About The Position

This role requires a senior Hybrid AI-Powered Penetration Testing Platform Engineer with deep expertise in the full lifecycle management of enterprise third-party security platforms — from initial build and certification through integration, deployment, and ongoing operational management. The consultant will own the engineering delivery of a hybrid AI-powered penetration testing platform, managing a complex mix of cloud-hosted and on-premises infrastructure and application components that together form a highly integrated, operationally demanding security capability. Given the hybrid and distributed nature of the platform — where significant infrastructure and application components are provisioned, configured, and operated directly by the team within cloud environments — cloud-native engineering expertise is a core and non-negotiable requirement of this role.

Requirements

7+ years of experience engineering, deploying, and managing enterprise security platforms, with proven expertise across the full lifecycle including platform build, certification, integration, deployment, and operational support.
Strong hands-on experience designing and administering hybrid security environments that span both cloud-hosted and on-premises infrastructure, applications, and supporting services.
Deep knowledge of cloud-native technologies and engineering practices, including infrastructure provisioning, automation, configuration management, monitoring, and operational management within public cloud environments.
Demonstrated experience delivering and supporting penetration testing, vulnerability management, offensive security, or AI-powered cybersecurity platforms in large-scale enterprise environments.
Proven ability to lead complex platform engineering initiatives and troubleshoot highly integrated systems.

Responsibilities

Own the engineering delivery of a hybrid AI-powered penetration testing platform.
Manage a complex mix of cloud-hosted and on-premises infrastructure and application components.
Provision, configure, and operate significant infrastructure and application components within cloud environments.
Ensure security, performance, scalability, and operational reliability across distributed enterprise architectures.
