Product Security Engineer

CLEAR is building THE secure identity company of the future. Our mission is to make experiences safer and easier—physically and digitally. With more than 43 million Members and a growing network of partners across the world, CLEAR's secure identity platform is transforming the way people live, work, and travel. Whether it’s at the airport, stadium, or throughout your everyday life, CLEAR unlocks the magic of frictionless experiences.

We are seeking a Senior Product Security Engineer to serve as a technical leader and strategic contributor within our Product Security team. This role goes beyond execution — you will drive the evolution of CLEAR’s application security posture by influencing architecture, shaping security engineering processes, and mentoring team members in security and engineering. You’ll lead security initiatives across the organization and help embed security into every stage of our software development lifecycle. 

What you'll do:

• Drive security strategy and implementation across all CLEAR products and engineering teams, ensuring consistent protection of customer and business-critical assets.
• Partner with engineering leadership to align application security initiatives with company-wide technology and product roadmaps, balancing innovation with risk mitigation.
• Provide technical leadership across CLEAR’s application security initiatives, guiding architecture, design, and development to meet high security standards.
• Serve as a trusted advisor to cross-functional teams — including Engineering, DevOps, Product, GRC, and IT — enabling secure-by-design practices across the organization.
• Design and drive implementation of scalable automated security controls and testing frameworks integrated into CLEAR’s CI/CD pipelines.
• Lead complex threat modeling, architecture reviews, and risk assessments across high-value systems and platforms, driving meaningful security outcomes.
• Engage with CLEAR's customers to provide insight and support their fraud and identity initiatives.
• Mentor and grow the technical capabilities of the Application Security team and broader engineering community.

How You’ll Measure Success:

• Security-by-Design Adoption: Improved security architecture patterns and reduced vulnerabilities in early-stage design and development.
• Automation & Scalability: Increased coverage and efficiency of security testing through automation and self-service tools for developers.
• Cross-Team Enablement: Demonstrated influence across engineering teams, measured by uptake of secure coding practices and reduction in security debt.
