Security Engineer (Automation & AI)

WHO WE ARE Most companies are racing to deploy AI, but very few have the foundation to make it work reliably. Atlan is building that missing layer: the context layer for enterprise AI. We connect the business context behind data so humans and agents can operate with far more accuracy and confidence. With backing from world-class investors including GIC, Insight Partners, Meritech, Peak XV, and Salesforce Ventures, we've earned the trust of most AI-forward enterprises like General Motors, Nasdaq, Workday and Elastic. Come build the infrastructure that AI runs on. WHAT WILL YOU DO? 🤔 At Atlan, security engineers ship products. If your instinct when you see a recurring finding is to build the system that eliminates it permanently -- not file another ticket -- this role is for you. You'll own AppSec and Cloud Security automation across a platform used by 450+ enterprise customers in regulated industries, with AI as your primary force multiplier. - AI-Powered Security Agents: Build AI agents that handle vulnerability triage, automated security reviews of PRs, and initial incident forensics at scale. Hands-on production experience is required. - Cloud Security Automation: Build systems that automatically detect and remediate security gaps across AWS (primary), GCP, and Azure -- configuration drift, IAM misconfigurations, vulnerable dependencies, exposed secrets. You own this end-to-end, not just the detection layer. - Application Security: Lead threat modeling, security reviews, and risk assessments across web applications, APIs, and services. Work with engineering to eliminate vulnerability classes end-to-end -- writing or reviewing fixes, not just filing findings. - Developer Security (Shift-Left): Embed security into the developer workflow. Integrate SAST/SCA and secrets detection into CI/CD, making "Secure by Default" the path of least resistance for every engineer on the platform. WHAT MAKES YOU A GREAT MATCH FOR US? 😍 - 4-6 years of experience in a cloud-native Sa
