We believe that software is the foundation of modern civilization, yet vulnerabilities threaten its integrity, security, and resilience. Strix is on a mission to solve security.
Strix builds autonomous AI penetration testing agents that think like attackers: discovering, validating, and helping fix real vulnerabilities across live applications, codebases, and infrastructure, continuously, not once a year. We are looking for strong technical people who want to work at the intersection of AI, security, and infrastructure.
We're seeking a Forward-Deployed Security Engineer to be the technical bridge between Strix and our customers, running engagements, tuning the platform to each environment, and turning agent findings into fixed vulnerabilities.
Deploy and operate Strix inside customer environments, from kickoff to eye-opening findings
Triage and validate agent-discovered vulnerabilities and communicate impact to security teams
Feed what you learn in the field back into the product and the agents
Become a trusted security advisor to some of the most interesting engineering organizations
3+ years in security engineering, penetration testing, or solutions/security consulting
Strong understanding of application security and common vulnerability classes
Scripting ability (Python, bash) and comfort working across varied customer stacks
Excellent written and verbal communication with technical and executive audiences
A tendency to leave things in a better way than you found them
Competitive salary with meaningful equity
Health, vision, and dental insurance
Office lunch and dinner (when working from our New York office)
