Senior Product Security Engineer

📋 Job Overview

At Hyperscience, we believe that behind every document is a meaningful human experience, whether that’s a family applying for their mortgage, a patient waiting for insurance coverage, or a student waiting for their visa to study abroad. However, for far too long, organizations have relied on outdated technology and manual processes to handle these processes, driving up costs, slowing down decisions, and frustrating customers. As a distinguished leader in its market category, including a Leader in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Intelligent Document Processing Solutions and several other leading industry analyst reports, our technology flips the script with an AI platform that reads, understands, and processes documents at massive scale—automatically. The Hyperscience Hypercell platform unlocks the value of an organization’s back office data through the automation of end-to-end processes, and transforms complex documents into LLM and RAG-ready data to power new enterprise GenAI experiences. This enables organizations to transform manual, siloed processes into a strategic advantage, resulting in a faster path to decisions, actions, and revenue; positive and engaging customer, public, and patient experiences; and dramatic increases in productivity. Leading organizations including American Express, Charles Schwab, HM Revenue and Customs, Mars, Stryker, The United States Social Security Administration, The United States Department of Veterans Affairs, and several others use the Hypercell platform to achieve a faster path to decisions, dramatic increases in productivity, and unparalleled business impact. Hyperscience is funded by top tier investors including Bessemer Venture Partners, Battery, FirstMark, Stripes, and Tiger Global.

✅ Key Responsibilities

• Product Security Strategy: Implement and mature a software assurance model that embeds security into the earliest stages of our development lifecycle.
• Security Design Reviews: Analyze new features and product releases, performing threat modeling and providing actionable guidance to engineering teams.
• Vulnerability Management: Triage external security inquiries, perform manual code reviews to identify flaws, and advise developers on effective remediation techniques.
• Automated Defenses: Design and deploy automated controls using open-source tools to detect, alert, and respond to common attacks against our cloud platform.
• Security Knowledge Share: Facilitate internal training and workshops on security best practices, raising awareness and fostering a security-first culture across the organization.

📌 Required Qualifications

• Programming Proficiency: Ability to read Python fluently and write production-ready code. (i.e: When an engineering team asks how to fix a vulnerability, you can open a PR with the code that fixes it, not a link to an OWASP article.) Also comfortable with shell scripting to build security automation and tooling.
• Software Security Experience: Bring 5+ years of Product Security experience, partnering with developers in a SaaS environment to build and scale a software assurance program.
• Offensive Security Skills: Show a practical ability to manually identify and exploit common security flaws in web applications and RESTful APIs.
• Cloud & Container Expertise: Possess hands-on experience deploying and hardening containerized environments using Docker and Kubernetes.
• Systematic Problem-Solving: Apply a structured approach to solving complex technical problems, coupled with strong communication skills and a deep sense of ownership.
• AI Fluency: Utilize modern AI tools and techniques to optimize security workflows, from code analysis to threat detection.
