Manager, Application Security

About the role

At Clari + Salesloft, our Manager, Application Security will be pivotal to our company's success. You will be a foundational leader within our information security team, tasked with building and leading a world-class group of AppSec Engineers. Your mission is to move beyond tactical fixes and architect a secure-by-default culture across our entire engineering organization. As a leader at Salesloft, you will have radical ownership of the AppSec function. We are looking for a "manager-of-one" who can navigate ambiguity and execute a long-term vision without needing a playbook provided for them. On a day-to-day basis, you will: Lead & Scale: Recruit, mentor, and manage a high-performing team of Application Security Engineers. Program Ownership: Design and execute the long-term AppSec roadmap, including Secure SDLC, threat modeling, and automated guardrails. Strategic Influence: Serve as a peer to Engineering Leaders, ensuring security is a first-class citizen in the product roadmap. Incident Management: Act as the primary escalation point for application-level security events, leading the team through containment and root-cause analysis. Vendor & Community Management: Oversee our Bug Bounty program, external penetration testing partners, and security tooling vendors (SAST, DAST, SCA). Evangelize Security: Build a "Security Champions" program to scale security knowledge across the broader development team. In addition to working with amazing colleagues who exemplify our 'team over self' core value, you will also have the opportunity to grow and evolve a fast moving Application Security function while making a real difference in reducing risk and enabling developers to deliver secure code faster. You will have an opportunity to make a difference.
