Mission
Speechify is the easiest way to listen to the world’s information. Articles on the web, documents in the cloud, books on your phone. We absorb it all and let you listen to it at your desk, on the go, at your own speed, and with tools that make learning easier, deeper, and faster. What streaming services have done for audio entertainment, we’re doing for audio information. And whatever we’re doing seems to be working. We’re #1 in our category, and experiencing exponential growth.

What You’ll Do
- Collaborate with Speechify’s Product Teams to scope projects, find ways to reduce scope to get faster feedback from customers, navigate the integration/UX tradeoffs relevant to different product teams, and deliver solutions via our cross-platform SDK
- Optimize existing functionality to ship things like faster loading and more intelligent parsing by designing more efficient abstractions and improving our algorithms
- Ship cloud functions, lightweight backend services, and jobs using Kotlin
An Ideal Candidate Should Have

Staff Security Engineer, AI & Application Security
Marcura
About the RoleThe Staff Security Engineer, AI & Application Security is the first and only dedicated security engineering hire at Marcura, and is accountable for establishing the company's security engineering capability end to end. Because this is currently the single role focused wholly on security, the mandate is deliberately broad and deliberately hands on: it spans offensive assurance, defensive engineering, secure architecture and technical governance across applications, APIs, cloud infrastructure and the group's growing and varied estate of large language models — commercial APIs, hosted models, and internally integrated AI features.Role PurposeThe role exists to give Marcura an independent, evidence based and continuously improving view of its technical risk, and to make secure delivery the default rather than an afterthought. The role holder personally executes penetration testing and AI red team exercises, designs and hardens defensive controls, reviews architecture early in the delivery lifecycle, defines secure by design patterns for LLM and agentic systems, and acts as trusted advisor to product, engineering, data and operations teams adopting AI.Operating ModelThe role operates within a hybrid model: Marcura retains eSentire as its Managed Detection and Response (MDR) partner and commissions independent external penetration testing, so the role holder is not expected to build a security operations centre or to be the sole source of assurance. Instead, the role holder owns these partnerships technically — directing them, tuning and validating their output, closing the gaps they do not cover, and ensuring internal and external testing are complementary rather than duplicative.Key ResponsibilitiesSecurity Strategy, Roadmap and Prioritisation: Define and maintain a prioritised security roadmap for Marcura in order to ensure that finite capacity in a single security headcount is spent on the highest material risk, by assessing the current posture, setting a small number of clear objectives per period, making explicit decisions on what is done in house versus deferred or delivered via external partners, and building the evidence based case for further investment.Secure Architecture and Design Review: Review the architecture and design of new and changing systems in order to prevent security weaknesses being built in rather than discovered later, by embedding lightweight threat modelling into the delivery lifecycle, defining reusable secure design patterns, and giving teams timely, pragmatic decisions rather than blocking gates.AI and LLM Security Advisory: Act as the group's trusted AI security advisor in order to enable fast, safe adoption of AI across the business, by engaging early in design, defining secure by design patterns for LLM, RAG and agentic systems, and giving teams clear, proportionate guidance rather than blanket restrictions.AI Security Framework and Standards: Build and maintain a practical AI security framework and set of engineering standards in order to make secure AI deployment repeatable and auditable as the estate grows, by aligning to OWASP LLM Top 10, MITRE ATLAS and NIST AI RMF and translating them into concrete controls, checklists and acceptance criteria, and by maintaining a live inventory of deployed models and their controls.Internal Penetration Testing Programme: Establish and personally run Marcura's internal penetration testing capability in order to provide continuous, in depth assurance between and beyond scheduled external tests, by defining scope, methodology, tooling, reporting standards and a prioritised testing calendar covering applications, APIs, cloud infrastructure and internal systems.Ideal Candidate Profile8+ years of hands-on security engineering experienceDemonstrated expertise in penetration testing and red team operationsDeep knowledge of AI/LLM security risks including prompt injection, model manipulation, and agentic system vulnerabilitiesStrong understanding of OWASP LLM Top 10, MITRE ATLAS, and NIST AI RMF frameworksExperience with cloud security across major providers (AWS, Azure, GCP)Ability to operate independently as the sole security hire while building external partnershipsExcellent communication skills to advise engineering, product, data and operations teamsStrategic mindset balanced with deep technical execution capability
