Platform Security Engineer

Alignment is building the future of team intelligence — a platform that automatically gathers Slack messages and scattered files into one organized knowledge base. It structures information with no manual work, while an AI agent reads raw data, verifies facts across business apps, and delivers reliable, up-to-date answers. Alignment helps organizations turn everyday conversations and documents into trusted, living knowledge that keeps teams aligned and informed.

To achieve our ambitious goals, we’re looking for a Security Engineer to join our Platform Security team. Our commitment to user trust is unwavering, and this new team member will play a crucial role in maintaining the trust of millions of users who rely on our products. With their expertise, we can implement security enhancements throughout the back-end and underlying infrastructure to address potential threats.

Alignment's engineers and researchers have the freedom to innovate and uncover breakthroughs—and, in turn, influence our product roadmap. The complexity of our technical challenges is growing rapidly as we scale our interfaces, algorithms, and infrastructure.

As a Security Engineer in Platform Security, you will:

Develop and implement security processes to identify, evaluate, and mitigate security risks in our cloud infrastructure.

Partner with Cloud Infra, Data, and Product Engineering teams to define and drive secure-by-default environments supporting product needs.

Experiment with and develop AI-based tools to enable the Security team to move even faster.

Define and monitor impactful metrics to guide the platform security program forward.

Educate and mentor team members and developers on security best practices.

Collaborate and build trust with different stakeholders to advise them on matters of security.
