Own a scoped security engineering project, from understanding the problem and exploring approaches to building, testing, and documenting the solution, with guidance from a senior engineer. Develop tools and automation that help engineers find security weaknesses, investigate findings, or prioritize risks. Conduct security research and analyze results to understand potential weaknesses and distinguish actionable findings from false positives. Use AI-assisted coding and research tools while validating their outputs. Depending on the project, build AI-assisted security capabilities or investigate risks in AI-enabled systems. Collaborate with security and software engineers through design discussions, code reviews, and regular feedback. Demonstrate your solution, explain its results and limitations, and prepare it for others to use and maintain.
