Kikoff: The Fintech Powering Financial Security at Scale
Kikoff is a profitable, pre-IPO fintech company on a mission to empower everyone to achieve financial security. With record revenue growth in 2025 and a unicorn valuation, we've built a suite of products that help millions of people build credit, access liquidity, and save money.
We're scaling fast. Join us if you want to build something meaningful and help millions of people move forward financially.
This is a consumer fintech startup, and you will be working with serial entrepreneurs who have built strong consumer brands and innovative products. We value extreme ownership, clear communication, a strong sense of craftsmanship, and the desire to create lasting work and work relationships. Yes, you can build an exciting business AND have real-life real-customer impact.
Kikoff exists to help millions of people build credit. That only works if they trust us with their financial data. This role owns the Data Security pillar at Kikoff: how data is classified, accessed, encrypted, moved, and audited across our entire stack.
You will own and dictate the data security roadmap. You define the strategy, sequence the work, and drive it to done. Your work will be felt by every engineer at Kikoff and every customer we serve, and it will shape how we handle sensitive data as we scale.
In This Role, You Will
Own the Pillar
Own the data security roadmap end to end: classification, access controls, encryption, tokenization, and data flow security across AWS, Snowflake, and our internal pipelines.
Set the strategy for how humans, services, and AI agents access sensitive data. You decide what good looks like and build towards it.
Drive least-privilege access at scale, including brokered access patterns for our data warehouse and production databases rather than standing credentials.
Build & Secure
Define and enforce access controls for AI agents to guarantee least privilege permissions and proper audibility.
