As a Product Security Architect , you will shape how security is built, not just review it. You’ll work closely with engineering to influence architecture, guide design decisions, and ensure security is embedded across Gong’s platform from the earliest stages where decisions matter most, not just where they are validated. You’ll take on complex, real-world challenges across cloud-native systems and AI-driven features, where security must evolve alongside scale and speed.

A platform operating at a meaningful scale - You’ll deal with high-volume data, distributed systems, and production environments where security decisions have immediate and visible impact. The opportunity to shape a growing security domain - Product security at Gong is still evolving, giving you the ability to influence direction, introduce new ideas, and build things the right way. A culture that values practical, engineering-driven security - Security is approached with a focus on real risk and practical solutions, not just compliance or process.
