The posting

Emergent builds autonomous coding agents that replace traditional software development by generating, testing, and deploying production applications directly from plain-language intent. Our systems run in production at global scale and are used to build millions of real applications.

Since our public launch, we've crossed $130M in ARR and grown to over 10M users across 190+ countries, who have built 12M+ applications on Emergent. We're backed by Creaegis, Claypond, Sentinel Global, Khosla Ventures, SoftBank, Google, Lightspeed, Prosus, Together, and Y Combinator.

We're solving the hard part of AI-driven software creation: correctness, reliability, security, and scale in real production systems. The team is built by repeat founders, Olympiad medalists, IIT & IIM alumni, and leaders from Google, Amazon, and Dropbox.

We're hiring builders who want ownership, speed, and impact at global scale.

The Role: Emergent runs a massive, multi-tenant, AI-driven execution environment where code is generated and executed continuously. You will secure the infrastructure that powers autonomous software creation.

What You'll Do:

What You’ll Do

Secure AI-generated applications at scale

  • Define security patterns for applications generated by AI agents
  • Enforce guardrails across auth, data access, APIs, and business logic
  • Build frameworks to ensure secure-by-default app generation

Design “secure generation” systems

  • Work directly with AI/agent pipelines to prevent insecure code from being produced
  • Build validation layers for generated code (static + semantic)
  • Detect prompt injection and adversarial input patterns

Own application threat modeling

  • Identify vulnerabilities in dynamic app creation flows
  • Analyze risks in multi-tenant user-generated environments
  • Build reusable threat models for agent-driven systems

Build developer-facing security primitives

  • Auth systems, permission frameworks, secure SDKs
  • Secure API gateways and rate limiting
  • Input/output validation layers for LLM-driven flows

Red team AI-generated apps

  • Break applications generated by Emergent agents
  • Identify systemic weaknesses vs one-off bugs
  • Feed learnings back into generation systems

What We’re Looking For

  • 5–10+ years in Application Security
  • Strong coding ability (Python, JS/TS, backend systems)
  • Deep understanding of:
  • OWASP Top 10
  • Auth & session management
  • API security
  • Injection & sandbox escape vectors
  • Experience working closely with product/engineering teams

What Sets You Apart

  • You think in systems, not vulnerabilities
  • You want to prevent insecure code from ever existing
  • Experience with:
  • AI/LLM systems
  • Prompt injection & output validation
  • Secure code generation systems

Why Emergent

  • Build security for AI systems that build software
  • Operate at global scale (millions of apps, millions of users)
  • Work directly with founders and core engineering
  • Solve problems that don’t exist anywhere else yet

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
