Security Engineer - Applied AI
Meta, Menlo Park, California
The role
Meta is seeking Security Engineers to join our Applied Artificial Intelligence (AAI) organization. As a Security Engineer in AAI, you will apply deep domain expertise to solve hard, real-world security problems, building novel security capabilities, prototyping AI-powered defenses, and advancing the frontier of what AI systems can do in Security, Trust, and Safety. Your work is AI-augmented from day one: you leverage AI tools and agents to accelerate your impact, and where the models fall short, your expertise directly drives their improvement.
You will blend hands-on security engineering with applied research: designing and executing novel approaches to security challenges that push both the state of Meta's security posture and the state of the art in AI-driven security. This includes building security products and tools, conducting original adversary research, developing detection and response capabilities, and translating security expertise into scalable, AI-native systems.
