Join our passionate, global team at Delinea and help us make the world a safer and more secure place. Our success is driven by world-class product leadership, outstanding engineers, and strategic investment from TPG. We value diversity, innovation, and a culture of respect and fairness. If you're ready to push boundaries and challenge the status quo in security, we want to hear from you.
Apply today to help us achieve our mission.
SUMMARY
AI agents are appearing across the enterprise faster than anyone can keep track of them, and you cannot secure what you cannot see. In this role you will build the capabilities that find AI agents wherever they run, across cloud platforms and on endpoints, and assess their security posture so the rest of our AI security platform can govern them. This role will report directly into our Director of Engineering, Securing AI.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Build AI agent discovery on top of Delinea's existing cloud discovery rather than standing up a separate inventory, covering Microsoft Azure today and expanding to AWS and Google Cloud as the platform adds those clouds.
- Build discovery for AI agents running on endpoints, a newer surface for the team.
- Assess the security posture of discovered agents: how they are configured, what they can access, and where they create risk.
- Feed discovered agents and their context into our identity and attribution layer so they can be governed.
- Partner closely with the platform teams whose discovery services your work builds on.
WHAT YOU'LL NEED:
- Typically 8 or more years building production cloud or SaaS backend systems.
- Hands-on experience with cloud provider APIs (Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud) and asset discovery or inventory systems.
- Experience extending or integrating with an existing platform, not only greenfield builds.
- Strong skills in a modern backend language such as C#, Go, Java, or Python.
- Ability to break down complex, ambiguous problems and select sound technical approaches with limited direction.
WE'D LOVE TO SEE:
- Experience with endpoint agent or device management technologies.
- Background in security or posture management such as CSPM or CIEM.
- Familiarity with AI agent frameworks and how agents authenticate and act.
For this Job, Delinea is not considering candidates that need any type of US work authorization now or in the future. This includes, but is not limited to: F1-OPT, F1-CPT, H-1B, TN, L-1, J1, etc.
Why work at Delinea?
- We're passionate problem-solvers helping the world's largest organizations protect what matters most: their human and machine identities.
- We invest in people who are smart, self-motivated, and collaborative.
- What we offer in return is meaningful work, a culture of innovation and great career progression.
At Delinea, our core values are STRONG and guide our behaviors and success:
- Spirited - We bring energy and passion to everything we do
- Trust - We act with integrity and deliver on our commitments
- Respect - We listen, value different perspectives, and work as one team
- Ownership - We take initiative and follow through
- Nimble - We adapt quickly in a fast-changing environment
- Global - We embrace diverse people and ideas to drive better outcomes
We believe weaving these core values into our day-to-day actions, and our process for hiring, evaluating, and promoting employees, helps us cultivate a work environment that embraces collaboration and camaraderie.
We take care of our employees. We offer competitive salaries, a meaningful bonus program, and excellent benefits, including healthcare insurance, as well as pension/retirement matching, comprehensive life insurance, an employee assistance program, time off plans, and paid company holidays.
