About the role

Security Engineer role at Nooks.ai focusing on securing an AI-native platform, including securing AI agents, threat modeling, and building security processes in a fast-growing startup.

Responsibilities

  • Own security reviews and threat modeling for new and existing product surfaces.
  • Build and improve core security processes (secure SDLC, detection & response).
  • Harden our cloud and application infrastructure and drive remediation of high-priority risks.
  • Help define how we secure AI agents and govern their use — guardrails, data exposure, prompt-injection and abuse risks.

  • Partner closely with product and infra engineering to embed security into how we ship.

Qualifications

  • 3+ years of hands-on information security experience.
  • Experience at a startup or early-stage company; comfort with ambiguity, autonomy, and high ownership.

  • Clear communication and a collaborative, low-ego style.
