Senior Manager, Product Security

About the Role

• Lead a team dedicated to embedding security into Databricks’ core platforms — including compute, identity, data plane, control plane, Kubernetes infrastructure, and developer frameworks.
• Shape company-wide security architecture by driving “secure-by-default” platforms, opinionated frameworks, and systemic guardrails.
• Partner closely with engineering teams to make the secure path the easiest path.
• Eliminate entire classes of security risk through scalable design, not manual reviews or ticket triage.
• Set technical direction and empower engineers to build secure systems at massive scale.

The Impact You Will Have

• Build secure platforms: Integrate security into infrastructure and platform systems from the ground up.
• Create reusable security frameworks: Develop secure reference architectures and automated guardrails that simplify adoption.
• Reduce systemic risks: Identify patterns of architectural weaknesses and drive durable, root-cause fixes across product areas.
• Influence roadmaps: Work with engineering and Red Teams to validate assumptions, improve controls, and strengthen design decisions.
• Scale security leadership: Grow and mentor senior security engineers, ensuring engagement happens early and proactively.
