AI Deployment Engineer, Cyber

About the Role

The cybersecurity landscape is evolving rapidly, with security teams under pressure to reason across code, logs, infrastructure, tickets, alerts, and vulnerability data faster than ever. As a trusted technical advisor and thought partner, you will work side by side with customers to evaluate, validate, and safely deploy AI systems in security-critical workflows. Your ability to communicate credibly with CISOs, CTOs, and security executives will be essential in driving business outcomes.

The role is based in Openai's San Francisco HQ, with relocation support available to new employees. As a customer-facing technical role, you will be expected to move fluidly between executive strategy, practitioner-level cyber depth, and hands-on solution design.

What You Will Do

• Embed with strategic customers as the technical lead for AI-enabled cybersecurity workflows, serving as a trusted partner to both security executives and technical practitioners.
• Lead discovery across AppSec, DevSecOps, vulnerability management, SOC/IR, detection engineering, red team, cloud security, identity, and GRC automation use cases.
• Build and deliver customer-facing demos, prototypes, workshops, proofs of concept, and reference architectures using Openai APIs, Codex, agents, scripts, CLIs, GitHub workflows, CI/CD systems, logs, tickets, scanners, and common security tools.
• Scope pilots with clear success criteria, data requirements, workflow integrations, evaluation methods, security constraints, safety boundaries, and human approval points.
• Advise customers on safe implementation patterns, including tool and function calling, structured outputs, retrieval, sandboxing, data handling, guardrails, telemetry, auditability, and approval-gated side effects.
• Translate between CISO-level outcomes and practitioner-level implementation details so each audience understands value, risk, and practical next steps.
• Create reusable field assets such as demo narratives, playbooks, FAQs, objection handling, qualification guides, assessment templates, and competitive positioning.
• Validate, synthesize, and deliver high-signal feedback to Product, Engineering, Research, Security, and GTM teams based on recurring customer requirements, blockers, product gaps, and emerging cyber workflows.

What We Are Looking For

• 5+ years of technical consulting, solutions engineering, security architecture, cyber advisory, deployment engineering, professional services, or equivalent customer-facing technical experience.
• Strong cybersecurity domain expertise across one or more areas such as application security, cloud security, identity, vulnerability management, secure SDLC, incident response, detection engineering, threat intelligence, red teaming, or security architecture.
• Ability to communicate credibly with CISOs, CTOs, security executives, and technical practitioners.
• Experience with GTM strategies and tactics, including sales engineering, solution selling, and customer success.
• Strong understanding of AI-powered security solutions, including machine learning, natural language processing, and computer vision.
• Ability to design and deliver technical presentations, demos, and workshops to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Strong problem-solving skills, with the ability to analyze complex technical problems and develop creative solutions.

Nice to Have

• Experience with Openai's AI technologies, including APIs, Codex, and agents.
• Knowledge of security frameworks, regulations, and standards, including NIST, ISO 27001, and PCI-DSS.
• Familiarity with cloud security platforms, including AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.
• Experience with DevSecOps tools, including Jenkins, GitLab, and CircleCI.
• Certification in cybersecurity, such as CISSP, CISM, or CEH.

Benefits and Perks

• Competitive salary and equity package.
• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance.
• Flexible PTO policy, with generous paid time off.
• Remote work stipend, with support for home office setup and equipment.
• Professional development opportunities, including training, conferences, and workshops.
• Access to cutting-edge technologies and tools, including Openai's AI platforms.
• Collaborative and dynamic work environment, with a team of experienced professionals.

• Develop a strong understanding of AI-powered security solutions, including machine learning, natural language processing, and computer vision.
• Build a portfolio of your work, including demos, prototypes, and case studies that showcase your technical expertise and business acumen.
• Prepare to discuss your experience with GTM strategies and tactics, including sales engineering, solution selling, and customer success.
• Research Openai's AI technologies, including APIs, Codex, and agents, and be prepared to discuss how you can apply them to real-world cybersecurity use cases.
• Practice communicating complex technical ideas to both technical and non-technical audiences, including CISOs, CTOs, and security executives.
• Be prepared to discuss your experience with security frameworks, regulations, and standards, including NIST, ISO 27001, and PCI-DSS.
