Member of Technical Staff, Security Engineer
Magic’s mission is to build safe AGI that accelerates humanity’s progress on the world’s most important problems. We believe the most promising path to safe AGI lies in automating research and code generation to improve models and solve alignment more reliably than humans can alone. Our approach combines frontier-scale pretraining, domain-specific RL, ultra-long context, and inference-time compute to achieve this goal.
About the role:
As a Security Engineer at Magic, you will build the software, automation, and infrastructure that protect our models, systems, and engineering organization from both traditional and frontier AI cyber threats. You will respond to security threats, help us build good practices around security incident/threat response.
The role sits at the intersection of software engineering, infrastructure, and security. You will work closely with researchers, infrastructure engineers, and platform teams to reduce risk while considering the productivity impact. You will help us make the secure path the easy, productive path.
The threat landscape is changing, supply chain attacks are a major concern, prompt injections and other LLM-native attack vectors are worrying. As frontier AI systems become increasingly capable, security is evolving beyond defending infrastructure alone. Modern models can autonomousl
