Team

We are building an elite team, applying frontier technologies to the world’s biggest financial problems. We’re looking for bold thinkers. Sharp problem-solvers. Builders who are wired to make an impact. Robinhood isn’t a place for complacency, it’s where ambitious people do the best work of their careers. We’re a high-performing, fast-moving team with ethics at the center of everything we do. Expectations are high, and so are the rewards.

At Robinhood, security is foundational to trust. The Insider Trust team sits at the center of that mission: protecting Robinhood and our customers from risks that originate from within. We operate at the intersection of security, people, and risk, working closely with Legal, People Relations, Physical Security, Detection & Response, and business leaders to address complex and sensitive situations.

This is a hands-on investigative and analytical role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, can connect disparate signals, and is motivated to uncover the truth behind risky behavior. You will support and execute investigations today, while building toward owning more complex cases over time.We operate with a bias for action: moving quickly to assess and mitigate risk while enabling the business to continue operating effectively. Our goal is not to slow teams down, but to help them move fast, safely.

This role includes occasional travel to support high-priority investigations and on-site security assessments.

This role is based in our Menlo Park, CA office, with in-person attendance expected at least 3 days per week.

At Robinhood, we believe in the power of in-person work to accelerate progress, spark innovation, and strengthen community. Our office experience is intentional, energizing, and designed to fully support high-performing teams.
