Sandbox Banking (https://sandboxbanking.com) is looking for an exceptional security program manager who wants to help accelerate banking innovation across the world! We are a remote team with employees across the US.

Successful candidates will be excited to maintain and improve every aspect of our SaaS company’s security posture! Deep understanding of organizational/human behavior, policy design, employee training, third-party audit processes, cloud architecture, software engineering, customer due diligence, red-team penetration testing, and vulnerability discovery/remediation program management will be required. The individual will be considered a member of the Sandbox Banking leadership team, and their input will significantly influence product and technology strategy.

Security is never an after-thought for us. Our bank customers trust us to connect their most sensitive data sources – we’ve always treated the safeguarding of their systems/data as both a business necessity and ethical responsibility.

Successful candidates will be expected to demonstrate relevant experience working in a dynamic environment dealing with complex challenges, and continuously communicate with all members of the business to achieve security objectives.

Sandbox is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.

Product

We provide a low-code integration builder called Glyue for banks and fintechs to quickly connect their systems. US regional/community banks and credit unions are looking to overhaul the digital experiences they deliver to customers. Increasingly, they solve this challenge by sourcing software from fintech companies that specialize in building and operating financial services software. Unfortunately, distributing new software to FIs has historically been a long and painful process because of data security and system integration hurdles.

Sandbox empowers FIs and fintech vendors to quickly and safely build new integrations – our Glyue application lets anyone who can use Excel formulas connect banking systems. Furthermore, the platform’s fine-grained authentication and permissions model provides FIs with strict control over which people/software can access particular banking data and operations.

FIs and fintechs love the platform. FIs are able to quickly and cost-effectively leverage cutting-edge solutions without compromising on integration; fintechs don’t need to spend time and money on activities outside of core product development and distribution.
