Director of Engineering, Infrastructure Security

HubSpot’s Infrastructure Security product groups are responsible for the security of HubSpot’s Cloud-based Infrastructure. Broadly, our mission is to provide world-class infrastructure as a service that empowers the product team to build, operate, and scale HubSpot’s products securely. We solve technical and security challenges in a way that keeps HubSpot fast and lean, making the best and easiest solution also the one that best protects our customers’ data.

As the Director of Engineering, you will be responsible for developing and executing a strong technical strategy for the Infrastructure Security product group, as well as leading and growing a talented group of engineers and engineering managers. 

We’re looking for experienced engineering leaders who are excited by the challenges that come from working at scale and are passionate about protecting our customers and their data. We favor forward-thinking engineering leaders who can identify and remediate problems before they happen, and understand how to build platforms that are intuitive to use, highly performant, and extremely reliable. If you are an experienced leader with a passion for building systems that are  secure-by-default and low friction, come join us! 

We are looking for people who: 

• Have a bias for fixing problems with technology rather than process.
• Are full of passion for building secure, reliable systems.

• Proven ability to solve complicated technical problems and analyze trade offs with empathy for the developers.
• Ability to demonstrate pragmatic decision making and problem-solving abilities.

• They build trust, respect, and empathy, and use that as a base to deliver radical candor.
• They foster an inclusive team and sense of mission
• They have strong working relationships across the organization, from the tech leads and the individual contributors who report to them, to the product managers and designers their reports work with, to their peers & the executive team
• They understand our customer and business needs
• They understand how we build and why
• They represent our mission, culture, and commitment to DI&B to candidates
• They get team members and candidates excited to take on new challenges

About you:
