Job description
At Jamf, we empower people to be their best selves and do their best work. As a Software Engineer II on a new team enabling secure, governed adoption of autonomous and agentic workflows, youâll help build production systems where AI agents do real work on real code - authoring changes inside deterministic gates, with independent verification and a full audit trail. This is a greenfield build inside a mature platform, starting with Security.
What you can expect to do in this role:
- Build the production systems where AI agents do real work on real code - authoring changes that run inside deterministic gates, with independent verification and a full audit trail behind every one.
- Take customer and platform problems, break them into workable pieces with your agile team, and own most of them end to end.
- Draw the line on autonomy: design the trust boundaries, blast radius, and least-privilege model for the automation itself, which holds elevated access to production.
- Build the evaluation and observability that keeps non-deterministic systems honest - measuring accuracy and catching silent degradation before anyone else does.
- Make the systems answer the auditorâs âshow meâ - producing evidence that a control worked, not just the claim that it did.
- Work shoulder to shoulder with security engineering and PDD developers, and explain the tricky parts clearly to the rest of the organization.
- Bring engineering best practices to the table: ask the sharp questions, solve the hard problems, and help others level up.
Requirements
- 3+ years building enterprise-grade software commercially, with a solid grasp of testing and QA.
- 3+ years of commercial experience in Java or Python.
- Hands-on experience building with LLM APIs and agentic frameworks - tool calling, multi-step execution, structured output - well beyond using AI coding assistants.
- Hands-on experience with AI-driven coding assistants (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code) to speed up your own work.
- Sound judgment about where automation should and shouldnât act on its own - and the ability to articulate exactly where that line sits.
- You think in trust boundaries, blast radius, and least privilege by default.
- You treat vulnerability management as a discipline: severity and exploitability, SLAs, and exception handling.
- Experience in an agile organization and with build systems like Jenkins or Bamboo.
- You build trust and rapport across all levels, and do your best work collaboratively in a fast-paced environment.
Nice-to-have:
- Software supply chain security - SBOMs, provenance and attestation, image signing and verification, policy-as-code.
- Experience running AI coding agents at repository scale, and building the harness that makes their output trustworthy.
- Familiarity with AI governance in a security context - model-use policy, data handling, and the audit questions that follow an agent-initiated production change.
- Experience in a regulated environment (SOC 2, FedRAMP, or similar) and a feel for what auditors actually ask for.
Benefits & conditions
- We are progressive but laid back. You are free to be yourself and work how you work best. Here, you manage your own day and your own work style.
- You will have the opportunity to work with a small and empowered team where the culture is based on trust, ownership, and respect.
- We encourage you to simply be you. We constantly seek and value different perspectives to ensure Jamf is a place where everyone feels comfortable and can be successful.
- Benefits are a critical part of the âwhole employee experienceâ. Our benefits package includes 30 days of paid time off, 3 paid days to volunteer, Multisport Card, Luxmed packages and more.
