Description

We are looking for a passionate Lead or Senior Offensive Security Engineer for our growing Offensive Security Automation team. This hands-on offensive security position requires a cyber security professional whose primary focus is to perform security assessments and vulnerability research using internal AI tools using frontier models, with a focus of designing and developing the AI automation and autonomous harnesses together with the team.

Responsibilities:

  • Perform security assessments and vulnerability research across web applications, APIs, and cloud/hybrid infrastructure, using internal AI tools and frontier models to scale coverage and depth.
  • Make sure our internal solution can perform exploitation, vulnerability chaining, business logic and authorization abuse, privilege escalation, and lateral movement, beyond what automated tooling alone can find.
  • Run end-to-end engagements: scoping, execution, reporting, and remediation guidance.
  • Discover systemic/architectural weaknesses, not just isolated bugs, and drive secure-by-default fixes.
  • Partner with engineering, security architecture, and detection & response teams to close root causes and validate control effectiveness.
  • Produce high-quality technical reports with clear exploitation paths and prioritized remediation.
  • Develop the automation and autonomous harnesses that direct frontier models to perform offensive security testing continuously and at scale.
  • Design agent-based workflows that reason over large data, plan for risk signals, business logic and execute multi-step offensive testing that will adapt based on results, recon, hypothesis ranking, chaining of bugs exploitation, AI-Driven assessments, and reporting.
  • Establish human-in-the-loop checkpoints so automation scales offensive coverage without sacrificing safety or precision.
  • Translate your own tradecraft into reusable, explainable automation that the team can run and build on.

Requirements:

  • 6+ years (Senior) / 8+ years (Lead) hands-on offensive security experience such as pentesting, red teaming, or app/security research, with proven complex engagement delivery.
  • Deep, must-have vulnerability knowledge in cloud and web application security: OWASP Top 10+ vulnerability classes, identity/authz attack vectors, and cloud/hybrid attack surfaces.
  • Hands-on experience using internal AI tools and frontier models to perform or accelerate security testing, not just conceptual familiarity!
  • Software engineering fundamentals: System design, API integration, working with distributed services and technologies.
  • Ability to write custom scripts/tooling/payloads and contribute to building automation and autonomous harnesses including prompt engineering.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Nice to Have:

  • Experience with agentic frameworks, prompt optimization, agent evaluation, or lightweight model fine-tuning.
  • Published security research, CVEs, or conference talks.
  • Familiarity with MITRE ATT&CK/ATLAS and offensive AI/ML attack surfaces (prompt injection, agentic privilege abuse).

Benefits:

  • Unleash Your Potential: Our benefits and resources support you to find balance and be your best, and our AI agents accelerate your impact so you can do your best.
