Head of Product Security & Compliance

Wand AI
Palo Alto, CA Full Time
POSTED ON 5/28/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 6/25/2026
Build the Future Workforce

Wand turns AI into labor. It enables humans and AI agents to operate together as a unified, hybrid workforce, with comprehensive management and oversight. And it’s already operating at scale inside some of the world’s largest organizations.

Wand built the world’s first Agentic Labor Infrastructure enabling governments and global enterprises to create, manage, and scale digital workforces.

Our mission is to integrate agent ecosystems into the core of work and business, unlocking a generational leap in the global economy. We’re building the infrastructure that lets humans and AI agents operate together safely, transparently, and at scale.

Join Wand in leading the Agentic Shift

Wand is building a high-performing global team who take full ownership of what they build. We lead by example, move fast, make data-aware decisions, and continuously push for more- always with a focus on delivering real value to customers.

You would be joining a world-class team that combines deep research expertise and real-world product execution, with experience spanning Deepmind, Google, Amazon, Miro, Elise AI, IBM and Accern.

Position Summary

You own security and compliance as a core product capability across the entire platform.

You will enable enterprises to safely deploy agentic workforce at scale, by embedding guardrails and policy enforcement into the platform, productizing enterprise and regulatory requirements.

You will build the security foundation, including identity management, authentication, authorization and audit. It defines how actors (humans and agents) operate: what they can access, how their behaviour is monitored, audited, governed, and trusted in real environments of some of the largest enterprises and governments.

You will also define and build security products and agents on top of the platform, such as compliance officers, auditors, and CISOs.

You will also define and build an autonomous CISO layer — agents that automate large parts of security and compliance functions.

You will work closely with Engineering and Product leadership to shape foundational platform decisions, security of our production, as well as engage directly with customer security teams and CISOs to ensure Wand can operate in sensitive and regulated environments.
