Liberate builds AI agents to automate manual tasks across the insurance industry, with a focus on voice automation and workflow automation for sales, servicing, and claims. The company has raised $72M including a $50M Series B in October 2025.
You will be Liberate's first dedicated security and infrastructure engineering leader, reporting to the VP Engineering with dotted-line partnerships to the Chief Product Officer and Customer Success leadership. This is a hands-on, infrastructure-heavy security role—not a governance-only CISO position.
Your primary responsibilities span three areas:
**Cloud Infrastructure & DevOps:** Own and evolve production cloud infrastructure across AWS, Kubernetes/EKS, networking, compute, storage, and data services. Build reusable Terraform modules, CI/CD pipelines, and deployment automation. Improve reliability through observability, alerting, SLOs, capacity management, backup/recovery, and disaster recovery. Participate in on-call rotations and convert incidents into durable platform improvements. Partner with platform and product teams on architecture and secure-by-default patterns.
**Security Engineering & Architecture:** Serve as the senior technical security owner and escalation point. Lead threat modeling and secure design reviews for agent capabilities, tool execution, integrations, multi-tenant services, and sensitive data flows. Build a practical secure SDLC including code scanning, dependency scanning, container scanning, CI gates, and security tests. Own identity, authorization, secrets, key management, encryption, network boundaries, audit trails, and tenant/data-isolation patterns. Establish controls for agentic AI risks including scoped tool access, credential handling, data exfiltration prevention, and prompt injection mitigation. Run vulnerability management end-to-end and build security telemetry and detection playbooks.
**Compliance & Customer Trust:** Own SOC 2 and related compliance programs end-to-end. Translate compliance requirements into automated technical controls rather than manual checklists. Lead audits, penetration tests, customer security reviews, and technical conversations with enterprise customers and auditors. Maintain a clear risk and security roadmap and use tools like Vanta as leverage while retaining internal technical ownership.
You are a senior infrastructure, platform, or DevOps engineer with real security depth, or a security engineer who has personally built and operated production cloud infrastructure. You write code and infrastructure-as-code, debug production systems, review architecture, and take changes from design through rollout and operation. You think in systems: identity, authorization, tenant boundaries, failure domains, and blast radius. You are pragmatic about tradeoffs between security, velocity, and operational burden.
