Job Title:Senior AI Security Engineer

Location: Onsite Jersey City, NJ - Tampa, FL - or Phoenix AZ

What's the Job?

  • Design and maintain agentic workflows that support multi-step reasoning and tool-use for autonomous cybersecurity use cases such as incident investigation and vulnerability prioritization.
  • Build advanced, high-precision prompt systems with version control, and programmatically optimize LLM outputs to enforce reliable security logic and automated remediation scripts.
  • Use and fine-tune machine learning models (e.g., Deep Learning, K-Means, SVM) to detect sophisticated attack patterns that can evade traditional signature-based defenses.
  • Integrate large language models (OpenAI, Anthropic, or open-source models) into production environments via APIs or local deployments.
  • Orchestrate data ingestion pipelines with a focus on vector databases, and re-engineer manual workflows using a machine-first approach for unstructured data.

What's Needed?

  • Hands-on experience with Python, including data ingestion and cleaning, and familiarity with machine learning libraries such as Scikit-Learn and PyTorch, plus system and web-based integrations.
  • Proficiency with AI agent frameworks such as LangChain, CrewAI, or AutoGPT for agent orchestration.
  • Hands-on experience using and tuning machine learning models for a range of cybersecurity use cases.
  • 3-4 years of hands-on experience with at least one cloud AI solution (AWS Bedrock/SageMaker or Azure AI).
  • Strong DevOps and integration skills including Docker, Kubernetes, Git, and deep experience with RESTful and GraphQL APIs to connect disparate systems.

What's in it for me?

  • Work on autonomous security engineering that meaningfully reduces manual overhead and improves decision-making.
  • Build production-grade AI security systems with guardrails, safety controls, and human-in-the-loop checkpoints where needed.
  • Collaborate on end-to-end AI security delivery, from agent design and prompt engineering to data pipelines and MLOps.
  • Apply your expertise across LLM integration, vector databases, and cloud-native deployment and monitoring.
