CISO

TL;DR: We're looking for an exceptional security leader and executive to build and run the function that will make Lovable the most trusted AI-powered software creation platform

Why Lovable?

Lovable lets anyone and everyone build software with any language. From solopreneurs to Fortune 100 teams, millions of people use Lovable to transform raw ideas into real products - fast. We are at the forefront of a foundational shift in software creation, which means you have an unprecedented opportunity to change the way the digital world works. Lovable-built applications and websites are visited hundreds of millions of times a month, and our enterprise footprint is compounding fast. And we're just getting started.

We're a small, talent-dense team building a generation-defining company from Stockholm. We value extreme ownership, high velocity, and low-ego collaboration. We seek out people who care deeply, ship fast, and are eager to make a dent in the world.

What we're looking for

• 10+ years in information security, including 3+ years leading security at a high-growth SaaS or platform company
• A track record of building security programs from the ground up, including scaling through SOC 2, ISO 27001, or equivalent enterprise frameworks
• Deep technical fluency across cloud, application, and infrastructure security — comfortable going hands-on, not just directing others
• Experience partnering with engineering, legal, and sales to close enterprise deals and pass customer due diligence
• The judgment and communication skill to translate technical risk into business decisions for an executive team and board
• Experience securing platforms that generate or execute user-created code, or prior experience as a founding security hire at a startup

What you'll do

• Own Lovable's security strategy and risk management framework end to end, reporting directly to the executive team
• Build and lead the security organization, starting with our first security engineers and analysts
• Get Lovable certified against the frameworks our enterprise customers require, including SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001
• Own application, infrastructure, and cloud security — secure SDLC, vulnerability management, incident response
• Partner with Sales and Customer Success to move security reviews and questionnaires from blocker to closer
• Build the security-first culture and training that lets a fast-moving engineering org stay fast without cutting corners
• Be the person our team, our customers, and regulators call when something needs an answer
