Head of Security & IT

Description

Join us in shaping the future of online protection.

Guardio protects millions of people from the threats they never see coming, like phishing scams, financial fraud, and the small cracks in online security that cause big problems.

As a B2C company, we build smart, intuitive tools that help individuals and small businesses stay safe, effortlessly. We’re a fast-growing team of over 100, united by a shared goal: to make digital life safer for everyone. Our culture moves quickly but stays human, rooted in transparency, feedback, and collaboration. And yes, we have a good time while we’re at it, with team dinners and traditional karaoke nights.

If you’re ready to work on meaningful challenges, grow fast, and help shape what online safety looks like for the next million users, you’re in the right place.

So, what's the job?

We are looking for a Head of Information Security & IT to join us.

You will:

• Own and operate Guardio’s Cyber Security posture — across corporate, production, and product domains.
• Lead the full lifecycle of security work: from risk assessment, through configuration and tooling, vendors and incident response.
• Manage the internal IT infrastructure — including team members, external vendors, endpoints, SaaS etc.
• Enhance the Guardio product suite by keeping tabs on emerging threats and new security tools’ capabilities
• Partner with Engineering, Product, Legal, and HR to create security awareness and embed secure policies and best practices across the org.
• Support compliance and audit needs as required (SOC2, etc.), in collaboration with external consultants when needed.

Sounds great! Am I the right fit?



We think you might be, if you check most of the boxes below:

• You’ve previously owned or led infosec functions in a high-growth tech company or security-first environment.
• You have deep, practical knowledge of cloud security, endpoint management, and SaaS security
• You’re confident responding to incidents and enjoy getting your hands dirty with configurations and triage.
• You’ve managed IT operations, whether internally or through partners — and you know how to build systems that scale.
• You’re fluent in the language of risk and compliance but prefer pragmatism over paperwork.
• You’re passionate about new technologies, aware of emerging threats, and naturally bring that insight into your team.
• You thrive in fast-paced, ambiguous environments and know how to prioritize what really matters.
