Security & public safety jobs in Jacksonville, FL

About the role

We’re hiring a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) to own and elevate our security program at FloatMe. The ideal candidate should be very hands-on, not just a “policy manager”. We need someone who can sit in a compliance review one hour and be configuring security tooling themselves the next. Infrastructure - This candidate will have stewardship over our infrastructure including individual computer hardware, office infrastructure, cloud infrastructure, code security and infrastructure, app architecture and security, AI security, and critical partnerships architectures. Security - This candidate’s stewardship requires expertise in securing all of the above areas, help us pursue SOC2 compliance, and maintain the highest security for our users and staff. You’ll own our security roadmap, our compliance certifications, our partner security reviews, and the day-to-day technical operations that keep our members’ data safe. Hands-On Required - We’re a small, nimble team, which means this role requires the flexibility to switch gears between tactical execution and strategic planning. This role reports to our SVP, Engineering. If you’re excited to join a fast-moving fintech where you can build something meaningful, we’d love to hear from you!

What you'll bring

• A driver and an “owner”, not a passenger -
• You make the plans for your area of ownership, you seek the buy-in you need, you propose the alternatives, you drive projects to completion, even if it means you do a big percentage of the work yourself.
• You will have support, but you will be getting “in the mud” with the rest of us.
• A hands-on and self-driven security leader —
• You’re as comfortable writing a detection rule in your SIEM as you are presenting risk to the board.
• You don’t plan to delegate everything, hands-on as much as you can, and you don’t wait to be asked to own this space, you actually and truly must “own it” completely.
• A compliance expert —
• You have deep, practical experience leading SOC 2 audits and navigating financial services frameworks like GLBA and PCI DSS.
• You know what auditors actually look for.
• A skilled communicator —
• You can translate complex technical risk into plain language for bank partners, executives, and non-technical teammates.
• You’re a trusted voice in the room.
