    Job description

    Summary

    You will become part of the AI and Automated Detection sub-division in Bratislava. Backed by a major AI investment program across the company, we build systems that defend against real-world cyber threats at scale, from automated threat detection processing terabytes of behavioral data, to multi-agent AI systems that help security analysts work faster, to SOAR platforms that automate incident response.

    Job description

    Our work spans distributed backend services, machine learning pipelines, LLM-powered agents, and production security tooling.

    As a Python Software Engineer on the AI Security Platform, you build the backend systems that power AI-driven threat detection, automated incident response, and LLM-based security tooling. You will join one of three teams based on your interests and our needs, each tackling a different part of the security stack.

    Detection Systems: automated threat detection pipelines, detection engine integrations, and high-volume data processing.

    LiveAI: multi-agent AI systems, LLM-powered assistants, agent orchestration, and evaluation infrastructure.

    SOAR Platform: microservice ecosystem for incident handling, automation workflows, and AI-powered Security Operations Center capabilities.

    • Take ownership of services across their full lifecycle, from design and deployment to monitoring and troubleshooting.

    • Write clean, maintainable, and production-ready code.

    • Collaborate with software engineers, security researchers, and security operators across the division.

    Essential Requirements

    • Experience with Docker and Kubernetes.

    • Experience with Kafka, Celery, or similar messaging and task-queue technologies.

    • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure).

    • Knowledge of multi-agent systems, LLM-based tooling, or prompt engineering.

    • Previous experience in cybersecurity, threat detection, or high-volume data processing.
