps, security, and other stakeholders to ensure alignment between technical solutions, product outcomes, customer needs, and business objectives.
  • Project Management: Lead the planning, execution, and successful delivery of features, ensuring they are completed on time, within scope, and to the highest quality standards.
  • Technical Excellence: Drive innovation and adoption of best practices in development, architecture, testing, observability, security, performance, cost optimization, and modern AI-native engineering practices.
  • Architectural Guidance: Be a thoughtful technical voice and support your team in making diligent architectural decisions across APIs, microservices, event-driven systems, cloud infrastructure, data stores, and AI-enabled capabilities.
  • Production Ownership: Ensure your team owns production quality through observability, incident management, RCA, bug hygiene, performance tracking, SLOs, and continuous reliability improvements.
  • Performance Management: Conduct regular performance evaluations, provide feedback, support professional growth, and coach engineers on technical depth, ownership, communication, and execution.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
