About the job
Our Security team works to create and maintain the safest operating environment for Google's users and developers. Security Engineers work with network equipment and actively monitor our systems for attacks and intrusions. In this role, you will also work with software engineers to proactively identify and fix security flaws and vulnerabilities.
In this role, you will help us build the most resilient AI infrastructure in the world. This role is designed for a technical expert in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, with a primary interest in how those systems can be defended against adversarial manipulation. You will be responsible for the security configuration of AI deployments, from local on-prem GPU clusters to cloud-native environments. You will understand the nuances of LLMs, neural networks, and containerized ML pipelines, and will apply that knowledge to the frontier of security.
You will have an understanding of how Large Language Models (LLMs) work under the hood and to develop the next generation of automated defenses and adversarial testing frameworks.

Responsibilities

• Architect and manage LLM deployments across on-premises (NVIDIA/AMD) and cloud (cloud computing platform, Google Cloud platform (GCP) environments. Audit multi-agent orchestration, agent construction, and vector databases to map data flows and enforce privilege boundaries.
• Use Docker and Kubernetes to orchestrate scalable inference and training environments, optimizing Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) utilization and resource isolation.
• Protect model weights, secure data ingestion, and harden inference endpoints across the Machine Learning operations (MLOps) lifecycle.
• Investigate and mitigate AI-specific threats (e.g., prompt injection, jailbreaking, data poisoning). Map testing findings to MITRE ATLAS, OWASP for LLMs, and STRIDE models.
• Bridge local high-compute clusters and cloud AI services while maintaining a consistent security posture.
