We’re building the next generation of customer experience - real-time AI agents that can understand emotion, resolve issues instantly, and scale across the world’s largest enterprises.\nIt’s an exciting inflection point for the company. While we have been successful, we have larger ambitions. Our goal is to become the go-to AI platform for all enterprise automation, powered by our voice superintelligence. To achieve this, we need more great engineers.\nThe work affects millions of people every day and our engineers have autonomy and make true impact. This opportunity is unique because we have brilliant founders, have found commercial success, and see a clear path to becoming a generational company. Some further info about us:\nVoice AI startup Giga raises $61M Series A\n\nDoorDash and Giga Partnership\n\nGiga builds AI agents trusted by the largest B2C companies in the world. Industry leaders like DoorDash trust Giga with their most complex support and operations workflows across voice, chat, and email. If being a part of this resonates with you, please apply!\nThe Role\nWe're looking for a security engineer to build the systems and practices that keep our platform and our customers' data safe. Our AI agents handle sensitive customer interactions at scale, which means security isn't a side concern here. It's core to the product.\nThis is a hands-on engineering role, not a compliance-checklist role. You'll write code, build tooling, and design systems while also shaping how the rest of the team thinks about security. You'll be the person who makes it easy to build things securely, not the person who slows everyone down.\nWhat You'll Work On\nA few examples from our current priorities:\nApplication security: Securing the platform end-to-end, from the APIs our customers use to configure agents to the systems that handle real-time conversations and customer data\n\nAccess controls and authorization: Building role-based access controls, permissions models, and audit logging so our enterprise customers can manage their teams with confidence\n\nSecurity tooling and automation: Building the infrastructure for vulnerability scanning, dependency auditing, secrets management, and automated detection so security scales with the team\n\nAs a senior security engineer, you'll own security across the stack and have significant influence over how we architect systems. You'll work closely with backend and infrastructure engineers to make sure security is baked into our platform from the start.\nTech Stack\nBackend: Python (Django/FastAPI), TypeScript (Node.js)\n\nInfrastructure: AWS, Modal, Kubernetes, Postgres\n\nTooling: Terraform, Docker, CI/CD pipelines\n\nYou Might Be a Fit If You\nHave 4+ years of experience in security engineering, with a strong software engineering foundation\n\nHave secured production systems handling sensitive data and understand the difference between theoretical risks and real ones\n\nCan write production-quality code, not just review it: you'll build security tooling and features, not just file tickets\n\nThink about security as an enabler, not a blocker: you make it easy for other engineers to do the right thing\n\nAre comfortable across application security, infrastructure security, and cloud security\n\nAre excited about the unique security challenges of AI agents: prompt injection, data leakage, and problems that don't have established playbooks yet\n\nPerks & Benefits\nCatered lunch daily\n\nDinner stipend\n\n$150/month wellness benefit (gym, fitness classes, mental health)\n\n401(k) plan\n\nCommuter benefits\n\nMedical, dental, and vision coverage\n\nGiga is an equal opportunity employer. We're committed to providing equal employment opportunities regardless of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3961,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":4,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Artificial Intelligence","Conversational AI","Speech & Audio AI","Contact Center Software"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-02-20T22:20:53Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 4","filings_12m":4,"filings_prev_12m":0,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":152500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-15T11:24:14+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":4,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.157,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":238,"expected_fill_days":28,"reasons":["conf:3","stale_co","ghost","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-17T05:46:00Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":350000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/giga-ai-security-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/giga-ai-security-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-18T03:27:15Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":5405,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-19T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":21351},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=21351"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fgiga-ai-security-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fgiga-ai-security-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fgiga-ai-security-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/giga-ai-security-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fgiga-ai-security-engineer"}]}
