You will implement, configure, and harden Anthropic's Claude across enterprise environments; build and secure agentic workflows, tool integrations, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers; and write the code, automation, and integrations that turn AI security designs into working, production-ready capabilities. You will also engineer AI-enabled cybersecurity operations solutions on Claude, such as agentic vulnerability management, automated triage, and AI-assisted security testing. Working closely with AI Security Architects and client engineering teams, you will move quickly from proof of concept to production while contributing reusable code, accelerators, and technical expertise to Slalom's AI security offerings., * Claude Implementation & Hardening: Deploy and securely configure Claude Enterprise, Claude Code, the Claude API, and cloud-hosted Claude (Amazon Bedrock, Google Cloud Vertex AI, Microsoft Azure), including SSO/SCIM, role-based access, workspace and admin controls, data retention, and audit logging. * MCP & Tool Integration Engineering: Build, deploy, and secure MCP servers and tool integrations, implementing authentication, authorization, least-privilege permissioning, input/output validation, and secrets management. * Agent Security Controls: Implement technical controls for Claude-based agents, including sandboxed execution, scoped credentials and agent identity, human-in-the-loop approvals, rate limiting, and policy enforcement. * Agentic Security Solutions: Develop Claude-powered security automations using the Claude Agent SDK and MCP, such as agentic vulnerability management (discovery, prioritization, remediation guidance, and fix validation), alert triage, investigation, and threat intelligence enrichment. * Security Tooling Integration: Integrate Claude-based solutions with vulnerability scanners, EDR, SIEM/SOAR, ticketing, source control, and CI/CD pipelines through APIs, webhooks, and infrastructure as code. * AI Security Testing: Perform hands-on security testing of Claude-enabled applications and agents, including prompt injection, jailbreak, data leakage, and tool-abuse testing; build automated test harnesses and evaluations to validate guardrails. * Logging, Monitoring & Detection: Instrument AI usage and agent activity with logging and telemetry, build detections and dashboards in SIEM platforms, and provide visibility into agent actions, tool calls, and connections. * Secure Code & DevSecOps: Embed security into AI solution delivery through secure coding practices, code review (including Claude-assisted secure code review), dependency and supply chain scanning, and secured CI/CD pipelines. * Cloud Security Foundations: Configure the underlying cloud infrastructure that hosts Claude solutions, including IAM, network controls, private connectivity, encryption, key management, and logging. * Technical Delivery: Own hands-on build and implementation workstreams, troubleshoot issues, and translate reference architectures into working, documented, and supportable solutions. * Pursuit Support: Build demos and proofs of concept, support technical scoping and estimates, and serve as a hands-on Anthropic and AI security expert in client workshops. * Practice Development: Create reusable code, MCP connectors, deployment templates, and runbooks for Slalom's AI security offerings; stay current on new Claude capabilities and collaborate with Anthropic partner teams. * Mentorship: Coach and upskill consultants on Claude engineering, secure agent development, and AI security testing.
