Turing’s mission is to accelerate superintelligence to drive real economic progress. Headquartered in San Francisco, Turing works with frontier AI labs to generate high-quality datasets, reinforcement learning environments, and frontier research benchmarks that improve model capabilities in software engineering, enterprise knowledge work, and advanced STEM reasoning. In software engineering, Turing is the largest and longest-running data provider in the category. Turing also works with Fortune 500 enterprises across financial services, life sciences, healthcare, retail, automotive, and CPG to build and deploy end-to-end agentic AI systems inside mission-critical workflows. By operating on both sides, Turing closes the loop between frontier research and enterprise deployment, turning real-world deployment signals into better data, evaluations, and more capable models.

About the Role
We're hiring a Director of Security Investigations to build and lead the function that investigates fraud, insider threats, and misconduct across the company. This is a senior leadership role for someone who can stand up a rigorous, fair, and discreet investigations program — one that protects the company and our customers while treating everyone involved with integrity and due process.
You'll lead a team of investigators and analysts, own the insider threat and fraud programs, and partner closely with Legal, HR, Security Engineering, and executive leadership. You'll balance sharp investigative instincts with sound judgment, strong process, and careful handling of sensitive information.
What You'll Do
- Build, lead, and grow the security investigations team and set the strategy for the function.
- Own the insider threat program: detection, triage, investigation, and response to risks posed by employees, contractors, and trusted insiders.
- Lead complex fraud investigations, from detection through resolution, and partner with relevant teams to close the gaps that enabled them.
- Establish investigation standards, playbooks, evidence handling, and case management practices that hold up to legal and regulatory scrutiny.
- Partner with Legal, HR, and Compliance on sensitive matters, ensuring investigations are fair, well-documented, and privileged where appropriate.
- Work with Detection & Response and Security Engineering to build the telemetry and tooling needed to surface insider and fraud signals.
- Manage escalations and brief executive leadership on significant cases and program health.
- Track trends across investigations and drive systemic prevention, not just case-by-case resolution.
Requirements
- Experience: Extensive experience in investigations — insider threat, fraud, corporate/security investigations, or law enforcement — including experience leading teams (typically 10+ years total, with management experience).
- Track Record: Proven history running complex, sensitive investigations end to end with sound judgment and discretion.
- Domain Knowledge: Strong understanding of insider threat and fraud detection, including the data sources, signals, and tooling involved.
- Cross-Functional Partnership: Experience partnering with Legal and HR on sensitive matters, and familiarity with evidence handling, chain of custody, and documentation standards.
- Judgment: Excellent judgment, discretion, and ethics — able to navigate ambiguous, high-stakes situations fairly.
- Communication: Strong communication and executive presence.
Nice to Have
- Relevant certifications (CFE, PCI, or similar) or a legal/forensics background.
- Experience building an insider threat program from the ground up.
- Familiarity with UEBA, DLP, and security data pipelines used to detect insider and fraud activity.
- Experience in a regulated or high-trust industry.
Success Looks Like
Within the first year: a functioning investigations program with clear standards and tooling, strong working relationships with Legal and HR, an insider threat capability that surfaces real risk, and executive trust in how sensitive matters are handled.
Salary: 240k
