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.
As the Security Policy Management Lead, you will play a critical role in shaping and maintaining the foundation of our enterprise’s security and privacy governance. You will own the lifecycle of our corporate-wide security and privacy policies, standards, and procedures—ensuring they remain current, actionable, and aligned with industry trends, evolving regulatory expectations, and business needs. This role is central to how our organization manages technology-related risk, working cross-functionally with policy owners, subject matter experts, corporate compliance, and enterprise risk management teams to build and sustain a robust governance framework.
Beyond policy upkeep, you'll lead the security exception program—tracking temporary deviations from policy and ensuring each exception is evaluated, documented, and resolved in a risk-informed manner. Success in this role requires a strong understanding of the interplay between technology, security, and privacy, paired with exceptional organizational skills and a passion for problem-solving.
You will champion efficiency in policy management processes, identify bottlenecks, and proactively drive improvements through both collaboration and automation. Your ability to build strong partnerships across technical, legal, compliance, and governance teams will be vital in supporting Robinhood secure and continued growth.
While this role is currently an individual contributor within the Robinhood Security Risk and Resilience organization, you will build a cross divisional team of experts and partners to deliver on the program objectives. As the company grows and needs are identified you may be asked to build and supervise a small team.
This role is based in our New York City office, with in-person attendance expected at least 3 days per week.
