Senior Security Engineer - Cloud Defense & Incident Response

About the Role :

Grade Level (for internal use) :

11

We are looking for a Senior Security Engineer with 8-10 years of hands-on experience to be a force multiplier in our Cloud Security and Incident Response program. This is a deeply technical, individual-contributor role reporting to the Associate Director of Security Engineering in a high-velocity, AI-first company.

You will own detection, response, and hardening for our multi-cloud environment (AWS, GCP, Azure) while driving real-time defense against sophisticated threats targeting our infrastructure and AI workloads.

This is a "boots-on-the-ground" role : you'll hunt threats, lead incidents, write detection logic, harden cloud configurations with code, and eliminate entire classes of risk before attackers can exploit them.

The Impact

• Be the tip-of-the-spear defender for petabyte-scale AI infrastructure.
• Directly stop nation-state and financially motivated attackers.
• Equity in a high-growth AI company.
• Remote-first, global team with deep trust and autonomy.
• Work side-by-side with world-class platform engineers and AI researchers.
