AI Solution Security Engineer
Job Description
Design AI Security architecture and validation frameworks for agentic platforms, connecting local solutions to central security standards.
Responsibilities
- Design security architecture and validation frameworks for agentic platforms, including prompt injection resilience and data flow constraints (e.g., agentic access and vulnerability systems).
- Define technical standards and automated workflows for vulnerability auto-mitigation aligned with global SLO timelines.
- Architect automated access control systems, integration templates, and data flow constraints to help prevent access abuse and data exfiltration.
- Develop holistic mapping of agentic threat models to engineering solutions for preventing and detecting material risks before they manifest.
- Align all technical architectures with central security design standards and act as a primary design conduit to central infrastructure.
- Provide precise technical designs for the Operational Engineering (Build) team to support software fulfillment.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
- 2+ years of experience in security engineering, threat modeling, systems design, or security architecture.
- Experience coding for security-relevant software in C++, Java, Go, or Python.
- Master’s degree or PhD in Computer Science or a related technical field.
- Experience designing security controls for large-scale distributed systems or cloud infrastructure.
- Experience architecting enterprise-scale security tools, access control systems, or observability platforms.
- Deep technical understanding of LLMs and AI security risks including prompt injection and data poisoning, plus deploying deterministic security harnesses.
- Strong ability to influence executive engineering partners on critical design decisions.

About the Job
- gTech Risk helps protect Google and its users by identifying and implementing controls for significant risks.
- gTech Risk Solutions Engineering is evolving from a reactive, manual process to a proactive engineering organization.
- Within the AI Security function, you will support the core experts of the Functional Engineering pod (Strategy and Design).
- You will own overarching system design for autonomous risk identification, AI guardrails, and vulnerability auto-mitigation.
- A key focus is architecting security constraints for gTech’s current and future operations.
- You will design validation frameworks, including prompt injection resilience, for agentic platforms deployed on global configurations.
- You will serve as a bridge to central teams, ensuring local solutions conform to Google’s general security policies while supporting the pace of gTech operations.
