Founded in 2017, Obsidian Security was created to close a critical gap: securing the SaaS applications where modern business happens—platforms like Microsoft 365, Salesforce, and hundreds more.    Backed by top investors including Greylock, Norwest Venture Partners, and IVP, we’ve built a complete SaaS security platform to reduce risk, detect and respond to threats, and prevent breaches at the source. Our team includes leaders who helped define the categories of endpoint and identity security at CrowdStrike, Okta, Cylance, and Carbon Black.    Now, we’re transforming how SaaS is secured—in the era of agentic AI.    Today, Obsidian is trusted by global enterprises like Snowflake, T-Mobile, and Pure Storage. We protect more than 200 organizations across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand—including many of the world’s largest Fortune 1000 and Global 2000 companies.   With strong global momentum, a growing partner ecosystem including SentinelOne, Databricks, and Google Cloud, and a major fundraise on the horizon, we’re scaling quickly toward long-term growth and IPO readiness. Join us as we define the future of SaaS security!

About the Role

We are looking for a Director of Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) to lead the evolution of our production reliability function. This role will partner closely with the Director of DevOps, who owns developer enablement, platform scalability and reliability, infrastructure security and compliance, and automation. You will be responsible for operationalizing reliability at the service/module level, embedding SREs into core product teams, and ensuring that reliability is built into every layer of our product as we scale.

You will collaborate with Engineering, Security, and Support to define and enforce service-level objectives (SLOs), lead the incident management program, and help establish a culture of accountability and operational excellence.
