Job Description
We are seeking a Senior Product Security Engineer to join our engineering organization as our first dedicated security hire. In this role, you will take primary ownership of n8n’s product security posture and work closely with the VP of Engineering to establish security as a core pillar of our engineering culture. This is a foundational role with significant autonomy and influence. You will define priorities, design processes, and implement pragmatic security practices that scale with a fast-growing, open-source-driven SaaS platform. While you will initially operate as a senior individual contributor, this role has the potential to evolve as n8n grows. You will partner with a 50+ person engineering organization across multiple product areas, acting as both a hands-on security expert and a trusted advisor who enables teams to ship securely without unnecessary friction. Key responsibilities include vulnerability management & disclosure, security tooling & assessment, incident response & security communication, security program development, secure SDLC integration, and more. Requirements include 5+ years of experience in product security, vulnerability management, understanding of web vulnerabilities, and experience with security tooling. Nice-to-haves include experience with SaaS security, JavaScript/TypeScript, and security certifications. The role emphasizes pragmatic risk reduction, enabling product velocity, and thriving in ambiguous environments. Benefits include competitive pay, equity, extensive vacation, health plans, pension, disability insurance, career growth, remote work, open source support, AI tools, transparency, and a positive culture.
