Sr. Staff Engineer, Security AI-SOC

Role overview Lead the design and implementation of AI-enabled capabilities that help security operations teams investigate and respond to detections. The work focuses on what happens after a detection is raised: coordinating investigation steps, combining evidence into explainable conclusions, and enabling safe, controlled responses across security systems.

Responsibilities - Architect post-detection workflows for triage, agent-led investigation, evidence synthesis, and containment. - Build production reasoning systems using large language models, embeddings, and contextual data to form hypotheses, gather evidence, and produce explainable results. - Connect detection signals to automated investigations and response workflows. - Prototype and evaluate multi-agent approaches and natural-language interfaces for security operations. - Define agent abstractions and communication patterns, review critical code, and set benchmarks for accuracy, latency, and reliability. - Design safeguards such as transparent reasoning trails, clear evidence custody, and human oversight; guide technical direction and mentor engineers.

Requirements - At least 12 years of experience building production software at scale, or equivalent depth of experience. - Demonstrated leadership in building AI-enabled security operations, SOAR, or post-detection automation capabilities. - Practical experience deploying AI systems using LLM orchestration, agents, embeddings or vector databases, tool calling, and retrieval-augmented generation. - Experience designing scalable, low-latency distributed systems for asynchronous events and multi-system workflows. - Strong understanding of security analyst workflows and frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK. - Experience designing APIs for integration with endpoint, identity, cloud, SIEM, or SOAR platforms, and ability to lead ambiguous work through production delivery.

Nice to have Experience with JavaScript or TypeScript, Node.js, Go, or Python; graph databases or contextual graph models; and open-source work in AI, automation, or security.
