Requirements
  • Strong hands-on experience with AWS and Kubernetes/EKS, comfortable navigating cloud infrastructure and container environments from day one
  • Solid foundation in security fundamentals: vulnerability management, IAM, network security, and cloud security posture management
  • Experience triaging and remediating security findings from vulnerability scanners or cloud security tools
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and integrating security practices into the software development lifecycle
  • Strong communication skills, able to work effectively with both DevOps and Security stakeholders and translate technical risk into clear priorities
  • Experience with Infrastructure-as-Code (e.g., Terraform/OpenTofu), compliance frameworks, or container security tooling
Responsibilities
  • Security Ownership: Drive software engineering security hygiene end-to-end, from identifying vulnerabilities and misconfigurations to implementing durable fixes across our platform. This includes AWS, Kubernetes, CDN/WAF, and other technologies used in the PDLC
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work hand-in-hand with DevOps and Engineering teams to embed security best practices into everyday workflows, without slowing down velocity
  • Continuous Learning: Stay current on evolving cloud security threats, tooling, and best practices, ensuring Raya's infrastructure stays ahead of emerging risks
  • Findings Remediation: Triage, prioritize, and systematically close out security findings, translating scanner output into practical, actionable engineering fixes
  • Operational Excellence: Expand and maintain security checks and guardrails in CI/CD pipelines and the broader PDLC, so security becomes a natural part of how we ship, not an afterthought
Desired Qualifications
  • Bridge Builder: You naturally sit at the intersection of DevOps and Security, translating between the two and earning trust from both sides
  • Impact-driven: You prioritize the fixes and improvements that meaningfully reduce risk, rather than chasing every alert
  • Growth-oriented: You possess a perpetual learner's mindset, staying curious about new threats, tools, and cloud-native security practices
  • Ownership mentality: You take findings from discovery to resolution without needing to be chased, and you build systems so problems don't recur
  • Productivity-obsessed: You value tools, workflows, and automation that make security scalable rather than manual
  • Bias toward shipping and iteration: You're able to harden systems incrementally, learn, and refine in short cycles rather than waiting for a "perfect" fix

Raya is a private, membership-based app for people in creative industries to date, network, and make friends. It runs on iOS with a subscription model (standard and premium) and may host member events, with revenue from monthly fees. Applications are vetted by an anonymous global committee and require a current member referral, with very selective acceptance; profiles are linked to Instagram and shown as a photo montage set to a chosen song. The app offers a nearby-members map and a searchable directory for professional connections while enforcing privacy, such as banning screenshots, to create a discreet, high-profile community.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • The Wall Street Journal reported 2.5 million waitlisted applicants in August 2025.
  • Membership still charges $24.99 monthly, with Raya+ at $49.99 in 2026.
  • Celebrity visibility keeps word-of-mouth marketing free and culturally relevant through 2026.

What critics are saying

  • The App Store now shows many paid add-ons, diluting premium scarcity by 2026.
  • 2.5 million waitlisted applicants create frustration while Hinge and Tinder dominate discovery.
  • Existentially, creator-network fatigue destroys Raya's brand if celebrities leave by 2027.

What makes Raya unique

  • Raya's invite-only committee and 8% acceptance rate preserve elite scarcity.
  • The app combines dating, networking, and friendship inside one curated community.
  • iPhone-only access and Instagram-linked profiles reinforce privacy and status signaling.
