Position Summary

The Lead AI Developer – Infrastructure Security Automation (L3) is a principal technical lead role responsible for architecting and directing the delivery of production-grade AI systems, agentic platforms, and LLM-powered security capabilities . Operating within the Cyber Security Division, this role leads the design of advanced RAG systems, agentic state machines, model strategy (hosted and open-source fine-tuning/quantization), and evaluation frameworks . The Lead sets technical standards across Python/Java backend services, establishes threat modeling practices for AI workloads, and collaborates closely with security, DevOps, and infrastructure leadership to automate critical security operations

Requirements

Key Responsibilities

• AI Systems & Agentic Architecture: Architect and lead delivery of production AI systems and agentic platforms for vulnerability triage, remediation copilots, log/incident analysis, policy-as-code reviews, and natural-language query over security data .
  

• End-to-End LLM Strategy: Own LLM application architecture end-to-end: model selection, prompt strategy, RAG design, agent/tool orchestration, memory management, guardrails, and cost/latency optimization .
  

• Evaluation & Quality Frameworks: Design and implement evaluation frameworks including offline benchmarks, online A/B and shadow testing, human-in-the-loop reviews, regression suites, and continuous quality monitoring for hallucination, accuracy, latency, and cost .
  

• Advanced RAG & Knowledge Systems: Lead RAG design covering ingestion pipelines, chunking and indexing strategies, embedding selection, hybrid retrieval (vector + lexical + re-ranking), and grounding patterns .
  

• Agentic System Engineering: Drive agentic system design using planner/executor patterns, tool use, multi-step workflows, error recovery, and safe action boundaries, while setting up agent observability and tracing .
  

• Responsible AI & Threat Modeling: Establish responsible-AI standards (prompt-injection defenses, PII handling, output validation, red-teaming, audit logging) and lead threat modeling for AI/LLM systems (adversarial prompt attacks, data poisoning, supply-chain risks) .
  

• Model Optimization & Strategy: Evaluate hosted vs. open-source models; direct fine-tuning, distillation, and quantization strategies to balance accuracy, latency, cost, and data sovereignty .
  

• Engineering Leadership & Standards: Own production backend services in Python (and Java where required), define engineering standards (design reviews, testing, observability), and oversee internal tool UIs/dashboards .
  

Candidate Profile & Qualifications

• Experience: 6 to 9 years of software engineering & AI developer leadership experience .
  

• Education: https://jobeax.com/link/2DENLGgQM7whDhaE or https://jobeax.com/link/s1WvHFV9ITSwCkyS in Computer Science, IT, or related technical field .

  • LLM & Model Expertise: Deep hands-on experience with LLM provider APIs (Anthropic, OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Vertex AI) and open-source model stacks (Llama, Mistral, Qwen) including self-hosted serving, fine-tuning, and quantization .
    

  • Orchestration & Agents: Strong command of orchestration frameworks (LangChain, LlamaIndex, LangGraph, Haystack); hands-on agentic experience (tool use, planner/executor patterns, state machines) and observability (LangSmith, Langfuse, Arize, Helicone) .
    

  • RAG & Vector Stores: Production RAG experience across ingestion pipelines, hybrid retrieval, re-ranking, and tuning with vector stores (pgvector, Pinecone, Weaviate, Chroma, FAISS, Azure AI Search, Vertex AI Vector Search) .
    

  • Engineering & Backend: Production backend services in Python (and Java where required) alongside basic frontend/dashboard design .
