Writer is an enterprise generative AI platform valued at $1.9B, helping leading companies like Mars, Marriott, Uber, and Vanguard build and deploy AI agents grounded in their data. The company is hiring a Staff Detection and Response Engineer to join the security team and protect Writer's AI infrastructure, training data, and model deployments.
In this role, you'll design and implement detection strategies for AI-specific threats including prompt injection, model extraction, data poisoning, adversarial examples, and unauthorized access to training datasets or model weights across distributed infrastructure. You'll build automated response playbooks and orchestration workflows that contain threats without human intervention, reducing mean time to response from hours to minutes while automatically remediating compromised inference endpoints.
You'll lead security incident response coordination across all teams (Cloud, AppSec, Enterprise, AI Security) when AI infrastructure or models are compromised, conducting forensic investigations on training pipeline attacks and model manipulation attempts. You'll hunt proactively for sophisticated threats across GPU clusters and training infrastructure by analyzing model outputs for signs of compromise, reproducing AI-specific vulnerabilities, and identifying visibility gaps before adversaries exploit them.
You'll build detection-as-code frameworks with version control and automated deployment, onboard telemetry from AI training infrastructure and inference endpoints, and create dashboards tracking model security metrics, GPU utilization patterns, and access to sensitive research data. As the operational security partner for all teams, you'll translate AI Security's threat research into production detections, monitor GPU clusters for threats, detect customer-impacting incidents, and enable responsible AI development through security guardrails.
The role includes a 24/7 on-call rotation for critical AI security incidents. You'll report to the head of security operations and can be based in San Francisco or Seattle.
