Since then, we’ve expanded rapidly, with hospitals nationwide open 24/7/365, and created an ER experience that focuses on what our pets and pet parents really need. We’ve done the same for our people (VEGgies), finding a way to say YES so they are empowered to achieve great things, grow in unexpected ways, and find a place where they truly belong.\nWe’re rethinking emergency care from every angle-from how we run our hospitals to how we support the people working inside them. That’s where our headquarters team comes in. Whether building technology to make our hospitals more efficient, recruiting and growing incredible VEGgies, or bringing our brand to life through marketing, our VQ (VEG Headquarters) team makes it all possible-ensuring our hospitals and people have everything they need to help pets and their families.\nVEG is a 2025 and 2026 certified Great Place to Work®.\nTHE JOB\nWe’re looking for someone who thinks like an attacker and builds like an engineer-and who’s genuinely excited about securing AI. At VEG, we find a way to say YES to adopting AI fast, and this role is what makes that safe. As our AI Security Engineer, you’ll be the technical owner of AI security across the company: assessing the AI tools and agents we adopt, hardening the AI we build into our own systems, and defending against AI-enabled threats. You’ll turn our AI governance framework into real, working controls-so teams can innovate instead of wait. This is a rare chance to shape a discipline from the ground up, spanning offensive testing, detection, and secure design in one seat, at the frontier of both security and veterinary emergency medicine. If you’re curious about a fast-moving field and want to build something that matters, we want you on our team.\nWHAT YOU’LL DO\nAssess AI tools, models, agents, and integrations before adoption-analyzing data flows, connector and plugin risk, and testing for prompt injection and data leakage. \nImplement and operate security controls on approved AI platforms: access management, data loss prevention, logging, and usage monitoring. \nPartner with Engineering to design AI features securely from the start.\nBuild and maintain AI security standards, threat models, and incident response playbooks.\nEnforce our AI risk tiers and keep an inventory of AI usage across the company.\nAdvise teams on secure, practical ways to adopt AI.\nWHAT YOU NEED\n2+ years in security engineering-application, cloud, or a related area (or equivalent experience). \nHands-on experience securing or building AI/LLM-based systems, and familiarity with their failure modes. \nUnderstanding of the LLM attack surface-prompt injection, data exfiltration, and agent or tool misuse. \nComfort with AI platforms and APIs (e.g., Anthropic, OpenAI), SaaS security tooling, and identity providers like Okta. \nStrong threat-modeling skills and the ability to explain AI risk to engineers and non-technical stakeholders alike.\nWHO YOU ARE\nEmpathetic, instinctively taking a people-centric approach, whether supporting your colleagues or making an effort to understand different perspectives\nHave a sense of humility; acknowledging mistakes, sharing credit with others, and lifting up your team’s’ accomplishments\nFeel a strong sense of ownership over your work, taking responsibility for outcomes and staying committed to achieving long-term, impactful results \nCurious by nature; you ask insightful questions and continuously seek out opportunities to learn and grow your skills and knowledge\nHOW WE INVEST IN YOU\nCompetitive Compensation Including $120,000 - $150,000 + bonus + benefits.\nComprehensive health and wellness benefits that start on day one, and access to free therapy or counseling\nPaid parental leave, up to 12 weeks at 100% of regular salary, and offering inclusive fertility and family-building care for all types of families\nUnlimited PTO to use for vacation or sick days-however you need it! \nGenerous employee referral program, so our awesome people can bring in more awesome people.\nAnd the little (big) things, like casual office attire, ability to bring your fur baby to work, cool VEG swag, food in the fridge for when you’re hungry and free lunches twice a week!!\nCompany laptop and a monthly cell phone reimbursement\nBETTER TOGETHER: WHY IN-PERSON MATTERS AT VEG HQ \nOur hospitals thrive on in-person collaboration, and VQ is no different. Time in the office sparks stronger connections, meaningful conversations, and better results-all bringing our core values to life. We prioritize being present because our values are best achieved side by side. Plus, we make getting here easy with free parking and a shuttle from the White Plains Metro-North station.\nDEI\nAt VEG, diversity is not just a word-it's a strength that fuels innovation and kindness. Our mission is “Helping people and their pets when they need it most.” And we do that better when our VEGgies (employees) feel valued, respected, and empowered to bring their authentic selves to work. That's why we're devoted to creating an environment that reflects the diverse communities we serve-where different perspectives are not only welcomed but celebrated.\nWe are focused on providing equitable opportunities for growth, promoting inclusive decision-making, and ensuring that everyone's perspective is considered. Saying yes to VEG means helping us build a culture where your unique experiences and background contribute to a shared vision: being the world’s veterinary emergency company.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5635,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":2,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Parental leave","Unlimited PTO"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Veterinary Medicine"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-11T06:56:39Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 21","filings_12m":21,"filings_prev_12m":16,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":127500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-29T16:27:21+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":15,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.429,"p_room":0.36,"age_days":69,"expected_fill_days":40,"reasons":["conf:4","stale_co","velocity","win:tail","crowd:junior,brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-30T05:48:23Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":150000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/veg-ai-security-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/veg-ai-security-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-30T11:07:05Z","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":15990,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-31T00:00:00Z"}},"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":690181},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=690181"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fveg-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%2Fveg-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%2Fveg-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/veg-ai-security-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fveg-ai-security-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":719944}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"veg.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":719944},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
