ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY
 
Artera is seeking a hands-on Senior Application Security Engineer AI & Product Security to work alongside our AI builders and Systems Engineers to threat-model agentic and LLM-powered features harden PHI/PII-handling workflows and ship the "paved road" tooling (secure SDLC guardrails prompt/agent-identity patterns SAST/DAST/SCA in CI/CD) that keeps innovation fast and safe.  
 
This is a frontier role. You'll be operating where AI security is still being defined — translating policy into code building guardrails for agent identity and prompt/output filtering and giving our team the logging scanning and safe tool-use patterns. Artera Security finds the secure path and ships it with our AI Builders and System Engineers.
 
This role is based in our Seattle WA office. In-person collaboration is intentional – you'll be working shoulder-to-shoulder with our AI builders Systems Engineers and security leadership as we build Artera's Seattle tech hub.
 
This role supports federal-facing systems and contributes to enterprise security functions. Candidates must meet eligibility for a government background check and follow strict data protection access control and incident response protocols. Familiarity with regulatory frameworks is expected. Ongoing compliance training and evidence-based documentation may be required.

Responsibilities

  • AI Threat Modeling: Threat-model agentic and LLM-powered features end-to-end: data ingress/egress agent identity tool-use boundaries and the unique risks that come with frontier AI work
  • Paved Road Tooling: Build the secure SDLC paved road — secure SDLC guardrails prompt/agent identity patterns secrets management PHI/PII redaction patterns
  • Security Gates: Embed SAST DAST SCA and infrastructure scanning into CI/CD so security gates are part of the pipeline not an afterthought
  • AI Monitoring Strategy: Identify and pilot an AI monitoring tool to fill the gap our current tooling (Zscaler) doesn't cover
  • Policy -> Practice: Translate existing security policy into safe tool-use patterns for the Artera Primitives team Systems Engineers and other AI Builder squads
  • Cross Functional Partnership: Partner cross-functionally with DevOps Systems Engineering and the AI builder teams — meeting AI Builders and engineers in the middle and finding the secure path forward not the "no" path
  • Security Ownership: Own AWS identity and access management patterns secrets management and security tooling decisions in our AWS environment. Collaborate with System Engineers / DevOps on implementation.
  • Security Framework Application: Apply frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK MITRE ATLAS OWASP Top 10 and OWASP LLM Top 10 to architectural decisions.

Requirements

  • AppSec Tenure: 6–10 years in Application Security with a hands-on engineering orientation
  • LLM & Agent Security: Demonstrable experience with LLM and agent security — OWASP LLM Top 10 MITRE ATLAS prompt/output filtering agent identity and tool-use risk
  • Threat Modeling Expertise: You’ve built end-to-end threat models for production platforms and translated them into corrective controls
  • Pipeline Scanning Tools: SAST DAST and infrastructure scanning tools in production CI/CD environments
  • Shift-Left Security Experience: Taking policy codifying it as infrastructure-as-code (Terraform) and gating CI/CD pipelines on security findings
  • Cloud Depth: Significant AWS experience (GCP or Azure background acceptable; AWS is learnable but cloud depth is required)
  • Regulated Environment Experience: Background in regulated environments — healthcare (HIPAA/HITRUST) federal (FedRAMP) or fintech (PCI)
  • Collaborative Communicator: Strong cross-functional communicator;able to partner with engineers and AI builders find the secure path together.

Bonus

  • Agentic AI Modeling: Direct experience threat modeling agentic AI systems (rare — but if you have it you're the cherry on top)
  • Agentic Platform Exposure: AWS Agent Core MCP or similar agent-platform exposure
  • Growth Stage AI Experience: Experience at a growth-stage company (~50–500 people) that has already adopted agentic AI
  • Fintech to Agentic Path: Background in fintech transitioning into agentic systems (a common path into this kind of work today)
  • AI Monitoring Tool Ownership: Past ownership of an AI monitoring tool rollout or evaluation
