Own the quality, performance, and operational health of what you build, using strong testing, telemetry, and thoughtful error handling so defenders can trust the exposure insights we deliver. Contribute to shaping the scope and technical direction of your projects by helping turn ambiguous problems in attack-path analysis, asset discovery, and AI-driven risk into well-defined, achievable actions. Collaborate across teams to reach shared goals and growing into an engineer others rely on for support and clear thinking. Work at the leading edge of Securing AI, gaining hands-on experience with the novel security challenges of an AI-driven threat landscape and the massive, rich datasets that make MSEM a rare place to grow as an engineer. * Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or related technical field AND 6+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, C, Java, JavaScript, or Python, or equivalent experience. * Master's Degree in Computer Science or related technical field AND 8+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, C, Java, JavaScript, or Python. 6+ years designing, building, and operating scalable cloud services or distributed systems (Azure/AWS/GCP) with production ownership and CI/CD integration. 6+ years programming in C, Java, Go, or Python. 8+ years developing high-throughput, multi-tenant services with strong fundamentals in concurrency, resiliency, error handling, testing, and maintainability. Experience with live-site operations, telemetry/monitoring, incident response, and performance optimization of production systems. Experience with large-scale data processing or pipelines (e.g., Kusto/Azure Data Explorer, Spark, or similar) to turn high-volume signal into actionable insight.
