PAM engineer
New York City, NY - USA
Job Summary
primarily a traditional PAM (Privileged Access Management) Engineer role with AI experience being a secondary requirement. The core focus is on strong PAM expertise and candidates should be evaluated first and foremost on their hands-on experience with PAM technologies and related security practices.
Candidates should also have a solid understanding of AI and some practical experience applying or leveraging AI within a PAM or cybersecurity environment. However PAM expertise remains the most critical requirement for this role.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead handson development of AIenabled and LLMbased applications including agentic and automationdriven systems.
- Design and implement agent orchestration architectures including task decomposition multiagent coordination tool/function invocation state and memory management and policyaware execution flows.
- Engineer robust LLM interaction layers including prompt design grounding strategies (e.g. RAG) tool integration feedback loops and evaluation mechanisms.
- Own endtoend AI system architecture spanning APIs services data pipelines model serving and observability.
- Ensure AI solutions operate effectively across cloudnative and hybrid environments with attention to scalability latency and reliability.
- Embed security compliance and governancebydesign including access controls logging traceability explainability and humanintheloop safeguards.
- Provide technical leadership through architecture ownership handson coding design reviews and mentorship of AI engineers.
Required Skills:
- Proven experience as a handson AI or platform engineer with leadership responsibility for production systems.
- Deep expertise in LLMs including model selection prompt engineering grounding techniques evaluation and mitigation of hallucination and drift.
- Strong experience with agent frameworks and orchestration patterns including multiagent systems toolusing agents and agent lifecycle management.
- Solid background in cloudnative architecture APIs distributed systems and modern MLOps/LLMOps practices.
- Ability to translate business risk and regulatory requirements into concrete technical designs and implementations.
- Experience translating advanced AI (LLMs agentic workflows orchestration) into secure governed and auditable capabilities that are productionready for large regulated enterprises.
- Experience with real-world deployments scenarios ensuring AI solutions work reliably across hybrid environments integrate with enterprise platforms and deliver measurable business outcomes.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience implementing AI control frameworks (e.g. model controls guardrails evaluation and auditability) aligned to NIST ISO or sector regulators.
- Knowledge of identity access and authorization models for agents and nonhuman identities including leastprivilege and JIT patterns.
