Title: AI Penetration Testing Platform Engineer
Duration: Through 4/19/26, potential extension
Location: Onsite 3 days a week in Irving, TX, Jersey City, NJ or Tampa, FL
Responsibilities
- This role requires a senior Hybrid AI-Powered Penetration Testing Platform Engineer with deep expertise in the full lifecycle management of enterprise third-party security platforms — from initial build and certification through integration, deployment, and ongoing operational management.
- The consultant will own the engineering delivery of a hybrid AI-powered penetration testing platform, managing a complex mix of cloud-hosted and on-premises infrastructure and application components that together form a highly integrated, operationally demanding security capability.
- Given the hybrid and distributed nature of the platform — where significant infrastructure and application components are provisioned, configured, and operated directly by the team within cloud environments — cloud-native engineering expertise is a core and non-negotiable requirement of this role.
Requirements- 7+ years of experience engineering, deploying, and managing enterprise security platforms, with proven expertise across the full lifecycle including platform build, certification, integration, deployment, and operational support.
- Strong hands-on experience designing and administering hybrid security environments that span both cloud-hosted and on-premises infrastructure, applications, and supporting services.
- Deep knowledge of cloud-native technologies and engineering practices, including infrastructure provisioning, automation, configuration management, monitoring, and operational management within public cloud environments.
- Demonstrated experience delivering and supporting penetration testing, vulnerability management, offensive security, or AI-powered cybersecurity platforms in large-scale enterprise environments.
- Proven ability to lead complex platform engineering initiatives, troubleshoot highly integrated systems, and ensure security, performance, scalability, and operational reliability across distributed enterprise architectures.
