Lead and build an AI team to develop reliable AI-powered capabilities and core AI experiences across Zafran's platform.

Our Mission: To stop the exploitation of vulnerabilities, everywhere.
What makes us different: Zafran de-risks 90% of critical vulnerabilities overnight across your hybrid environment and utilizes Agentic Capabilities and your existing security tools to rapidly mitigate and remediate the 10% most likely to be exploited. We have a deep belief that cybersecurity defence should move as fast as attackers do, and we provide an agentic response to agentic attacks.
Who’s behind us : Zafran is a Post C, hyper growing start-up, backed by Cyberstarts, Sequoia Capital, Menlo Ventures. We’re one of the fastest-growing companies in the industry, scaling to meet demand from the world’s most advanced, security-obsessed organizations.
We’re serious about our mission- so expect work that matters, teammates who challenge and inspire you, and plenty of fun along the way!

Zafran is building the next generation of vulnerability and risk management. We bring together complex security data and turn it into clear investigation, prioritization, and action.
We’re creating a new AI team to build the shared infrastructure, tools, and standards that enable teams across R&D to develop reliable AI-powered capabilities. The team will also own and deliver core AI experiences used across Zafran’s platform and organization.
We’re looking for an experienced AI Team Lead to build and lead this team — someone who combines strong engineering leadership with hands-on experience building production AI systems and platforms.
AI will become a shared capability across Zafran’s products and engineering organization. This team will create the foundation that helps every R&D team build AI features faster and more safely, while also owning strategic AI experiences for the company.
This is an opportunity to shape Zafran’s AI architecture, engineering standards, and team from the ground up.
