What you will do

• Own agent-adjacent application work, including evaluation harnesses, agent scaffolds, and internal UIs for security partners.
• Design and evolve shared schemas and data contracts for agents and human users.
• Turn ambiguous partner requests into proposals, designs, reviewed implementations, rollouts, evaluations, tracing, runbooks, and operationally ready systems.
• Build and maintain integrations across SOAR, SIEM, vulnerability scanners, ticketing systems, and enterprise platforms.
• Improve AI-augmented engineering through reusable scaffolds, shared skills, code-review discipline, and evaluations that detect drift.
• Prototype, test, ship, measure, and improve solutions while collaborating across security, engineering, governance, risk, and operational teams.

Requirements

• Strong Python skills with hands-on experience shipping production software, including APIs, services, batch jobs, or application backends, plus code review, testing, and operational follow-through.
• Hands-on experience building or evaluating LLM or agent systems, including harnesses, evaluations, tracing, or agentic pipelines; alternatively, strong software-engineering fundamentals with demonstrated AI-augmented development using tools such as Copilot or coding agents and a clear view of where they help.
• Experience designing or evolving schemas and data contracts, as well as application UIs using real data rather than mock-only prototypes.
• Working knowledge of cybersecurity practices covering identity and access, secrets handling, secure-by-default configuration, and common security data such as vulnerabilities, incidents, identity, and threat intelligence.
• Ability to own shipped software through runbooks, basic observability, and evaluations that continue running after merge.
• Ability to operate in ambiguous problem spaces, define solutions, communicate clearly, ask effective questions, and collaborate across teams.

Nice to have

• Experience with LangChain, LangGraph, LangSmith, or similar tools; LLM-as-judge or offline evaluation; and tracing or observability for agent runs.
• Frontend experience with React or similar technologies for internal security tools, including watchlists, dashboards, or workflow UIs.
• Hands-on experience with security tools or data used for triage and investigation, including SIEM, vulnerability scanners, identity systems, orchestration platforms such as Tines, or detection-engineering workflows.
• Experience reasoning about shared schemas or data contracts spanning team boundaries, with what, who, and state treated as first-class artifacts.
• Working AWS fluency sufficient to ship and operate systems; Terraform or Docker experience is useful but not a daily requirement.

Culture & Benefits

• Work in a small, high-impact Security Automation & Integration Engineering team focused on curiosity, pragmatism, collaboration, and working solutions.
• Partner with security leadership, operational teams, engineering teams, and governance and risk teams.
• Flexible hybrid work combines office and field time with flexibility rather than a fixed number of required office days each week.
• Potential eligibility for the hirify.global Bonus Plan or role-specific bonus and annual refresh stock grants.
• hirify.global provides comprehensive benefits, reasonable accommodations, and employment consideration under applicable Fair Chance laws.
