We foster a culture of passion, curiosity, and courage—empowering you to innovate, grow, and help shape the future of a Fortune 100 company.

Trust. Service. Security.

We are seeking an experienced and results-oriented Cybersecurity Engineer to join the Identity Access and Lifecycle Management team. This role will help ensure first-line defense cybersecurity operational goals are met by partnering with cross-functional teams, engineering automation, and building AI-enabled agents that can support self-auditing of controls. The ideal candidate will bring a strong foundation in control management, data-driven control testing, automation engineering, stakeholder engagement, and AI-enabled solution design and delivery—sitting at the intersection of risk, controls, software engineering, and process automation in a fast-paced, matrixed environment.

Responsibilities

Engineering, Agent Development & Automated Metrics

  • Design, build, and enhance automated metrics that strengthen control effectiveness and enable continuous control monitoring.
  • Develop, configure, test, and maintain AI-enabled agents and automation workflows that can evaluate control evidence, identify exceptions, surface control gaps, recommend remediation actions, and support scalable self-auditing capabilities.
  • Partner with data, engineering, and technology teams to source, validate, and transform data used in automated control testing and agent-driven analysis.
  • Define and track KPIs/KRIs such as control performance trends, exception volumes, agent findings, remediation timeliness, and self-audit coverage.

Data Engineering, Insights & Reporting

  • Analyze control testing outputs, cybersecurity telemetry, and agent-generated findings to identify trends, anomalies, emerging risks, and opportunities for control improvement.
  • Engineer dashboards, reports, and data products that provide clear visibility into control health, self-audit results, exception patterns, and operational risk posture.
  • Translate technical findings into concise, risk-informed insights and recommendations for control owners, engineering partners, and leadership stakeholders.

Continuous Improvement, Control Automation & Agentic AI

  • Identify opportunities to enhance documentation quality, data integrity, and control standardization in accordance with the RCSA framework.
  • Support the enhancement of metrics frameworks, automated testing logic, and reporting capabilities to increase repeatability and reduce manual effort.
  • Partner with engineering and tooling teams to scale automated testing, monitoring, and agent-enabled self-audit solutions across controls.
  • Contribute to automation and efficiency initiatives related to control documentation review, monitoring, metric design, evidence validation, and exception identification.
  • Apply AI-enabled security tooling and automation capabilities to improve control observability, evidence review, investigation efficiency, and operational risk visibility.
  • Create and implement secure, governed AI agents and workflows that align with enterprise security standards, risk requirements, control objectives, data protection expectations, and responsible AI practices.
  • Design and refine prompts, rules, workflows, orchestration logic, validation criteria, and feedback loops that improve AI agent-enabled cybersecurity engineering activities, including control implementation, self-audit execution, exception triage, remediation tracking, control evidence analysis, and security research.
  • Apply AI-enabled security tooling and automation capabilities to improve threat detection, investigation efficiency, and operational observability across cybersecurity environments.
  • Support the implementation of security controls and monitoring practices for AI-enabled applications and workflows, ensuring alignment with enterprise security standards and risk requirements.

Qualifications

  • 2+ years of experience in cybersecurity, control management, technology risk, audit response, automation engineering, or related disciplines.
  • Experience designing or supporting automated control testing, continuous control monitoring, automated evidence review, or self-audit capabilities.
  • Knowledge of AI security concepts, including risks associated with generative AI, model integrity, prompt security, data protection, and responsible use of AI-enabled workflows.
  • Experience creating or configuring AI agents, automation frameworks, or agentic AI workflows used to enhance monitoring, detection, control validation, evidence analysis, and security engineering outcomes.
  • Ability to design agent workflows that translate control objectives into executable tasks, including evidence collection, test execution, exception identification, result summarization, and escalation routing.
  • Experience designing, building, testing, and governing AI agents or agentic workflows that connect to enterprise data sources, execute control validation tasks, evaluate evidence, identify exceptions, summarize results, and support human-reviewed self-auditing of cybersecurity controls.
  • Strong engineering mindset with the ability to translate control requirements into automated logic, repeatable tests, data pipelines, dashboards, and agent-enabled workflows.
  • Understanding of RCSA control processes, operational risk management concepts, control design, evidence expectations, and audit readiness requirements.
  • Demonstrated ability to recognize opportunities and deliver automation of data metrics, control testing, and self-audit processes to support control effectiveness.
  • Understanding of how AI/ML, NLP, and generative AI can be used to analyze control performance data, detect anomalies, summarize evidence, and identify potential control gaps.
  • Experience using AI tools to assist in metric design, documentation review, evidence validation, exception analysis, workflow automation, and efficiency improvements.
  • Ability to interpret AI-generated outputs, validate accuracy, identify limitations, and apply findings within a risk, control, and governance context.
  • Experience leveraging Python, SQL, APIs, workflow automation, and analytics tools and Excel, PowerPoint to build scalable control monitoring and reporting solutions.
  • Strong proficiency with Amex collaboration platforms such as Confluence, SharePoint, Slack, or Teams.
  • Knowledge of AI security concepts, including risks associated with generative AI, model integrity, prompt security, and protection of sensitive enterprise data.
  • Knowledge of AI-assisted cybersecurity operations and automation frameworks used to enhance detection, response, and security engineering workflows.
