Culture and benefits at VXM Secure

Culture at VXM Secure We are a remote-first founding team with one shared obsession: getting GuardSuite to market. We trust every person on this team to own their domain completely — no hand-holding, no micromanagement. We meet twice a week. Everything else is async. You'll know what needs to get done, you'll know why it matters, and you'll have the autonomy to go build it. We move fast because the market is moving, and because every day we build is a day closer to the launch that changes everything for this team. What We Value: Ownership over permission. If you see something that needs fixing, fix it. We hired you because you're the expert in your domain. Directness over diplomacy. We say what we mean. Feedback is fast and honest because we respect each other's time too much to sugarcoat. Mission over ego. We're building something that protects infrastructure most people never think about. That context keeps petty disagreements exactly where they belong — nowhere. Excellence as the baseline. Federal-grade security customers don't forgive mediocre work, and neither do we. The Honest Part: This is a pre-seed company. What we have is meaningful founding equity, a technical problem that hasn't been solved, a founder with 30 years of federal credibility, and a clear path to seed funding. The people who thrive here have done the math: early equity in the right company, at the right time, with the right customer base, compounds differently than a salary bump somewhere else. What You Get: — Founding equity: 0.5–2% (4-year vest, 1-year cliff) — Fully remote, work from anywhere in the US — Flexible hours, own your schedule — 2 team syncs per week, everything else async — Full salary activates at seed close (target Q2 2026) — Direct access to the founder, no layers, no politics
