The challenges brought on by COVID-19 have intensified the importance of our mission. We serve a diverse clientele, which includes Fortune 500 corporations, nine out of ten of the largest global banks, and the Department of Defense.
As we transition from 400 employees to the next stage of our growth, we are on the lookout for passionate individuals who embody empathy and flexibility. The ideal candidate is ethical, highly organized, and committed to seeing projects through to completion. They genuinely care about service and are open to receiving as well as providing constructive feedback.

We are in search of a Senior AI Security Engineer to tackle the emerging security challenges posed by autonomous AI agents. In this pivotal role, you will conduct research, design, and implement innovative strategies to detect and address prompt poisoning, context manipulation, malicious agent behaviors, and other adversarial threats targeting agentic AI systems.
You will collaborate closely with engineering teams to translate advanced security research into effective, deployable security measures that safeguard agents in real-world environments, especially when they interact with untrusted web content.
