We are seeking an AI Integrity Engineer to strengthen security across our evolving AI, Cloud, and Data ecosystems. This role partners with Enterprise Engineering to architect and secure modern application and infrastructure ecosystems. By bridging the gap between Platform Engineering and AI Security, you will lead the development of secure AI pipelines, agentic workflows, and robust data warehouse protections. You&rsquo;ll work cross-functionally to build scalable, resilient foundations that embed AI-specific guardrails directly into the enterprise fabric.</div><div></div><div>
This is a hands-on contributor role supporting teams building AI services by establishing secure identity, access, guardrails, and lifecycle controls for autonomous and semi-autonomous AI agents.</div><div></div><div>
This role may be hired into at a Level III or IV, depending upon experience. This is a telecommuter position, working from home.</div><div></div><div>
What you&rsquo;ll do:</div><div></div><div>
Application Security:</div><ul><li><div>
SAST &amp; DAST Implementation: Design and manage Static and Dynamic Application Security Testing pipelines to detect security flaws early in the lifecycle.</div></li><li><div>
Vulnerability Remediation: Lead regular vulnerability scans of codebases and containers. Analyze results, prioritize critical issues, and partner with engineering teams to drive remediation.</div></li><li><div>
Secure Supply Chain: Manage artifact security and dependency scanning using Artifact and Dependency Scanning tools.</div></li></ul><div></div><div>
AI Security &amp; Governance:</div><ul><li><div>
Protect AI Assets: Secure data pipelines, models, and agents from threats such as prompt injection, model hijacking, data-poisoning, and trojaned instructions.</div></li><li><div>
Secure RAG Pipelines: Enforce retrieval integrity, document ingestion safety, and data-access controls to prevent indirect prompt injection and data leakage.</div></li><li><div>
Secure Interaction: Enable secure agent-tool interaction using frameworks such as MCP by implementing strong authentication, authorization, and scoped tool-permission boundaries.</div></li><li><div>
Guardrails &amp; Safety: Deploy and maintain AI guardrails, including safety filters, task adherence controls, scoped action permissions, and prompt-shielding mechanisms.</div></li><li><div>
Threat Modeling: Perform AI-specific threat modeling focused on jailbreaks, adversarial inputs, indirect prompt attacks, and non-deterministic system behavior.</div></li><li><div>
Compliance: Support cross-team compliance efforts by ensuring audit trails, usage governance, and adherence to emerging AI control frameworks.</div></li></ul><div></div><div>
AI Identity, Access &amp; Authentication:</div><ul><li><div>
Implement identity governance frameworks tailored for AI agents, such as ephemeral authentication, attribute-based access control (ABAC), and just-in-time provisioning.</div></li><li><div>
Manage M2M/OIDC/OAuth identity configurations for per-application agent authentication, including scopes, claims, client credentials, and automated key/secret rotation.</div></li><li><div>
Configure Azure Entra Agent IDs (or similar) to issue trackable, short-lived identities for unique agents.</div></li><li><div>
Implement governance around credential lifecycle, preventing agent credential sprawl.</div></li></ul><div></div><div>
Secure Agent Tooling &amp; Workflow Controls:</div><ul><li><div>
Administer and maintain the MCP Registry or equivalent systems to govern secure access to tools and APIs for agent workflows.</div></li><li><div>
Monitor and govern agent tool selection, ensuring safe invocation boundaries and preventing privilege escalation within automated workflows.</div></li><li><div>
Support controlled integration of agents with internal services without owning traditional infrastructure security functions (e.g., firewall administration, IDS/IPS tuning).</div></li></ul><div></div><div>
Data Protection &amp; Observability:</div><ul><li><div>
Implement PII detection, redaction workflows, and DLP controls natively within agentic systems.</div></li><li><div>
Maintain auditability for agent actions, identity transitions, tool use, and retrieval events.</div></li><li><div>
Monitor AI-related logs, security signals, and performance anomalies; support anomaly detection without requiring deep SIEM engineering or incident-response forensics.</div></li></ul><div></div><div>
Platform &amp; Infrastructure (AI-Focused Support Only):</div><ul><li><div>
Support secure configuration of AI Gateways for model routing, rate-limiting, tenant isolation, and guardrail policy execution.</div></li><li><div>
Support IaC-based configuration reviews for AI workloads without owning broad enterprise infrastructure hardening.</div></li></ul><div></div><div>

Familiarity with AI agent frameworks, guardrails, RAG patterns, and AI-specific risks.</div></li><li><div>
MCP or similar tool-registry configuration experience.</div></li><li><div>
Understanding of AI orchestration, agentic system architectures, and secure agent workflow design.</div></li><li><div>
Experience implementing AI-specific DLP, prompt-shielding, and PII-detection controls.</div></li><li><div>
Identity security, DevSecOps, or platform-security support.</div></li><li><div>
