At Roofr, we’re obsessed with our customers. We constantly gather feedback to shape, prioritize, and launch the products they truly need. That’s what makes Roofr’s CRM special. We started by building essential sales tools like aerial roof measurements and digital sales proposals. But when our customers asked for a simple, affordable way to manage and scale their entire businesses, we listened. So, we created a CRM that connects these solutions—along with payments, material ordering, and more—into a seamless, powerful platform. With a clear roadmap ahead, we’re excited to continue expanding and leading the market with innovative products.We have an amazing culture, strong financials, and best-in-class company metrics.

You'll contribute directly to improving Roofr's security posture — sharpening what's already in place and driving it forward as the company scales. You'll own the tools and processes that detect and stop threats, partner with engineering on secure-by-design practices, and act as the front-line responder when something goes wrong.What You’ll Get to Do Own design and hardening of security infrastructure across cloud environments - network segmentation, firewalls, IDS/IPS, VPNs, WAF, and endpoint detection and response (EDR)Lead vulnerability management end to end: run assessments and authenticated scans, triage and prioritize by exploitability and blast radius, and drive remediation SLAs with engineeringBuild and tune detection content (SIEM/SOAR rules, alerting logic) against real attack techniques - not just default vendor signaturesAct as incident commander for security incidents: contain, eradicate, run forensics, and write the post-incident reviewThreat-model new features and infrastructure changes before they ship - catch design-level risk, not just implementation bugsOwn IAM hygiene and cloud security posture (least privilege, key/secret management, network boundaries) across production AWS accountsWrite, enforce, and maintain security policies and standards - own them as living controls,



not documents that sit in a driveOwn Roofr's compliance program end to end: map controls to NIST CSF 2.0, SOC 2, and CCPA/CPRA, run the audits, close the gaps, and keep evidence current between themRun tabletop exercises and incident playbook drillsPush secure-by-design practices into engineering workflows - threat modeling in design review, security requirements in the SDLC, not a gate bolted on at the endWhat You’ll Bring to the Role Qualifications Bachelor's degree in computer science, IT, cybersecurity, or equivalent hands-on experience5-8+ years in security engineering, incident response, or related infrastructure roles, including time as the primary or senior responder on real incidentsCertifications are a strong plus — CISSP, OSCP, GCIH, or CEHTechnical Deep network security fundamentals - firewalls, VPNs, routing/segmentation, network boundaries, TLS, DNS, and how attackers actually abuse themHands-on cloud security in AWS - IAM policy design, VPC architecture, KMS/secrets management, Cloud Trail/Guard Duty or equivalentReal incident response experience - triage, containment, forensics, root cause, not just theory from a courseWorking knowledge of SIEM/SOAR tooling, writing detection logic (Python/Bash), and building your own tooling when nothing off-the-shelf fitsFluent in compliance frameworks - NIST CSF 2.0, SOC 2, and CCPA/CPRA - and translating controls into policy people actually followStrong software engineer at heart - comfortable reading and writing real application code, not just scripts, so you can dig into the codebase directly instead of filing a ticket and waitingConfident being the only security voice in the room - makes the call and owns itTranslates technical risk into business terms leadership can actually act onCalm and decisive under incident pressure; documents as they go, not afterOwnership-oriented; builds the process thatdoesn't exist yet instead of waiting for oneStrong individual contributor who wants to stay hands-on - this role builds the foundation directly,



it doesn't lead from the sideBonus Points: Experience using AI/LLM tooling for threat intelligence - alert triage, detection summarization, or hunting workflows - not required, but a plus for a team building modern security practice from scratchFamiliarity with GDPR - a plus as Roofr's customer base grows internationallyExperience with PHP/Laravel - a plus for digging into Roofr's own codebase directly, not requiredComfortable around Postgres - helpful, not requiredOur compensation ranges are built using multiple market benchmarks and reflect both the scope of the role and current market data.
