About Us:

Obsidian Security was founded in 2017 to solve the unaddressed blindspot of SaaS Security.

We’re a passionate team optimizing for impact by solving some of the biggest challenges in cybersecurity today.

Working at Obsidian means contributing to an industry-leading cybersecurity product in an environment where customer satisfaction, privacy, and data ethics are paramount.
