Job Description

Location: San Francisco

🌍 We’re making security suck less for developers.

Security tools haven’t kept up with how software is built today. They interrupt teams, slow releases, and turn security into a bottleneck instead of a capability. We built Aikido to change that. Aikido builds developer-first security products that reduce real risk without getting in the way of shipping software. We focus on what actually matters and automate the rest.

We’re taking on legacy security tools teams have been stuck with, and we’re winning. If you want to help us take market share and build products developers actually enjoy using, you’re in the right place.

Founded in 2022 by third-time founders, Aikido has $85M in the bank, a long runway ahead, and unicorn status. We’re building toward self-securing software. Join an all-star team. Take real ownership. Push boundaries. Build things that matter.

We’re looking for a Cloud Advocate to help Aikido show up in the cloud and security community in a way that actually resonates. This role sits between product and the community, helping engineers, developers, and security teams understand what we’re building and why it matters. You’ll take complex ideas across code → cloud → runtime security and turn them into content, conversations, and real engagement with the community.

If you’ve spent time as a cloud engineer, DevOps engineer, or in a technical customer-facing role, and enjoy explaining things, sharing knowledge, and building in public, this role is for you.

Responsibilities

• Break down Aikido’s platform into clear, useful explanations for developers and security teams

• Turn complex cloud and security concepts (runtime, Kubernetes, etc.) into content people actually understand

• Create demos, walkthroughs, and technical deep dives

• Be active in cloud, DevOps, and security communities (online + in-person), including speaking at events (KubeCon, AWS re:Inforce, fwd:CloudSec, etc.)

• Build relationships with engineers, security practitioners, and creators

• Write blogs, guides, and research-driven content, including real-world security insights and examples

• Help get Aikido in front of the right audiences in a credible way

• Partner with product, growth, and sales to shape how we show up and explain what we do

• Share feedback from the field to help shape product direction and messaging
