About The Position
Ōura is seeking an AI Security Engineer to join its Detection & Response team. The role focuses on building AI agents and automations for the security incident lifecycle, threat hunting, and detection engineering. The company is building an AI-native detection and response program in which agents investigate and resolve routine alerts while people handle more complex decisions. The engineer will develop practical solutions in Ōura’s environment to protect its systems, data, and members. This is a remote role based in the United States, with a strong preference for candidates on the East Coast. Ōura also has offices in San Francisco, San Diego, and Los Angeles for employees who prefer hybrid or office settings. Employees in other major cities, including Boston and New York, may gather informally at local coworking locations.
