Role: Chief Information Security Officer 

About the Role:  
We are seeking an exceptional Chief Information Security Officer to join our pioneering team as an Equity Co-Founder at the forefront of native blockchain execution. At Autheo, we are building the platform that redefines decentralized computation, delivering sub-microsecond execution speeds, billions of transactions per second throughput, and mathematically proven security against adversaries.

You will own enterprise-wide security strategy and execution — protecting Layer 0/1/2 infrastructure, DeFi protocols, cross-chain bridges, confidential smart contracts, post-quantum cryptography, AI/LLM endpoints, and consumer APIs against classical, quantum, and nation-state threats while achieving SOC 2 Type II, HITRUST, ISO 27001, GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, and EU AI Act compliance.

Key Responsibilities 
• Define and enforce zero-trust, post-quantum security architecture across the entire stack  
• Lead hands-on smart-contract audits, formal verification, and red-team operations  
• Direct post-quantum migration (ML-KEM, ML-DSA, SLH-DSA) for consensus, transport, and enclaves  
• Secure trillion-parameter LLM training and inference against model theft, poisoning, and prompt attacks  
• Own incident response, blockchain forensics, crisis management, and bug-bounty program  
• Build and run internal red team targeting bridges, oracles, and AI APIs  
• Drive privacy-by-design: ε=0.5 differential privacy, zk-proof lineage, FHE execution, and right-to-be-forgotten  
• Deliver audit-ready compliance frameworks and represent Autheo in regulatory engagements  
• Hire, mentor, and scale the security organization as we grow from 50 to 500+ engineers  

Research, Innovation & Thought Leadership
• Publish breakthroughs in post-quantum blockchain, AI security, or private DeFi at IEEE S&P, Real World Crypto, Black Hat  
• Keynote at Black Hat, DEF CON, or RCC 2026 on “Securing the Post-Quantum Sovereign Internet”

Requirements – Must Have  
• 10+ years in information security with ≥5 years as CISO/VP Security at a blockchain, fintech, or infrastructure unicorn  
• Hands-on experience shipping and defending Layer 1/2 protocols and DeFi products at >$10 B TVL  
• Proven leadership of post-quantum cryptography migrations and/or AI/LLM security programs  
• Track record achieving SOC 2 Type II, HITRUST, or equivalent in crypto/AI environments  
• Deep expertise in applied cryptography, formal methods, and privacy engineering  

Nice to Have  
• CISSP, CISM, CIPP/E + publications or patents in crypto/AI security  
• Experience testifying or engaging with regulators on crypto or AI Act compliance  
• Former founder or early security leader at a unicorn exit  

First 90-Day Deliverables  
• Complete security + compliance assessment with board-level roadmap  
• Launch post-quantum signatures on mainnet consensus and APIs  
• Deploy enterprise-grade LLM hardening and differential privacy on training data  
• Achieve SOC 2 Type II readiness and pass external audit  
• Stand up internal red team and first bug-bounty cycle  
• Hire first two security leads (Privacy + AppSec)  
• Accepted keynote at Black Hat or Real World Crypto 2026  

Top candidates: Full-day executive war-room session + live smart-contract audit + post-quantum migration review with founder team.
