With 40+ years of experience in the insurtech game, we’re not just redefining what’s achievable, we’re creating a place where amazing career moments are made possible. Position Overview Applied Systems is building out its AI security program and seeking an experienced security engineer to help secure our Large Language Models, generative AI systems, and ML infrastructure. This is an emerging role for an engineer who understands traditional security principles deeply and is eager to apply them to the rapidly evolving world of AI, from prompt injection and model poisoning to data privacy in training pipelines. You won't need to be an ML researcher or data scientist, but you should have foundational knowledge of how machine learning works and be genuinely curious about AI-specific security threats. This role offers the opportunity to shape how Applied approaches AI security, work with cutting-edge technology, and grow expertise in an area where few security engineers have deep experience. Ideal for someone who values both hands-on security work and the challenge of learning an emerging domain.
