Qualifications We Seek in You

Minimum Qualifications

• Proven experience in Information Security, including leading high-performing engineering teams.

• Deep expertise in LLM Security and handson experience with agentic AI frameworks such as LangChain, AutoGPT, Microsoft AutoGen, or CrewAI.

• Strong background in Cloud-Native Security (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and Zero Trust Architecture.

Preferred Qualifications

• Proficiency in Python and Go, with practical experience securing execution environments (e.g., sandboxing, containerization).

• A builder's mindset-you enjoy writing code, designing systems, and creating practical security solutions rather than focusing solely on policy.
