Senior Security Engineer – AI Platform

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Canada.

📋 Description

• Continuously track the product roadmaps, release notes, and vendor communications for Claude and ChatGPT to foresee platform changes before they occur.

• Proactively convert upcoming features into configuration, policy, and enablement decisions rather than reacting to changes.

• Foster active relationships with Anthropic and OpenAI account teams; proactively address ToS updates, changes in data processing agreements, and shifts in acceptable use policies to avoid surprises.

• Provide expert-level administration of AI console environments across both platforms.

• Manage organizational settings files for Claude and ChatGPT through Git, ensuring they are version-controlled, reviewed, and deployed like traditional infrastructure.

• Oversee the lifecycle management of API keys and maintain hygiene of secrets across all AI integrations.

• Administer SSO/SCIM provisioning for AI platforms; ensure access is secure, auditable, and well-maintained.

• Create token tracking and financial dashboards to inform leadership of AI costs categorized by team, use case, and month.

• Implement anomaly detection for AI spending; if costs rise unexpectedly, you will identify it before it reaches accounting.

• Generate regular reports on usage trends and ROI metrics for leadership, providing insights that extend beyond the mere observation of AI utilization.

• Develop and maintain internal MCP servers that integrate AI capabilities securely into our workflows.

• Act as the in-house subject matter expert on agentic AI development, covering aspects such as architecture, risk, failure modes, and unforeseen complications.

• Write code proficiently in Python and/or TypeScript. AI-augmented coding is acceptable (and encouraged), but you must take ownership of the final product.

• Identify and address prompt injection risks within internal AI-powered tools.

• Ensure that no sensitive or regulated data (e.g., PII, PCI, PHI) is incorporated into AI prompts. Design the necessary guardrails, not just the policies.

• Stay informed about AI-specific incident response strategies; when issues arise with AI integrations, you will be involved in the resolution process.

• Serve as the primary liaison between IT Engineering and the AI Adoption Committee, providing operational insights to inform adoption decisions.

• Actively engage in the AI Working Group, linking platform capabilities with actual company usage.

• Collaborate closely with the Governance & Trust team, which oversees AI policy and governance. Your role will be to implement, inform, and highlight issues, rather than to create the policies themselves.

⛳️ Requirements

• Exceptional interpersonal skills and a team-oriented approach.

• More than 5 years of experience in security engineering, IT engineering, or a DevOps role with significant security responsibilities.

• Practical DevOps experience: proficiency in Git-based configuration management, CI/CD, and an infrastructure-as-code mindset applied to platform administration.

• Direct, hands-on experience managing Claude (Anthropic) and/or ChatGPT (OpenAI) at an organizational level, involving console administration and enterprise controls, not just personal use.

• Familiarity with AI risk factors, including prompt injection, data leakage, agentic failure modes, and incident response strategies for unexpected AI behavior.

• Proficient in writing production-quality code in Python and/or TypeScript, particularly for dashboards, automation, and MCP server development.

• Experience with Google Cloud Platform and cloud-native environments.

• Knowledge of SSO/SCIM provisioning in SaaS-dominant environments (e.g., Okta or similar).

• Strong written communication skills; you will regularly translate technical changes in AI platforms into clear guidance for non-technical stakeholders.
