About the role

We’re looking for a Platform Security Engineer to build the guardrails that keep our AI agents safe to run on real customer data. This isn’t a policy or compliance role—it’s a builder role. You’ll design and ship the code that constrains what an agent can access, do, and expose: scoped credentials, data access boundaries, action validation, and audit trails, so product teams can put agents in front of sensitive government, healthcare, and enterprise data with confidence.

What they're looking for

  • 5 to 8 years as a software engineer building and shipping production systems, with meaningful time spent on security, data protection, or trust & safety problems
  • Strong general-purpose programming skills (Python, Go, TypeScript, or similar), comfortable designing services and APIs other engineers depend on, not just writing scripts or config
  • Experience with or strong working knowledge of how AI agents operate in production, tool use, function calling, orchestration frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph, or similar)
  • Solid grasp of data protection fundamentals: PII handling, access control, encryption, and least privilege, and how they hold up once an agent is in the loop
  • Comfortable designing systems used by other engineers—clear interfaces, sensible defaults, predictable failure modes
  • Working cloud experience (AWS, GCP, or Azure) sufficient to build and deploy services securely

Rebuild how the world works, to make institutions work better for the people they serve.

Brain Co. builds AI-native operating systems for large, regulated institutions. Each system is built for a specific industry, powered by agents that push real workflows forward. Underneath it all is Atlas, our proprietary platform that keeps customers in control, secure by design, and never locked into one model.

Brain Co. is entering its next phase of production deployments on a national scale with an elite team built from Palantir, Google, Meta, and Nvidia, and a growing footprint across government, insurance, health, and financial services.

Joining now means shaping both the company and a new category of applied AI. Every project here ships to production and is expected to create measurable customer value and impact.

You'll work alongside exceptional peers on some of the hardest problems in applied AI. It’s the kind of work you'll still be proud of in ten years from now.
