About the Information Security Team We believe security isn't just a function—it's a platform for bold ideas. The Information Security Team at Mixpanel is a small, high-impact group committed to building a frictionless security program that serves as a model for our company and the broader industry. This is a team for those who are never satisfied, who dream big, and who have the resilience to see those ideas through
We operate at the intersection of business strategy and technical execution, where we are critical partners to every team at Mixpanel.
