Our platform spans the full spectrum of institutional-grade solutions—from single-asset exposures to diversified and thematic strategies—with a goal of providing every investor with access to the hyper-expanding digital asset universe.  Our firm offers a rare combination of decades of traditional finance work experience and digital asset leadership that brings an institutional mindset to the maturing digital asset industry.

Position Summary

Grayscale Investments is seeking a Cybersecurity Engineer to build, implement, and maintain security capabilities across our technology platforms.

You will be responsible for implementing security controls, automating security processes, and integrating security throughout the software development lifecycle across cloud infrastructure, enterprise applications, AI-enabled systems, and modern engineering platforms. This role is instrumental in ensuring Grayscale's technology environment remains secure, resilient, scalable, and aligned with regulatory expectations.

Working closely with engineering, product, and compliance teams, you will help embed secure-by-design principles into technology solutions, strengthen cloud and application security, improve detection and monitoring capabilities, and support the secure adoption of emerging technologies across Grayscale.

Responsibilities:

- Partner with engineering teams to implement security controls and secure design patterns across cloud infrastructure, enterprise applications, developer platforms, and AI-enabled systems.
- Build and operationalize security controls that protect sensitive data, including identity and access management, data protection, network security, logging, monitoring, and auditability.
- Participate in threat modeling, architecture reviews, and security assessments for applications, cloud platforms, and emerging technologies, identifying and mitigating security risks before deployment.
- Implement and maintain security controls for cloud platforms, APIs, developer tooling, and third-party technologies.
- Build monitoring, detection, alerting, and incident response capabilities in partnership with engineering and security operations teams.
- Integrate security tooling and automation into CI/CD pipelines and cloud-native engineering workflows using Infrastructure-as-Code and policy-as-code practices.
- Support secure software development by partnering with engineering teams to embed security throughout the Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SSDLC).
- Assess and mitigate technical and operational risks associated with cloud platforms, enterprise applications, AI-enabled systems, and third-party providers.
- Partner with compliance, audit, and business stakeholders to ensure technology solutions meet regulatory, control, and governance requirements.
- Contribute to the development of security standards, engineering patterns, automation, and operational best practices across the organization.
- Stay current on emerging security threats, technologies, and industry best practices while helping strengthen Grayscale's long-term security capabilities.

Qualifications:

- 5+ years of experience in cybersecurity, security engineering, cloud security, application security, DevSecOps, or a related engineering discipline.
- Experience implementing security controls within cloud-native environments, preferably AWS.
- Strong understanding of security fundamentals including identity and access management, data protection, network security, vulnerability management, monitoring, and incident response.
- Experience integrating security into software development workflows, including CI/CD pipelines and Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SSDLC) practices.
- Strong programming and scripting capabilities (e.g., Python, Terraform, Infrastructure-as-Code) with the ability to automate and validate security controls.
- Experience with cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, APIs, and modern application architectures.
- Experience with security tooling such as SIEM/SOAR, vulnerability management, cloud security, endpoint security, application security, or detection engineering platforms.
- Experience conducting threat modeling, security assessments, and architecture reviews for modern applications and cloud platforms.
- Familiarity with AI/ML systems, including LLMs and AI-enabled application architectures, is a plus.
- Experience operating in regulated environments with strong control, audit, and compliance requirements, preferably within financial services.
- Strong communication skills with the ability to collaborate effectively across engineering, infrastructure, product, and security teams to solve complex technical challenges.

We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.

- **Founded**: 2013
- **Founders**: Not publicly available (founded by the team at Digital Currency Group, which remains the parent company)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Financial Services / Crypto Asset Management
- **Target customers**: Institutional investors, financial advisors, allocators, and accredited investors (B2B/Institutional focus)
- **Mission or purpose**: To transform disruptive digital technologies into accessible investment opportunities and deepen understanding of the crypto landscape.

## Products & Services
- **Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC)**: A publicly-traded Bitcoin investment fund that was the first of its kind, allowing investors to gain Bitcoin exposure through a traditional security.
- **Grayscale Ethereum Trust (ETHE)**: The first SEC-reporting Ethereum investment fund, offering similar regulated exposure to Ether.

- **Grayscale Research & Education**: Proprietary insights, market reports, and educational resources published to help investors navigate the digital asset space.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed (private company; GBTC alone is a publicly traded trust)
- **Key Metric**: Annual Revenue of **$156.0 million** (LinkedIn estimate)
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Backed by Digital Currency Group (DCG), with institutional-grade partners including industry-leading custodians, auditors, and legal advisors. Key client talent sourced from firms like Goldman Sachs (6 hires), J.P. Morgan (4 hires), EY (4 hires), and BNY (4 hires).
- **Growth Signals**: 25.0% year-over-year headcount growth (+30 new employees), expanding product lineup into new ETF filings (Solana, XRP), and a growing global presence with offices and remote workers in Romania, Georgia, and Australia.

## Competitive Advantages
- **First-mover and regulatory moat**: Pioneered the first publicly-traded Bitcoin and Ethereum funds, operating within established SEC-reporting frameworks—a trust advantage in a rapidly evolving but uncertain regulatory environment.
- **Tenure and brand trust**: With over a decade of specialized crypto asset management, Grayscale is the largest digital asset-focused investment platform, trusted by advisors and allocators.
- **Institutional-grade operations**: Backed by custodians, auditors, and a leadership team with deep traditional finance experience, bridging the gap between crypto and regulated markets.

## Strategic Focus

- **Education and research leadership**: Investing in proprietary research and content to position Grayscale as the go-to educational authority for crypto investing.
- **Talent acquisition from traditional finance**: Actively hiring from top-tier banks and asset managers (Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, Deutsche Bank) to bring institutional rigor to crypto.
- **Global distribution growth**: Building out distribution teams (Vice President, National Accounts; Market Leader roles) to penetrate deeper into wealth management and advisory channels.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture and benefits**: 100% company-paid medical, vision, and dental premiums; 401k match $1 for $1 up to 5% (fully vested); state-of-the-art waterfront offices with casual dress code, outdoor terraces, barista/smoothie bar, free gourmet breakfast & lunch, and fully stocked beverage fridge and snack pantry.

- **Engineering culture**: Technical teams (9 employees, 6% of workforce) working on product and data science roles—this is a fintech/asset management hybrid, not a heavy engineering shop, but data scientists and client insights roles are actively hired.
- **Career growth**: High growth trajectory (25% YoY headcount expansion) and significant recent departures at the director/senior VP level suggest regular restructuring and upward mobility. The firm is in an "industry rapidly evolving and institutionalizing."
- **Notable perks**: Casual dress code, free gourmet meals, active social media and marketing team, and office in a waterfront location in Stamford.
