AI Research Engineer

We are looking for an AI Research Engineer to build the backbone of our autonomous security platform.
our company builds AI Digital Employees who help cyber teams close the execution gap. Our first AI Digital Employee, Alex, learns, understands and takes away the burden of Identity and Access Management (IAM) tasks - proactively completing the organization's cyber objectives.
About the Role:
You'll own technically difficult problems before the solution is known. Starting with a cybersecurity need, you'll study the domain, frame the technical challenge, investigate possible approaches, and build the solution through production. You'll have access to our company's shared agent infrastructure, but the role goes far beyond configuring existing components. Many use cases will require new reasoning methods, agent architectures, evaluation techniques, data strategies, or model behavior. This is a role for someone who enjoys applied research but is motivated by outcomes. The goal is not simply to prove that an idea can work, it is to make it useful and reliable for customers.
What You'll Do:
Design and implement AI solutions for complex cybersecurity workflows.
Develop new approaches for agent reasoning, planning, tool use, context management, decision-making, and recovery from failures.
Determine the right technical approach for each problem, combining models, algorithms, data, and conventional software where appropriate.
Define quality for each use case and create evaluations that measure correctness, task completion, consistency, safety, latency, and cost.
Analyze agent behavior deeply, identify the underlying causes of failures, and improve the relevant model, data, tool, or architecture.
Collaborate with cybersecurity experts, product teams, software engineers, and AI infrastructure engineers throughout development.
