ABOUT THE ROLE:

At Jasper, we are defining the future of AI-driven marketing workflows. As our Director of Security, you will play a critical role in safeguarding our platform, our customers, and our future. We are seeking a thoughtful, experienced leader to oversee our entire security program. In this role, you will balance rigorous compliance standards with the agility required for a high-growth technology company. You will lead a small, high-impact team and serve as the face of security for our enterprise customers. This position is not just about locking down assets; it is about enabling the business to move fast, safely, evaluating risk with nuance, and building trust with our community.

This fully remote role reports to the Chief Technology Officer and is open to candidates located anywhere in the continental US.

WHAT YOU WILL DO AT JASPER:

• Own the strategic vision and tactical execution of Jasper’s security program, managing a lean, high-performing team to protect company assets and customer data. Establish program metrics to track effectiveness and champion continuous improvement.

• Oversee and guide best practices in product security, collaborating closely with engineering teams to embed security throughout the software development life cycle. Lead security reviews, threat modeling, and ensure secure design and development of Jasper’s products and features.

• Partner with leadership and engineering to evaluate risks pragmatically. Your goal is to find "yes, but safely" solutions that allow the business to innovate while managing exposure.

• Evaluate organizational risks, prioritize remediation efforts based on real-world impact, or accept risks and exceptions on behalf of the business. Facilitate risk-based decisions.

• Lead the incident response life cycle, ensuring we have robust detection, rapid response capabilities, and clear communication protocols in place.

• Act as the escalation point for complex customer requests to maintain sales velocity and deal integrity. You will jump on calls with prospective and current enterprise customers to discuss our security practices.

• Mentor and guide your direct reports, fostering a culture of continuous learning, accountability, and professional growth.

WHAT YOU WILL BRING TO JASPER:

• 7+ years of experience in information security, with at least 3 years in a leadership role managing teams or security programs.

• Deep, hands-on experience with security frameworks (e.g., SOC2, ISO27001, HIPAA) in a cloud-native environment.

• Proven ability to communicate complex security concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders and customers. You should be comfortable representing the company in external meetings.

• Strong understanding of risk management principles (e.g., NIST CSF) and the ability to translate technical risks into business language.

• Solid foundation in cloud security (AWS/GCP/Azure), application security, and modern SaaS infrastructure.

• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with a professional and approachable demeanor that invites collaboration.

• Experience leading security at a high-growth SaaS or AI startup.

• Relevant professional certifications, such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC, or CISA.

• Experience with privacy regulations such as GDPR and CCPA.
