AI Security Engineer - Taiwan

The role

AI is becoming the fastest-moving attack surface in the enterprise. Copilot, ChatGPT Enterprise, Gemini, Claude, and a growing wave of agentic tools are being connected to corporate SaaS applications faster than many security teams can evaluate them. These systems introduce broad OAuth scopes, opaque data flows, sensitive data exposure, and non-human identities that can act on behalf of employees.

Obsidian Security sits directly in the path of this shift.

As an AI Security Engineer in Taiwan, you will help define how Obsidian discovers, understands, and mitigates risks across AI and agentic platforms. You will research emerging threats, develop security and data models, and build highly available products that protect enterprise customers.

What you will do

What You’ll Do

Develop deep expertise in how enterprise AI platforms—including ChatGPT Enterprise, Microsoft Copilot, Gemini, Claude, Glean, and agentic frameworks—authenticate, access data, request permissions, and interact with corporate SaaS applications.
Research emerging AI security threats, including prompt injection, tool and agent misuse, RAG poisoning, insecure plugins, excessive agency, data leakage, over-permissioned integrations, and compromised non-human identities.
Develop threat models for AI applications, agents, models, integrations, identities, permissions, tools, and data flows.
Design data models that represent AI assets, identities, access relationships, permissions, activities, risks, and attack paths.
Prototype and deliver production-grade AI security products and capabilities.
Build backend services and APIs for AI asset discovery, security analysis, risk assessment, detection, investigation, and remediation.
Build scalable pipelines that ingest, normalize, enrich, correlate, and analyze high-volume security telemetry.
Write queries and analysis logic that transform raw activity and configuration data into actionable security findings.
Develop detection rules and behavioral models for suspicious AI and agentic activity.
Evaluate APIs, audit logs, authentication mechanisms, OAuth permissions, and security controls provided by AI platforms.
Work with Product Management and customers to understand emerging use cases and turn ambiguous security problems into practical product capabilities.
Partner with Detection Engineering and Security Research to validate threat hypotheses and improve detection coverage.
Collaborate with platform and SRE teams to ensure services are secure, observable, highly available, and operationally efficient.
Improve engineering productivity, pipeline performance, development velocity, and cloud cost efficiency.
Contribute to technical designs, code reviews, testing strategies, operational readiness, and engineering standards.
