AI Security Engineer / Offensive Security Engineer

📋 Job Overview

Our client is looking for a highly hands-on security engineer to continuously attack, test, and strengthen their AI product and infrastructure. This person should think like a white-hat hacker: spend meaningful time trying to break the system, identify vulnerabilities across agents, APIs, identity, memory, permissions, data flows, and infrastructure, then work directly with engineering to understand, prioritize, and fix what they find.

🏢 About Truelogic

At Truelogic we are a leading provider of nearshore staff augmentation services headquartered in New York. For over two decades, we’ve been delivering top-tier technology solutions to companies of all sizes, from innovative startups to industry leaders, helping them achieve their digital transformation goals. Our team of 600+ highly skilled tech professionals, based in Latin America, drives digital disruption by partnering with U.S. companies on their most impactful projects. Whether collaborating with Fortune 500 giants or scaling startups, we deliver results that make a difference.

🎯 The Role

The candidate should have a strong grounding in modern application and cloud security best practices without feeling the need to reinvent the wheel, and be comfortable using automation and AI agents to accelerate security testing, vulnerability discovery, triage, and remediation. Day to day, this could mean orchestrating agents to probe the system, investigating suspicious behavior or failure modes, reproducing exploits, hardening production systems, and gradually building an iterative defensive security layer around the product.

✅ Key Responsibilities

• Continuously red-team the company's product, infrastructure, APIs, and agentic systems.
• Identify and reproduce vulnerabilities, then partner with engineers through remediation.
• Test AI-specific attack surfaces including prompt injection, tool misuse, data leakage, permission escalation, memory poisoning, and unsafe agent behavior.
• Use agents, automation, and security tooling to continuously probe systems and surface weaknesses.
• Triage findings based on exploitability, user impact, and business risk.
• Strengthen authentication, authorization, identity, secrets management, data boundaries, and infrastructure security.
• Build lightweight monitoring, testing, and defensive systems that improve continuously as the product evolves.
• Help establish pragmatic security standards and development practices without introducing unnecessary process.

📌 Required Qualifications

• Strong experience in application, product, cloud, or offensive security.
• Hands-on ability to identify, exploit, debug, and remediate vulnerabilities.
• Solid understanding of modern web architecture, APIs, authentication/authorization, cloud infrastructure, and data security.
• Strong engineering fundamentals and enough coding ability to build security tooling, automation, and fixes.
• Familiarity with AI/LLM security risks and strong interest in securing agentic systems.
• Comfortable operating in a fast-moving, zero-to-one environment where the security model is evolving alongside the product.
• Pragmatic judgment: knows established security best practices, applies them well, and knows when deeper investigation is actually warranted.
• Located in Latin America.
• Fluent English level.

⭐ Desirable Experience

• Experience red-teaming LLM or agent systems, building automated security testing infrastructure, or working on products involving sensitive identity, memory, permissions, or user data would be particularly valuable.

🎁 Benefits

• 100% Remote Work: Enjoy the freedom to work from the location that helps you thrive. All it takes is a laptop and a reliable internet connection.
• Highly Competitive USD Pay: Earn an excellent, market-leading compensation in USD, that goes beyond typical market offerings.
• Paid Time Off: We value your well-being. Our paid time off policies ensure you have the chance to unwind and recharge when needed.
• Work with Autonomy: Enjoy the freedom to manage your time as long as the work gets done. Focus on results, not the clock.
• Work with Top American Companies: Grow your expertise working on innovative, high-impact projects with Industry-Leading U.S. Companies.
