## About the role

Abnormal AI is looking for a Senior Cloud Security Engineer to help build the next generation of security capabilities at scale. This is a senior IC-level role that blends deep security expertise with the judgment to direct AI tools effectively — you'll increasingly rely on AI to scaffold Terraform modules, prototype detection logic, and draft integrations, while you own the architecture decisions, validate what ships, and catch the failure modes AI won't flag on its own (overprivileged roles, missed edge cases,...

## What they're looking for

- An intellectually curious, solution-focused engineer with a security mindset who thrives in fast-paced environments
- A technical leader who can architect scalable security solutions while maintaining engineering velocity — increasingly by directing AI to do the first draft and applying judgment to the result
- Someone who thinks like an attacker but builds like a defender, and who treats AI-generated infrastructure and detection logic with the same scrutiny as a junior engineer's first PR
- Someone with high agency who proactively spots what in their own workflow (and the team's) AI can absorb, and actually builds the automation to make that real — not someone waiting to be told
- A collaborative engineer who can translate security requirements into actionable engineering tasks
- Proven delivery in security engineering or infrastructure security roles, ideally in cloud-native environments
