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 team’s mission is to protect Robinhood and its customers by rapidly anticipating, detecting, and responding to security threats, while continuously assuring and strengthening our defences to minimize the impact of risks and ensure business continuity.

What you’ll do

• Operate a wide range of industry-leading vulnerability scanners, their inputs and outputs, and their configurations.
• Improve agentic AI systems to further scale vulnerability triage, context gathering, and remediation workflows.
• Collaborate closely with service owners to remediate vulnerabilities that pose a risk to the company or its customers. 

What you bring

• Currently enrolled in a full-time, degree-seeking program with an expected graduation date in Winter 2026/Spring 2027.
• Security research skills. A solid understanding of security concepts, how vulnerabilities are exploited, and how they are mitigated.
• Strong technical foundation in coding (Python, Go preferred), as well as scripting and automation. 
• Solid familiarity with modern cloud environments and their unique security challenges, particularly AWS.
• Hands-on experience with generative AI models, particularly agentic AI approaches.

What we offer
