The group is exploring how frontier language models can be incorporated into cybersecurity testing and is building technology that uses AI to uncover weaknesses across software, infrastructure, and network environments. The position sits at the intersection of AI engineering, cybersecurity, and software development. You will be responsible for designing the instructions and supporting logic that allow large language models to conduct meaningful security analysis. Success in this role requires more than prompt-writing ability; you must understand the security problems being investigated well enough to direct an AI model toward useful findings and distinguish meaningful vulnerabilities from noise., Daily Responsibilities * Design prompt architectures that direct AI models through cybersecurity research and testing tasks * Build AI harnesses capable of maintaining relevant context throughout complex security investigations * Develop test cases that identify software vulnerabilities and infrastructure exposures * Use generative AI to support network-perimeter analysis and discovery of open or risky services * Create workflows for identifying suspicious certificate usage and other security-control weaknesses * Experiment with different frontier models without being tied to a single provider * Assess the usefulness and accuracy of model-generated security findings * Partner with engineers responsible for capturing and processing the resulting security data * Coordinate with cyber threat hunters who investigate and remediate validated findings ## Related Videos - [Enhancing Workload Security in Kubernetes](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/356-enhancing-workload-security-in-kubernetes) - [Kubernetes and Microservices with Multi-Model Databases](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/382-kubernetes-and-microservices-with-multi-model-databases) - [AIQSpecFlow: Improves and automates your agile process of specification and creation of testcases.](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100084-aiqspecflow-improves-and-automates-your-agile-process-of-specification-and-creation-of-testcases) - [AI Prompting for TA and HR: From Beginner to Advanced](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1474-ai-prompting-for-ta-and-hr-from-beginner-to-advanced) - [The AI Security Survival Guide: Practical Advice for Stressed-Out Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1015-the-ai-security-survival-guide-practical-advice-for-stressed-out-developers) - [Full Spectrum File Uploads](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/870-full-spectrum-file-uploads) ## Related Articles - [The Prompt Engineer ✍️](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/216-the-prompt-engineer) - [Prompt Engineering is a Job of the Past](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/342-prompt-engineering-is-a-job-of-the-past) - [MLOps And AI Driven Development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/82-mlops-and-ai-driven-development) - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [Got AI ideas but no money?
