- π About WRITER WRITER is where the world's leading enterprises orchestrate AI-powered work.
- And we're proving it's possible β through powerful, trustworthy AI that unites IT and business teams together to unlock enterprise-wide transformation.
- With WRITER's end-to-end platform, hundreds of companies like Mars, Marriott, Uber, and Vanguard are building and deploying AI agents that are grounded in their company's data and fueled by WRITER's enterprise-grade LLMs.
- Valued at $1.9B and backed by industry-leading investors including Premji Invest, Radical Ventures, and ICONIQ Growth, WRITER is rapidly cementing its position as the leader in enterprise generative AI.
- Founded in 2020 with office hubs in San Francisco, New York City, Seattle, Austin, Chicago, and London, our team thinks big and moves fast, and we're looking for smart, hardworking builders and scalers to join us on our journey to create a better future of work with AI. π
- About the role Join WRITER's security team as a staff detection and response engineer and help protect the AI infrastructure that's transforming how the world works.
- You'll build sophisticated detection systems that identify attacks targeting our AI platform, training data, and model deployments while creating automated response capabilities that scale with our explosive growth.
- This isn't just traditional security work β you're defending cutting-edge AI/AGI systems against adversaries who are evolving their tactics as fast as AI itself advances.
- You'll be the operational arm of our security function, translating threat intelligence into real-time detections, coordinating incident response across multiple teams, and hunting for sophisticated attacks across GPU clusters and distributed training environments.
- If you're excited by the challenge of securing systems that are fundamentally different from anything you've protected before, this is your opportunity to define what AI security engineering looks like at scale.
- You'll work closely with our AI Security research team, Cloud Infrastructure, Software Security Engineering, and AI researchers to build a defense-in-depth strategy that protects one of the most valuable AI platforms in the industry.
- π¦Έπ»ββοΈ What youβll do - Design and implement detection strategies that identify AI-specific threats including prompt injection, model extraction, data poisoning, adversarial examples, and unauthorized access to training datasets or model weights across our distributed infrastructure - Build automated response playbooks and orchestration workflows that contain threats without human intervention, creating self-healing security systems that reduce mean time to response from hours to minutes while
