About The Team

+ role We are building an elite team, applying frontier technologies to the world’s biggest financial problems. We’re looking for bold thinkers. Sharp problem-solvers.

Builders who are wired to make an impact. Robinhood isn’t a place for complacency, it’s where ambitious people do the best work of their careers. We’re a high-performing, fast-moving team with ethics at the center of everything we do.

Expectations are high, and so are the rewards. The Security Operations (SecOps) team protects Robinhood and its customers by detecting, investigating, and responding to security threats across our production systems, endpoints, and cloud environments. We combine detection engineering, incident response, and threat intelligence to identify emerging risks, strengthen our defenses, and reduce the impact of attacks before they reach our customers.

As we continue to evolve our security platform, we're embracing AI and automation to help our teams move faster, uncover threats more effectively, and scale our defenses against increasingly sophisticated adversaries. As the Manager of Response, Automation, Intelligence and Detection Engineering (RAID) within SecOps, you will lead teams across North America, shaping the strategy, execution, and long term evolution of our defensive security capabilities. You'll be responsible for building high performing teams, maturing our detection and incident response programs, and ensuring we stay ahead of an increasingly sophisticated threat landscape.

Working closely with Security, Engineering, Infrastructure, and Trust Safety, you'll translate emerging threats into scalable defenses while championing the use of AI, automation, and modern engineering practices to transform how we detect, investigate, and respond to security events. This is a highly visible leadership role where your decisions will directly influence Robinhood's security posture and help protect millions of customers. This role is based in our Menlo Park, CA or Denver, CO office(s), with in-person attendance expected at least 5 days per week.

At Robinhood, we believe in the power of in-person work to accelerate progress, spark innovation, and strengthen community. Our office experience is intentional, energizing, and designed to fully support high-performing teams. Applications for this role will be accepted through July 31, 2026.
