Technical Program Manager, Security

Cape is America’s privacy-first mobile carrier. Our mission is to be a force for good in global wireless. Cape was founded in 2022 by people who believe privacy is a fundamental right, not a luxury to be traded away. Our journey began when our founder recognized a critical vulnerability in our modern world: everyone relies on the same stagnant cellular infrastructure and legacy systems that track our every movement, monitor and profile our connections, and lose and sell our personal data.

Instead of accepting the status quo, we decided to fix it. National security professionals, journalists, parents, and everyone in between can stay connected and have privacy.

We didn’t just build a layer on top of old tech; we built America’s most private and secure mobile carrier from the ground up. By building our own network from scratch, we are able to design and build a suite of privacy and security features that no other carrier on the planet can offer.

Today, Cape provides our secure network to consumers, businesses, and government agencies alike. We closed our Series C in March 2026, and we are scaling rapidly, with the goal of giving people back control of their most personal information.

At Cape, we are the architects of a privacy-centric movement that is just getting started. We are relentless builders, constantly innovating at the edge of what's possible in telecommunications. We operate on a foundation of high trust and high expectations. Our structure is flat, and collaboration matters more than hierarchy. As a member of our team, you will collaborate with world-class engineers, architects, and visionaries, and work across organizational lines to solve "impossible" problems and deliver mission-critical results for our users every single day.

The Role: Cape is hiring our first Security Technical Program Manager, a rare chance to build this function from scratch inside a company where security is the product. You'll directly integrate with Security Engineering across their three pillars: detection and response , corporate security , and product security. Rather than specializing in one lane, you'll use your visibility of the whole board to set priorities, define success, and increase velocity.

You'll also be the connective tissue between security engineering and Cape's broader ~70-person engineering organization, managing speed-security tradeoffs that are becoming more complex as AI tools proliferate. The metrics you create will steer company-wide policy and prioritization, and your judgment will drive the company SBOM.
