About The Position

We’re looking for an engineering manager to lead a team building software systems that detect and prevent harmful misuse of frontier AI models—before incidents occur. This is a builder’s role: you’ll lead engineers shipping production services, detection pipelines, and mitigation mechanisms that protect frontier model integrity and reduce high-severity misuse risk. While this work intersects with frontier model development, security and risk, we’re explicitly seeking someone with a software engineering foundation who is comfortable building reliable systems that can operate at billions of users scale.

Requirements

  • Experience building systems in adversarial, fast-evolving environments
  • Are comfortable with ambiguity and novelty
  • Have experience adjacent to security (e.g., abuse prevention, fraud, integrity, platform defense, auth/identity, malware/spam, adversarial environments)
  • Communicate clearly and build trust quickly with senior stakeholders—pragmatic, collaborative, and calm under scrutiny.
  • Significant experience leading engineering teams and delivering production systems end-to-end.
  • Strong technical judgment in system design, distributed systems, data pipelines, observability, and operational reliability.
  • Demonstrated ability to partner cross-functionally with Research/Product/Security to ship systems that materially reduce risk or abuse at scale.
  • Familiarity with model extraction / distillation, adversarial evaluation, or scalable detection/mitigation approaches.

Nice To Haves

  • Background in autonomy, high-scale real-time systems, or intelligence-adjacent technical domains is a plus.

Responsibilities

  • Lead a team of software engineers building detection + mitigation systems for frontier model misuse, with an emphasis on model IP protection / distillation detection and emerging risk surfaces from autonomous agents.
  • Set the technical roadmap and execution strategy: prioritize, design, ship, iterate, measure impact.
  • Build production systems: services, pipelines, tooling, instrumentation, and automation that scale with frontier model usage.
  • Partner deeply with Research and Product to translate evolving model capabilities into concrete tests, signals, and mitigations that can be deployed at scale.
  • Drive strong engineering fundamentals: architecture, reliability, monitoring, performance, and operational excellence.
  • Hire and grow an exceptional team across backend, data systems, and applied ML engineering domains as needed.
  • Anticipate what breaks at scale as agentic workflows become more capable.
