Senior Staff Engineer – AI Security Architecture

Role Overview

• Design, build, and maintain agentic AI systems — including React loops, tool orchestration, and RAG pipelines — in production-grade Python.
• Author and refine complex, domain-rich prompts that encode security architecture knowledge into reliable, repeatable LLM-powered workflows.
• Conduct AI-assisted architecture and secure design reviews across enterprise systems, identifying weaknesses early and guiding teams toward paved-road solutions.
• Partner with engineering teams as a hands-on security architecture advisor — reviewing designs, accelerating production readiness, and raising the bar on secure-by-default thinking.
• Build and maintain integrations with enterprise platforms including Azure AD, Azure DevOps, Slack, and internal APIs, with a strong command of the auth and governance landscape that comes with them.
• Write infrastructure-as-code and automation tooling using Terraform and/or Ansible to operationalize security controls at scale.
• Apply your knowledge of CI/CD pipelines, containerization, and orchestration both as surfaces to secure and as tools to build with.

Requirements

• Strong security architecture background — you can identify automation opportunities before they're on anyone's roadmap, design novel solutions, and guide teams toward secure, scalable patterns.
• Hands-on experience building fully agentic AI systems; chatbot wrappers don't count.
• Demonstrated ability to write long, complex, domain-rich prompts for production LLM workflows.
• Production-grade Python skills and the discipline to keep a codebase clean as it scales.
• Deep understanding of AI/ML concepts and how they intersect with security risk and assisted coding workflows.
• Experience with Terraform and/or Ansible for infrastructure automation.
• Broad hands-on experience with CI/CD, networking, containerization, and orchestration (e.g., Kubernetes, Docker) — both as things you secure and as tools you build with.
• Fluency writing API-driven automations and integrating with enterprise platforms.
• Experience 8+ years in software engineering, security engineering, or a hybrid architecture role.
• 3+ years of hands-on experience with at least one major cloud provider (Azure preferred).
• Demonstrated experience shipping production AI/ML systems or security automation tooling.
• Experience with identity and access patterns, OAuth/OIDC, and enterprise auth integrations.
