Security Engineer, AI Platform Engineering

Enable Departments and Build

• Build AI-powered applications, agents, and automations for teams across the company on our cloud platforms, with real backends, infrastructure, and integrations to real data and systems, for properly hardened, compliant, well-hosted, secure-by-default solutions, so departments don’t ship insecure ad-hoc vibe-coded tools themselves.
• Educate & Set Standards: Teach teams to use AI safely and effectively for their own work, and set company-wide standards for good, safe AI usage.
• Govern: Own AI governance, visibility, and inventory; monitoring and logging of AI usage; and prompt- and output-level data-loss-prevention to protect sensitive data, including customer data.
• Guardrails: Put guardrails in place for AI usage, treat AI agents as identities with least privilege, govern model and agent access, and make the sanctioned path the best path so “shadow AI” doesn’t take hold.
• Craft Reliable AI: Build agents and workflows that actually work, design tool use and MCP integrations, manage context and memory, and validate quality with evaluative loops.

How You Work

• You are genuinely energized by teaching and unblocking people, not someone who wants to be the smartest person in the room.
• You are kind and patient by default. You meet people where they are, answer the “basic” question as generously as the hard one, and never make someone feel small for not knowing something.
• You stay with people through the problem instead of handing off a fix and making it someone else’s problem.
• You are low-ego and intellectually humble. You explain technical ideas to non-technical colleagues without condescension, you say “I don’t know, let’s find out,” and you own your mistakes.
• You are strong opinions, loosely held. A natural teacher and enabler. You get more satisfaction from making ten colleagues more capable than from being the lone hero, and you turn one-off help into reusable guidance and patterns.
• You are deeply empathetic and a good listener. You start from the person’s actual problem, not your preferred solution, and you are the voice of the user back to the security and platform teams.
• You are values-aligned and high-agency. You collaborate across engineering, security, legal, and business teams with integrity, and you navigate ambiguity while keeping everyone with you.

Required Qualifications

• You are a genuine AI power user who builds: you’ve shipped agents, tools, or automations with LLMs, and you can walk through the hard parts.
• You build real backends and infrastructure, not just demos: APIs, data pipelines, authentication and secrets, hosting and deployment (containers, Infrastructure-as-Code, CI/CD), and systems integration, made reliable with observability, evals, and graceful failure handling.
• You have working knowledge of the strengths and weaknesses of different AI models and platforms, and how to match the right model to a task.
• You have a deep understanding of data handling and safe AI usage.
• You have fluency with modern agent concepts: agentic loops, agent harnesses, context engineering, tool use / function calling, MCP, and evals.
• You have a strong software and security foundation to build and secure production systems, with sound judgment on data handling and safe AI usage.
• You have immense kindness and patience for supporting and teaching non-technical users.
• You can obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance.

Preferred Qualifications

• You have experience with AI governance, DLP, monitoring/logging, or guardrails for AI usage.
• You have experience building and hosting AI solutions in the cloud.
• You have a security background (application, cloud, or data protection).
• You have experience teaching, enabling, or supporting non-technical teams.
