We're on a mission to make everyone more productive at work, and our product has helped millions of people — and increasingly, the world's largest enterprises — build businesses through the power of automation and AI. Zapier is an AI-forward company building AI-enabled products on top of frontier models, and a new generation of more capable, more autonomous models is reshaping both the products we ship and the threats we defend against.

You will lead a team of Application Security (Product Security), Infrastructure Security, Detection & Response, and GRC engineers.
