Job description

We’re looking for an AI Security Engineer to help secure a modern platform that combines cloud infrastructure, large language models, and autonomous agents. You’ll play a key role in designing and operating security controls across Azure environments, AI/LLM systems, and regulated data workflows.

This is a hands-on role for someone who understands both traditional cloud security and emerging AI security risks, and can translate that into practical, scalable protections.

What You’ll Do

  • Implement security architecture across Azure (networking, identity, compute, storage)
  • Support developers in securing AI/LLM systems, including model access, prompt handling, data leakage prevention, and abuse mitigation
  • Maintain detection and response capabilities (SIEM, EDR, SOAR)
  • Lead threat modeling and risk assessments for new features, especially AI agents and APIs
  • Implement and enforce security controls for regulated environments
  • Manage identity and access controls (Azure AD / Entra ID, RBAC, least privilege)
  • Investigate and respond to security incidents
  • Partner with engineering to embed security into CI/CD pipelines and SDLC
  • Conduct security reviews of infrastructure-as-code, APIs, and application architecture
  • Drive compliance efforts (HIPAA, SOC 2, HITRUST, NIST and related frameworks)
  • Evaluate and integrate security tools across cloud, endpoint, and application layers
  • Work with technical teams on implementing patches and vulnerabilities management

Requirements

Do you have experience in Vulnerability management?, * Minimum of 4 years’ experience in security engineering and cloud security

  • Strong hands-on experience with Microsoft Azure security services (Defender for Cloud, Sentinel, etc.)
  • Experience securing AI/ML systems or strong familiarity with AI/LLM security risks (prompt injection, data exfiltration, model abuse)
  • Deep understanding of identity and access management (IAM), networking, and secure architecture
  • Experience with SIEM/SOAR tools, EDR technologies and Vulnerability management, * Experience working in HIPAA-regulated environments
  • Experience with infrastructure as code (Terraform, ARM, or similar)
  • Experience securing LLM-based products or agent frameworks
  • Familiarity with securing AI systems or adversarial testing
  • Knowledge of data security (DLP, encryption, tokenization)
  • Experience with container and Kubernetes security
  • Certifications such as CISSP, CCSP, Azure Security Engineer Associate, or similar
  • Experience in high-growth startups or fast-paced environments, * Practical, builder mindset - you can design and implement, not just advise
  • Ability to balance security with product velocity
  • Strong communication skills and ability to work cross-functionally
  • Curiosity about emerging AI threats and willingness to stay ahead of them
