Summary
The Cyber Defense AI & Automation team are seeking a Cybersecurity AI Engineer to design and implement AI-driven automation that transforms how we defend the enterprise. This role focuses on building security-aware AI agents and automated workflows that integrate across cloud, identity, endpoint, and network security platforms. You will use Azure Data Explorer (ADX) as the central telemetry layer to power AI reasoning and safe, autonomous security outcomes.
You will partner closely with data scientists, platform engineers, and automation developers to convert raw telemetry into decision-ready insights, and to engineer scalable, explainable AI systems with enforcement guardrails.
Responsibilities
- Design and deploy AI agents in Azure AI Foundry and Copilot Studio, backed by ADX telemetry.
- Build and operationalize security automations using Logic Apps, APIs, and cloud-native integrations.
- Translate ADX telemetry into enriched case packages that drive AI reasoning and decision-making.
- Develop analyst-facing experiences (Teams cards, Copilot interactions) with confidence scoring and clear rationale.
- Integrate AI-driven outputs with security control platforms for automated enforcement across cloud, identity, endpoint, and network.
- Implement guardrails including kill switches, dry-run modes, and time-limited actions.
- Ensure observability with audit logs, dashboards, and feedback loops.
- Collaborate across cybersecurity domains to embed AI and automation into enterprise defense.
