We need someone with 3+ years of hands-on information security experience who has strong fundamentals in application and/or cloud security (AWS/GCP). You should be comfortable operating with high autonomy in a fast-moving startup environment and have a track record of building and improving security programs from the ground up. Bonus points if you have experience securing AI agents/LLM systems or enterprise compliance experience (SOC 2, ISO 27001).
What you'll do:
Own security reviews and threat modeling for new and existing product surfaces across Nooks' AI-native platform
Build and improve core security processes including secure SDLC, detection & response
Harden cloud and application infrastructure and drive remediation of high-priority risks
Help define how we secure AI agents and govern their use — including guardrails, data exposure, prompt-injection, and abuse risks
Support enterprise customer trust through compliance (SOC 2) and customer-facing security needs
Partner closely with product and infra engineering to embed security into how we ship
About Nooks
Nooks is an applied AI lab building the Agent Workspace for GTM (Go-To-Market).
Nooks designs AI agents that operate across the full sales action set — from account strategy to prospect research and outreach. The company's mission is to 10x every seller by automating the busywork so they can focus on what humans do best: building real relationships and closing deals.
With a combination of AI tools, automation, and real-time collaboration, Nooks transforms sales reps from manual laborers into scientists. Instead of manually writing hundreds of emails, researching hundreds of websites and LinkedIn profiles, and making hundreds of calls, reps can focus on the parts of their job that actually require people — talking to customers, being creative, and problem-solving.
Key highlights:
Over 1,500 customers rely on Nooks, including sophisticated sales organizations at Notion, HubSpot, Cursor, Rippling, Deel, and ZoomInfo
Raised $70M+ from top VCs including Kleiner Perkins (their first sales-tech investment in over a decade), Tola Capital, and Lachy Groom
Tripled ARR each year for 3 years running
Teams using Nooks often see a 2-3x increase in rep productivity within weeks
Customers have cut research time by 90% and more than doubled email-sourced pipeline
Nooks brings signals, account history, and next-best actions into one multi-channel system for AI sequencing so outbound stays relevant as companies scale. The platform covers dialing, prospecting, sequencing, campaigns, and autonomous agent workflows — enabling sales teams to focus on what they do best: having meetings and closing deals.
