Senior AI Platform Engineer - Security
Employer · Esko
Budapest
We are building shared security foundations for Esko's AI Platform so product teams can develop AI capabilities without implementing critical controls independently. As part of the platform team, you will help shape and build these foundations, taking end-to-end ownership of substantial security areas.
Tasks
- Help shape the AI Platform's security architecture and take end-to-end ownership of substantial security components.
- Design and build identity, authorization, delegated-access, and policy-enforcement controls for AI systems, including tenant-, user-, document-, and tool-level permissions.
- Secure retrieval, tool use, and execution against prompt injection, unauthorized actions, data leakage, and other AI-specific threats.
- Design controls proportionate to the risk of an action, including approval gates, isolation, execution limits, and recovery mechanisms.
- Build audit and monitoring capabilities so security-relevant activity is traceable and high-risk behavior can be detected, investigated, and routed for appropriate review.
- Conduct threat modelling and adversarial testing, translating findings into shared platform controls and secure defaults for product teams.
- Work with cloud platform teams, security engineers, compliance specialists, and product engineering teams to integrate controls that satisfy Esko's security obligations while remaining practical to adopt and operate.
