Today, impersonation, fraud, AI-driven scams, and identity abuse spread faster than any security team can respond to. So we built something different: an agentic AI platform that proactively detects, monitors, and takes down impersonators, automating protection in hours, not weeks.\nBuilt by ex-Palantir, ex-CTO/founders, and ex-Notion engineers, Outtake is designed for clarity, autonomy, and velocity. Our goal is ambitious: become the trust layer of the modern internet. And we intend to do it with a lean, dense, exceptionally talented team.\nOuttake is backed by top-tier investors and operators who believe in our mission and our model. With strong financial footing and a long runway, we prioritize creating an environment where people can do the best work of their careers.\nThe Role\nThis is a foundational security hire. You will be our second security hire, taking on massive ownership and the ability to shape the function from the ground up, with a direct line to how security scales with the company as we grow.\nEngineering at Outtake is built on ownership, clarity, and end-to-end impact. We hire entrepreneurial engineers who think in systems, not tickets. Our teams are flat and autonomous: engineers ship fast, make product decisions, and own outcomes from concept to deployment. We optimize for grit and velocity, which means every engineer operates with the scope, influence, and equity of a future CTO.\nThis is a hands-on security engineering role. You will own the security posture of our cloud infrastructure, build our detection and response capabilities, and design the access architecture that keeps our systems and customers safe.\nWhat You’ll Do\nOwn the security posture of our cloud infrastructure: AWS, EKS, Vercel, Supabase.\n\nBuild our detection and response capabilities for capable incident response.\n\nDesign and operate our secrets, credential, and access management architecture across our services.\n\nPartner with engineering on secure-by-default patterns: IAM, network segmentation, privilege, and access control.\n\nHelp shape our agentic AI security posture as the platform evolves.\n\nAs our second security hire, shape the function from the ground up and set the direction for how security scales with the company.\n\nWhat We’re Looking For\n3+ years in infrastructure security, security operations, or platform engineering with strong security ownership.\n\nHands-on Kubernetes security: RBAC, network policies, admission control, secrets handling.\n\nExperience architecting effective, precise D&R SIEM/SOAR systems.\n\nComfort writing and shipping code in your language of choice.\n\nReal incident response experience as an IC, including communicating with non-security stakeholders under pressure.\n\nPragmatism about the tradeoffs between security, velocity, and developer experience at an early-stage company.\n\nNice to have: background defending or attacking AI/ML systems and agent infrastructure.\n\nNice to have: endpoint security operations (EDR/MDR).\n\nNice to have: experience as the security person at a small company, with a feel for how the function evolves.\n\nLife at Outtake\nOffice: For those in NY, we are an in-person team (5 days a week, with flexibility as needed) working out of a stunning waterfront office in Brooklyn. Collaboration, speed, and clarity matter.\n\nHealth: 100% company-paid medical, dental, and vision for employees.\n\nTime Away: Flexible PTO. We trust adults to manage energy, not clock time.\n\nCulture & Team: Annual company retreats and regular in-person events.\n\nOuttake is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to building a diverse, inclusive team.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3703,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":3,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Threat Intelligence","Cybersecurity AI","Brand Protection & Anti-Counterfeiting"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-06-01T01:30:36Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 5","filings_12m":5,"filings_prev_12m":1,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":217500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-15T11:24:14+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":4}],"liveness":{"score":55,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.771,"p_room":0.72,"age_days":137,"expected_fill_days":196,"reasons":["conf:3","win:mid","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-16T05:45:00Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":265000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/outtake-software-engineer-security","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/outtake-software-engineer-security.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-17T03:42:13Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":4889,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-18T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":7293},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=7293"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fouttake-software-engineer-security"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fouttake-software-engineer-security"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fouttake-software-engineer-security"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/outtake-software-engineer-security\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fouttake-software-engineer-security"}]}
