Offensive Security AI Engineer

Micron Technology•Boise, ID

About The Position

Micron Technology is seeking an Offensive Security AI Engineer to plan and implement adversary-informed security testing across its technology environment. The role extends beyond AI security and includes assessment of web and mobile applications, APIs, cloud services, identity platforms, enterprise infrastructure, endpoints, wireless environments, security controls, and emerging technologies, including AI-enabled systems. AI will be used as a force multiplier across the testing lifecycle, supporting reconnaissance, attack-path analysis, tooling development and debugging, test-case generation and refinement, evidence analysis, and reporting. The engineer will independently validate AI-generated output and assess AI and machine learning systems when applicable, including models, applications, data flows, integrations, guardrails, and infrastructure. The position partners with security, engineering, technology, and business teams to communicate risk, validate mitigations, transfer offensive security knowledge, and improve defensive readiness. The successful candidate balances technical execution with sound judgment, responsible AI use, clear documentation, and communication with technical and non-technical audiences.

Requirements

Significant experience participating in and leading offensive security operations, including penetration testing or red team engagements.
Practical experience testing multiple technology domains, such as applications, APIs, cloud, identity, infrastructure, endpoints, mobile, wireless, or security controls.
Working knowledge of AI and large language model security concepts, common attack surfaces, and risks introduced by models, data, agents, tools, and integrations.
Proficiency in Python, C#, Go, PowerShell, or another language used for security tooling and automation.
Strong written, presentation, and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain highly technical issues to non-technical audiences.

Nice To Haves

Industry-recognized offensive security certifications such as OSCP, OSEP, OSCE3, CRTO, GPEN, GXPN, PNPT, or comparable credentials.
Experience building reusable automation, security testing frameworks, agentic workflows, or integrations that support offensive security operations.
Experience assessing AI-enabled applications or platforms using adversarial testing techniques.
Experience working in complex enterprise, cloud, manufacturing, product security, or globally distributed environments.

Responsibilities

Plan, implement, lead, and report on internal and external penetration tests, red team operations, purple team exercises, and targeted security assessments.
Discover, validate, and safely exploit vulnerabilities end to end across web applications, APIs, cloud platforms, identity systems, networks, endpoints, mobile applications, wireless environments, products, and security controls.
Use AI-assisted workflows to improve reconnaissance, attack-path analysis, test-case development, code review, exploit research, tooling, evidence analysis, and reporting, while independently validating AI-generated output.
Develop, customize, and maintain offensive security tooling, scripts, automation, and proof-of-concept code to increase the scale, consistency, and repeatability of testing.
Assess AI and machine learning systems when in scope, including model behavior, application logic, retrieval and data pipelines, agents and tools, access controls, integrations, guardrails, and infrastructure dependencies.
Emulate realistic adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures to evaluate prevention, detection, investigation, and response capabilities within approved rules of engagement.
Evaluate proposed architecture and design decisions to identify attack paths, trust-boundary weaknesses, insecure assumptions, and gaps in secure design principles.
Collaborate with multifunctional partners to explain findings, prioritize remediation, implement corrective actions, and translate technical risk into business impact.
