Senior Security Engineer, Serving Layer and Platform Security, DeepMind

• Evaluate and harden GDM’s core serving infrastructure (Beyond, Agency, AI Studio APIs) and inference pipelines.
• Develop and maintain threat models covering GDM serving layers and inference workloads. Model attack vectors unique to frontier AI, including prompt injection mitigation, tool-calling hardening, multi-tenant data boundary protection, and API surface security.
• Build secure-by-default libraries, reference architectures, and deployment templates that embed infrastructure security into GDM’s deployment pipelines and serving stacks.
• Participate in the team's operational security rotation (on-call).

Minimum qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
• 5 years of experience in security engineering, platform security, infrastructure hardening, network protocols, or systems security architecture.
• 5 years of experience in security operations (e.g., operational security monitoring, incident response, vulnerability triage, rotational on-call duty, or threat hunting).
• 5 years of coding experience in one or more systems programming languages (e.g., C, C++).

Preferred qualifications:

• Experience securing large-scale distributed serving infrastructure, core API development, multi-tenant data architectures, etc.
• Demonstrated experience conducting variant analysis, developing security mitigations, and responding to high-severity infrastructure incidents in a production environment.
• Expertise in workload isolation, Linux kernel security, TPU/GPU architecture security, or hardware-backed root-of-trust models.
• Technical understanding of frontier AI security challenges, including prompt injection containment, secure agentic tool execution, and inference memory safety.
