Our mission is to unlock the next era of financial, creative, and personal freedom by providing trusted access to the decentralized future. We envision a world where crypto reshapes the global financial system, internet, and money to create greater choice, independence, and opportunity for all - bridging traditional finance with the emerging cryptoeconomy in a way that is more open, fair, and secure. As a publicly traded company, Gemini is poised to accelerate this vision with greater scale, reach, and impact.\nThe Department: Platform Security\nIn the emerging industry of digital assets, there is nothing more important than trust. The Gemini security team forms the backbone of trust. In fact, Gemini’s very first hires were security specialists and we continue to tackle unique challenges in the crypto space. Our team ensures that our customers, clients, and employees are safe, secure, and supported.\nThe Role: Senior Manager, Platform Security\nGemini takes a cloud-first approach to our services, platforms, and vendors, allowing the organization to continue scaling with hypergrowth hiring, innovative product development, and demanding customer needs. To achieve that scale securely, Gemini has a dedicated Platform Security team whose mission is to enable the business to achieve secure-by-design architectures, implement best-in-class security technologies, and help our engineering partners to achieve security success easily & confidently. To further that mission, we’re looking for a new leader to join the existing team to take our vision, strategy, internal partnerships, business alignment, & technical expertise to the next stage of maturity. At Gemini, our best leaders lead from the trenches - we need this Senior Manager to remain hands-on, spending a meaningful portion of their time in the code, IaC, and architecture diagrams alongside their team - writing Terraform, reviewing PRs, and prototyping solutions, not just unblocking others when they're stuck.\nResponsibilities:\nProvide strategic and technical leadership of Gemini's Platform Security team, personally architecting and implementing security solutions alongside engineers - including writing and reviewing Terraform, CI/CD pipelines, and security tooling code\nAlign team-wide strategy with the needs of the business, internal partners, & peer Security leadership\nEnable the ongoing success & growth of the team through creation of hiring plans and hands-on technical mentorship - pairing with engineers, reviewing designs and PRs, and staying current on the team's actual codebase\nEstablish a Platform Security roadmap for initiatives that will provide ever-increasing maturity of capabilities for stakeholders, while also reducing toil through automation\nServe as a senior technical escalation point for the team's hardest architecture and engineering problems, contributing working code/IaC when the situation calls for it\nFoster trust-centric relationships with key partner teams, ensuring that their voices are heard and needs are being met, while achieving excellent security outcomes together\nLead the development of security policies, procedures, standards, & guidelines that will guide functional security outcomes with all GRC and Audits needs being met\nDetermine program KPIs that will meaningfully highlight where we’re succeeding, or falling short of, the mission we aim to accomplish for the business\nProvide guidance through lived-experience and industry awareness on the different approaches to architecture, security engineering, and business-achievement goals\nDefine a customer-first process, choosing to provide self-service solutions that minimize friction, create agility, and provide value-oriented ways to solve problems\nManage relevant third-party vendor relationships, leading the determination of when & why to “build” vs. “buy” in response to gaps in capabilities the business may have\nQualifications:\n5+ years of leadership experience for cloud-native engineering and/or security teams, with a strong preference for Amazon Web Services (AWS)-based organizations\n10+ years of direct, technical experience in relevant roles (e.g., Platform Engineering, Security), with continued hands-on coding/IaC work within the last 2-3 years - not solely past practitioner experience\nStrong experience in AWS, EKS (Kubernetes), IAM, Terraform, GitHub Enterprise Cloud\nExperience leveraging industry security frameworks & standards that act as the basis of maturing the overall security program and enable successful business outcomes\nComfortable with hiring & scaling a team \nPrior success in leading a team through organizational change management, with a strong preference for start-up experience in a technology-centric business\nAble to easily communicate with technical stakeholders at their level, hearing their feedback and translating those needs or concerns into program-level outcomes\nPragmatic about security requirements, ignoring “best practices” that don’t make sense to the needs of the business by leveraging your team’s expertise for decision making\nStrong written and verbal communication skills with an attention to detail\nIt Pays to Work Here\nThe compensation & benefits package for this role includes:\nCompetitive starting pay\nA discretionary annual bonus\nLong-term incentive in the form of a new hire equity grant\nComprehensive health plans\n401K with company matching\nPaid Parental Leave\nFlexible time off\nSalary Range: The base salary range for this role is between $195,000 - $300,000 in the State of New York. This range is not inclusive of our discretionary bonus or equity package. When determining a candidate’s compensation, we consider a number of factors including skillset, experience, job scope, and current market data.\nIn the United States, we offer a hybrid work approach at our hub offices, balancing the benefits of in-person collaboration with the flexibility of remote work. Expectations may vary by location and role, so candidates are encouraged to connect with their recruiter to learn more about the specific policy for the role. Employees who do not live near one of our hubs are part of our remote workforce. All employees, however, are required to onboard in-person at one of our office locations.\nAt Gemini, we strive to build diverse teams that reflect the people we want to empower through our products, and we are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity, or Veteran status. Equal Opportunity is the Law, and Gemini is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace.
