Job description

About the Position

We are looking for a Senior Security Software Engineer to build cloud security AI accelerators, writing Python code, developing REST APIs, and implementing GenAI workflows that automate cloud infrastructure baselines, drift detection, and AI asset discovery across a large-scale financial services environment. You will build AI agents for inventory data quality validation, write Rego policies for CI/CD pipeline inspection, generate compliant Terraform modules, and integrate LLM APIs including OpenAI and Anthropic into production automation systems. The role requires 5+ years of software engineering experience with strong Python fundamentals and hands-on LLM API integration.

Responsibilities

  • Build and implement AI agents to automate inventory data quality validation, reconciliation, and ownership attribution to reduce manual security operations efforts.
  • Write and validate Rego policies and Regula test cases that inspect Terraform passing through CI/CD pipelines.
  • Generate compliant Terraform modules based on AI-accelerated configuration requirements for new cloud resources (e.g., AWS S3).
  • Develop robust REST APIs and scripts that routinely perform drift detection, deploy live test resources, and verify expected outputs from cloud service endpoints.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of hands-on software engineering experience.
  • Strong Python development fundamentals (clean, maintainable code, OOP/functional patterns, testing).
  • Proven REST API development experience.
  • Hands-on experience integrating LLM APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic) into Python applications, with a baseline understanding of developer-centric AI concepts like RAG and vector embeddings. No ML model training or data science background is required.
  • Practical experience deploying applications to Cloud environments (AWS preferred) and writing Infrastructure as Code (Terraform).
  • Ability to operate with minimal supervision on day-to-day execution, reliably completing complex automation tasks.
  • Upper-intermediate English level.

Nice to Have

  • Experience building high-performance endpoints using FastAPI.
  • Hands-on scripting experience with LangChain or LangGraph.
  • Practical experience writing Rego policies for Wiz Custom Configuration Rules or Regula.

We Offer

  • Growth without limits: build your skills through mentorship, internal TechTalks, challenging projects, and a dedicated annual learning budget.
  • Competitive compensation: get recognition that reflects your skills and impact, with regular performance and compensation reviews.
  • Flexibility: work 100% remotely with flexible hours that support focus, autonomy, and a healthy work rhythm.
  • Meaningful, modern projects: build impactful products using modern technologies alongside global teams and leading brands.
  • Collaborative culture: join a supportive environment with zero micromanagement where ideas are welcomed and contributions are recognized.
  • Well-being & support: access local well-being programs and people-focused support tailored to your location.

About the Company

We are a remote-first company, so all our positions are remote. Schedules are flexible, but the main requirement is to have an overlap with your client’s schedule to ensure smooth collaboration. Specific details depend on the project and are discussed during the interview process.
