Supabase is hiring a senior Platform Security Engineer to secure its cloud platform, AWS environment, Kubernetes clusters, containers, and Linux workloads. The role focuses on threat modeling, architecture reviews, risk assessments, and implementation of scalable security controls. The engineer will partner with infrastructure, SRE, platform, and product teams to develop secure-by-default patterns without creating unnecessary delivery friction. Key technical areas include IAM, network controls, secrets, workload isolation, admission controls, runtime hardening, logging, encryption, and container escape prevention. This is a globally remote, highly autonomous role in an asynchronous engineering organization. ## Role DNA A quick view of the complexity, pace, ownership and collaboration implied by the job description. ### Job Complexity 5/5EasyHard ### Pace & Pressure 4/5RelaxedFast-paced ### Autonomy Level 5/5GuidedFull ownership ### Communication Load 5/5IndependentCollaborative AI insightThe position requires deep, hands-on security expertise across AWS, Kubernetes, Linux, containers, and large-scale developer infrastructure.

I would implement reusable guardrails such as policy-as-code, admission controls, hardened workload templates, least-privilege RBAC, image-signing checks, and clear paved paths so secure deployment becomes the easiest option. What AWS controls would you prioritize for a growing SaaS platform? I would prioritize strong account boundaries, least-privilege IAM, centralized logging, detection coverage, encryption controls, network segmentation, secure secrets handling, and continuous configuration monitoring. I would also ensure findings are risk-ranked and assigned through an operational remediation process. How do you assess whether a container escape risk is material? I would evaluate exploit preconditions, host configuration, container privileges, kernel exposure, runtime settings, workload sensitivity, network reachability, and potential blast radius. A theoretically possible issue becomes a priority when it has realistic exploitability and meaningful impact on production systems or customer data. Describe your approach to threat modeling a new platform service. I would identify assets, trust boundaries, identities, data flows, entry points, dependencies, and likely attacker goals. I would then document abuse cases, rank them by likelihood and impact, agree on practical mitigations with the owning team, and convert decisions into architecture requirements or automated controls. How do you communicate a high-severity infrastructure security issue to technical and non-technical stakeholders? I communicate the affected systems, exploitability, business impact, immediate containment actions, ownership, and remediation timeline in concise language. For technical teams, I provide actionable implementation detail; for leadership, I focus on risk level, customer exposure, decisions needed, and progress updates. Opportunity details ## About this role. ### About Supabase Supabase is the Postgres development platform, built by developers for developers. We provide a complete backend solution including Database, Auth, Storage, Edge Functions, Realtime, and Vector Search. All services are deeply integrated and designed for growth. Start in minutes with a fully managed, scalable Postgres database and a suite of tools that eliminate the complexity of backend development. Use one or use all—Supabase gives teams the flexibility of open source with the speed and simplicity of a modern platform, so they can move fast without sacrificing control. ### What Are We Looking For We’re looking for a Platform Security Engineer to join our team and help strengthen the security of Supabase’s infrastructure, cloud platform, Kubernetes environments, and containerized workloads as we continue to scale. You’ll work closely with infrastructure, platform, SRE, product engineering, and technical leadership, helping us proactively reduce risk across the systems that run Supabase. This role is ideal for someone who has deep hands-on experience with AWS, Kubernetes, containers, Linux, and large cloud environments and is excited about securing developer infrastructure without slowing teams down. Success in this role means improving the security posture of the platform through pragmatic engineering, clear technical judgment, and scalable guardrails. ### What You’ll Be Responsible for In this role, you’ll: * Identify and reduce security risk across AWS, Kubernetes, containerized workloads, and platform infrastructure. * Conduct threat modeling, architecture reviews, and technical risk assessments for platform and infrastructure systems. * Partner closely with infrastructure, platform, and SRE teams to design practical controls and secure-by-default patterns. * Improve Kubernetes and container security across areas like workload isolation, RBAC, admission control, secrets, network policy, and runtime hardening. * Assess container runtime and Linux isolation risks, including capabilities, seccomp/AppArmor, namespaces, cgroups, and container escape scenarios. * Strengthen AWS security posture across IAM, account boundaries, network controls, logging, detection, encryption, and service configuration. * Build scalable mechanisms such as automation, guardrails, paved paths, detection, secure defaults, and review frameworks. * Distinguish between theoretical risk and material platform risk to prioritize security efforts effectively. ### You Might Be a Good Fit If You * Have senior-level experience in platform security, cloud security, infrastructure security, container security, or security engineering. * Have deep practical experience with AWS, Kubernetes, containers, and Linux security fundamentals. * Have worked in large cloud environments, multi-cluster Kubernetes setups, developer platforms, SaaS platforms, or high-scale infrastructure teams. * Can reason clearly about identity, networking, workload isolation, runtime security, secrets, supply chain, and blast radius. * Communicate clearly across both technical and non-technical audiences, especially in a written, asynchronous environment. * Are able to manage security efforts across complex projects with various stakeholders * Are energized by solving real-world infrastructure security problems and navigating ambiguity while moving quickly. * Prefer building guardrails, automation, and secure defaults over creating unnecessary process or bottlenecks. ### What We Offer * Fully Remote We hire globally. We believe you can do your best work from anywhere. There are no Supabase offices, but we provide a WeWork membership or co-working allowance you can use anywhere in the world. * ESOP Every team member receives ESOP (equity ownership) in the company. We want everyone to share in the upside of what we’re building together. * Tech Allowance Use this budget to set up your ideal work environment—laptop, monitor, headphones, or whatever helps you do your best work. * Health Benefits Supabase covers 100% of health insurance for employees and 80% for dependents, wherever you are. Your wellbeing and your family’s health are important to us. * Annual Off-Sites Once a year, the entire company gathers in a new city for a week of connection, collaboration, and fun. It’s a highlight of our year. * Flexible Work We operate asynchronously and trust you to manage your own time. You know what needs to be done and when. * Professional Development Every team member receives an annual education allowance to spend on learning—courses, books, conferences, or anything that supports your growth. ### About the Team Supabase was born-remote and open-source-first. We believe our globally distributed team is our secret weapon in building tools developers love. * ~400 team members * 60+ countries * 20+ languages spoken * Over $1B raised (including our $500M Series F) * 540,000+ community members We move fast, build in public, and use what we ship. If it’s in your project, we probably use it in ours too. We believe deeply in the open-source ecosystem and strive to support—not replace—existing tools and communities.
