About the Role
We’re looking for a
Product Security Engineer
to join our team and help strengthen how security is built into Supabase’s products, platform, and engineering workflows as we continue to scale. You’ll work closely with
software engineers, infrastructure teams, and technical leadership
, helping us proactively reduce risk earlier in the development lifecycle and ship securely by default.
This role is ideal for someone who thrives in async, fast-paced environments and is excited about building developer tools that scale to millions. Success in this role means improving the security posture of the product without becoming a blocker to speed, autonomy, or builder velocity.
What You’ll Own
In this role, you’ll:
•
Identify
and close gaps across application security, secure design review, and vulnerability management.
•
Conduct
threat modeling, secure design reviews, and code reviews to identify practical remediation paths.
•
Partner
closely with engineering teams to provide product-focused security expertise and shape a modern security program.
•
Mature
how we think about security in a developer-first environment, balancing pragmatism with strong technical judgment.
•
Distinguish
between theoretical risk and material business risk to prioritize security efforts effectively.
•
Improve
security posture through scalable mechanisms like tooling, automation, secure defaults, and developer-friendly guardrails.
•
Support
security incident response by helping triage, investigate, and coordinate remediation for product and platform security issues.
•
Participate
in security on-call rotations, helping respond to urgent security events with clear judgment and calm execution.
•
Help manage and mature
our bug bounty and vulnerability disclosure processes, including triage, validation, prioritization, and coordination with engineering teams.
You Might Be a Good Fit If You
• Have
strong experience
in product security, application security, or security engineering.
• Are comfortable working with
cloud-native, developer tools, SaaS, platform, or infrastructure products
.
• Communicate clearly across both technical and non-technical audiences, especially in a
written, asynchronous environment
.
• Are energized by
solving real-world problems for developers
and navigating ambiguity while moving quickly.
• Possess a deep understanding of application security fundamentals, including
auth, session management, APIs, and secrets handling
.
• Have experience with vulnerability triage,
bug bounty programs
, responsible disclosure, or security incident response.
• Are comfortable participating in potential
security on-call rotation
and can balance urgency, risk, and practical remediation.
• Have experience with or interest in
Postgres, Kubernetes, or building security guardrails
that enable rather than enforce.

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

•
Flexible Work
We operate asynchronously and trust you to manage your own time. You know what needs to be done and when.
•

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.
