Who You Are

The Agentic AI Software Engineer – Cybersecurity Systems designs, develops, and deploys advanced AI-driven software solutions to enhance cybersecurity detection, response, analysis, and automation capabilities. This role focuses on building and maintaining agent-based artificial intelligence systems capable of autonomously generating code, conducting security analyses, triaging alerts, identifying vulnerabilities, and recommending remediation strategies, with structured human oversight and validation.

The position requires the application of advanced knowledge in computer science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, secure software engineering, distributed systems, and cybersecurity principles. The role involves complex system design, secure AI integration, and the development of enterprise-grade security automation platforms.

What You Will Do

1. Design and Develop Agentic AI Systems for Cybersecurity

  • Architect and implement AI-powered systems that perform autonomous or semi-autonomous cybersecurity tasks, including vulnerability analysis, threat detection, alert triage, log analysis, and secure code review.
  • Design multi-agent architectures capable of orchestrating specialized AI agents (e.g., vulnerability scanning agents, log analysis agents, exploit pattern detection agents).
  • Develop retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines to enable AI systems to securely query internal knowledge bases, threat intelligence feeds, CVE databases, and security documentation.

2. AI-Assisted Secure Code Generation & Review

  • Utilize large language models (LLMs) to generate secure software components, scripts, detection logic, and test cases.
  • Review and refine AI-generated code to ensure compliance with secure coding standards (e.g., OWASP Top 10, secure SDLC practices).
  • Implement automated guardrails to detect insecure outputs, prompt injection vulnerabilities, model hallucinations, and data leakage risks.
  • Design validation frameworks to benchmark AI-generated security outputs against known vulnerability patterns.

3. Human-in-the-Loop AI Governance & Model Optimization

  • Design and implement reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) workflows for cybersecurity use cases.
  • Develop evaluation metrics for AI accuracy in threat detection, vulnerability identification, and remediation recommendations.
  • Continuously refine prompt engineering strategies, model tuning parameters, and system architecture to improve security reliability and precision.
  • Implement explainability mechanisms to support auditability and defensibility of AI-driven security decisions.

4. Secure System Architecture & Integration

  • Develop and maintain APIs and microservices to integrate AI-powered security tools into enterprise platforms.
  • Architect scalable and fault-tolerant distributed systems to support real-time security event processing.
  • Deploy AI-enabled services within secure cloud environments (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) using containerization and orchestration technologies (Docker, Kubernetes).
  • Integrate AI systems with SIEM, SOAR, vulnerability management, and endpoint detection platforms.

5. Security Engineering & Threat Modeling

  • Conduct threat modeling for AI systems to identify adversarial risks, model exploitation vectors, and prompt injection vulnerabilities.
  • Implement secure authentication, authorization, encryption, and data governance controls.
  • Develop safeguards to prevent misuse of AI systems in exploit development or unintended security bypass scenarios.
  • Perform security reviews and penetration testing of AI-driven software components.

6. Testing, Validation & Performance Optimization

  • Design automated test pipelines for AI-driven security workflows.
  • Conduct adversarial testing to evaluate resilience against malicious inputs.
  • Monitor system performance metrics (latency, false positive rates, detection accuracy).
  • Optimize inference pipelines and distributed systems for reliability and scalability.

7. Documentation & Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Produce detailed architectural documentation for AI security systems.
  • Collaborate with cybersecurity researchers, product teams, software engineers, and cloud architects to translate threat intelligence and security requirements into scalable AI-enabled solutions.
  • Provide technical guidance on AI governance, responsible AI deployment, and secure AI lifecycle management.

Your Experience

  • Required Education
    • Bachelor’s degree or higher in
