About The Team

The Information Security and Technology team is responsible for keeping Life360 safe — our systems, our employees, and the tens of millions of families who trust us with their location data. That obligation is the starting point. How we meet it is what makes this team different.

We are builders. Security controls that don't get used aren't controls. Compliance programs that create friction without reducing risk aren't programs.

We build things that work in production, earn adoption from engineering teams, and get better over time — and we use AI to do it at a scale a traditional team couldn't. We're also at an inflection point. Life360 is deploying agentic systems into how we build and operate, and the security and governance implications of that are still being worked out — by us, and by the industry.

The threat surface is expanding. The compliance frameworks are catching up. The people on this team aren't waiting for either.

About the Job We are hiring a Principal AI Security Engineer to secure Life360's AI infrastructure as it takes shape. You will sit within the AI Native Platform team, reporting directly to the CISO, working alongside the engineers designing and building each layer of the platform. This role requires both architectural depth and hands-on execution, often in the same week.

You will define the security architecture other engineers build within; the trust model, authorization framework, data boundary topology, and threat model. Guide the coherence of these patterns across the teams building model access, agent infrastructure, the knowledge layer, and the end-user platform to interoperate securely and drift doesn't introduce systemic risk. The patterns we are securing are still being defined.

You won't be doing this alone, you'll work alongside additional security engineers and the broader team building the platform, with the expectation that this function grows as the platform does. The data at stake has real weight. Life360's systems carry real-time location data and family relationship graphs for tens of millions of people.

These are crown jewels in the truest sense — irreplaceable to the families who trust us with them.
