About The Position

Abridge is seeking an experienced and highly motivated Senior Enterprise Security Engineer to join their team as one of the first engineers on the Abridge Security team. This role involves implementing and operating enterprise security controls to protect identities, endpoints, SaaS applications, and corporate infrastructure. The position requires cross-functional collaboration with IT, Security, Legal, Compliance, and People teams to engineer scalable security solutions. It's a greenfield opportunity to architect the future of Enterprise Security at Abridge, focusing on building from scratch and empowering employees while reducing risk.

Requirements

7+ years in enterprise security, identity security, corporate security, or adjacent security engineering domains, with a demonstrated track record of hands-on implementation and operational ownership.
Strong hands-on depth in identity and access management, including SSO, OAuth/OIDC, SCIM, authentication protocols, access lifecycle management, and identity governance. You understand how to design and operate Zero Trust architectures in modern enterprise environments.
Experience designing and operating endpoint security programs at scale, including EDR, MDM, device compliance, and fleet management across macOS, Windows, and Linux.
Deep familiarity with securing cloud-native environments (GCP or AWS) and managing the security posture of a large, evolving SaaS estate. You understand the identity-centric nature of modern enterprise risk.
Strong scripting and automation skills (Python, Go, or similar). You write clean, maintainable code and believe that manual processes are technical debt.
Demonstrated ability to partner with IT, HR, Legal, and Compliance to deliver security outcomes through influence, not mandates. You build tools and processes people actually enjoy using.
Strong communicator who can translate technical security topics into clear terms for audiences ranging from engineers to executive leadership.
You have a bias for action and a knack for navigating ambiguity. You understand how to weigh security risks against business velocity, choosing solutions that empower employees while maintaining a strong security posture.

Nice To Haves

Experience building or scaling an enterprise security function from 0 → 1 at a high-growth startup.
Worked in a regulated industry such as healthcare, fintech, or life sciences and understand frameworks like HIPAA, SOC 2, or HITRUST.
Experience applying Generative AI to enterprise security operations—whether for automating access reviews, triaging alerts, or scaling security awareness.
Energized by enabling a fast-growing business to move quickly and securely, treating security as a platform service rather than a gate.
Participate in the security community via talks, papers, blogs, or open-source contributions.
Experience with infrastructure-as-code is a plus.
