Who are we?

At UpGuard, we are replacing manual security bottlenecks with AI-driven precision. Fresh off a US$75M Series C, we are scaling our infrastructure to process 100 billion risk signals daily. This isn’t just growth; it’s a total reimagining of how the world manages cyber risk.

We build the Cyber Risk Posture Management (CRPM) platform that security teams actually love. By integrating security ratings, threat intel, and agentic AI, we empower organisations to stay ahead of an ever evolving attack surface.

We aren’t just building another tool; we’re defining a category. We provide the autonomy to ship world-class technology and the resources to do it at a global scale.

Where does this role fit in?

Build, operate and continually improve the technology platform that lets every UpGuardian work securely, efficiently and with minimal friction.
You’ll own the lifecycle of our corporate technology end to end: identity, endpoints, SaaS and the service practices that hold them together. You’ll automate the repetitive parts, instrument the rest, and make security a property of how systems are built rather than a task someone remembers to do.
This is an engineering role, not a ticket queue. If you see the same request three times and your first thought is “why is a human still doing this?” - you’ll fit.
Security is an outcome of excellent operational engineering here, not the primary function of the role.

What will you do?

Platform, identity and fleet

Google Workspace, Okta (or equivalent IdP), and MDM (Kandji, Jamf or similar) across a mostly macOS and ChromeOS fleet
You’ll own SaaS administration and lifecycle, asset management, endpoint standards and compliance, and the joiner–mover–leaver process end to end

Zero Trust and secure access

Operate and continually improve our Cloudflare Zero Trust environment across ZTNA, Secure Web Gateway, DNS filtering, tunnels and identity and device aware access policies
You’ll help move us away from traditional network trust, maintain secure access to internal applications and services, troubleshoot access and connectivity issues, and make sure security controls don’t create unnecessary friction for employees
