GEICO is seeking a Senior Staff Engineer in AI Security Architecture to design and build the next generation of intelligent cybersecurity automation. This is a hands-on technical role for someone who thinks in systems, codes with discipline, and sees AI as an engineering surface - not a shortcut. You'll operate at the intersection of security architecture, agentic AI development, and developer enablement, helping engineering teams across the enterprise build securely and ship confidently.

What You'll Do

* Design, build, and maintain agentic AI systems - including React loops, tool orchestration, and RAG pipelines - in production-grade Python

* Author and refine complex, domain-rich prompts that encode security architecture knowledge into reliable, repeatable LLM-powered workflows

* Conduct AI-assisted architecture and secure design reviews across enterprise systems, identifying weaknesses early and guiding teams toward paved-road solutions

* Partner with engineering teams as a hands-on security architecture advisor - reviewing designs, accelerating production readiness, and raising the bar on secure-by-default thinking

* Build and maintain integrations with enterprise platforms including Azure AD, Azure Dev Ops, Slack, and internal APIs, with a strong command of the auth and governance landscape that comes with them

* Write infrastructure-as-code and automation tooling using Terraform and/or Ansible to operationalize security controls at scale

* Apply your knowledge of CI/CD pipelines, containerization, and orchestration both as surfaces to secure and as tools to build with

What You Bring

* Strong security architecture background - you can identify automation opportunities before they're on anyone's roadmap, design novel solutions, and guide teams toward secure, scalable patterns

* Hands-on experience building fully agentic AI systems; chatbot wrappers don't count

* Demonstrated ability to write long, complex, domain-rich prompts for production LLM workflows

* Production-grade Python skills and the discipline to keep a codebase clean as it scales

* Deep understanding of AI/ML concepts and how they intersect with security risk and assisted coding workflows

* Experience with Terraform and/or Ansible for infrastructure automation

* Broad hands-on experience with CI/CD, networking, containerization, and orchestration (e.g., Kubernetes, Docker) - both as things you secure and as tools you build with

* Fluency writing API-driven automations and integrating with enterprise platforms

Experience

* 8+ years in software engineering, security engineering, or a hybrid architecture role

* 3+ years of hands-on experience with at least one major cloud provider (Azure preferred)

* Demonstrated experience shipping production AI/ML systems or security automation tooling

* Experience with identity and access patterns, OAuth/OIDC, and enterprise auth integrations

Education

* Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, or equivalent experience
