Security Engineering Manager

OUR ORIGIN STORY 🎂

In 2011 SkySlope started as an idea born at the kitchen table of our CEO, with just him and two others. Headquartered in Sacramento, California, we have since grown out of our previous 3 offices and many of our close to 150 employees are spread all across the United States. Those 150 employees support close to 300,000 users across 5,000 offices nationwide and now in Canada as well. Included in that is 8 out of the 15 largest Real Estate Brokerages in the nation.

But, despite being happy with what we’ve achieved we know that as industry leaders in our space there’s a lot of work left to be done. All of the growth and success that has happened is a result of us obsessing over building cutting edge software that makes the Real Estate world a better place. We know this only happens by hiring people who don’t just come up with out of the box ideas but hiring people who actually see those ideas through and bring them to life. As we’ve grown, we’ve been fortunate enough to hire plenty of people who possess that quality and realize it’s equally important to hire people who can pair that skill with empathy, collaboration, and a keen sense of urgency. If you’re looking to join a company where you can have real impact and surround yourself with an incredible team of people then look no further.

Purpose: The purpose of the Security Engineering Manager is to build and lead SkySlope's dedicated security engineering team in pursuit of making life better for every real estate agent, broker and service provider. This is a player-coach role: they will design the security engineering program, own its execution, hire and grow the team that delivers it, and stay hands-on in the technical work throughout. SkySlope is making a significant, sustained investment in security engineering, and this role is the foundation of that investment.

Why This Role: This is a genuine greenfield leadership opportunity. You are not inheriting someone else's program, tooling decisions, or org chart. You will design the program, pick the tools, hire the team, and set the standards, with direct executive sponsorship and a Director of Engineering who currently leads the security function and is invested in your success. SkySlope is also an aggressively pro-AI engineering organization: we treat AI as a security force multiplier for review, triage, and detection engineering, operating within guardrails you will help define. If you want to build a modern security program from first principles, with AI in the toolbox rather than on the threat slide, this is that role.
