Senior Staff AI Security Lead

IonQ•Anywhere•Full-time
View Job
Compensation$180K - 250K a year

Design enterprise AI infrastructure for security operations, build adoption of AI tools across security teams, set technical standards, and lead change through influence. | Requires 8+ years in security or platform engineering, substantial hands-on software development, production-level LLM experience, strong Python and cloud skills, and expertise in AI security risks and mitigations. | About IonQ: IonQ, Inc. [NYSE: IONQ] is the world’s leading quantum platform and merchant supplier - delivering integrated quantum solutions across computing, networking, sensing, and security. IonQ’s newest generation of quantum computers, the IonQ Tempo, is the latest in a line of cutting-edge systems that have been helping customers and partners including Amazon Web Services, and AstraZeneca achieve 20x performance results and accelerate innovation in drug discovery, materials science, financial modeling, logistics, cybersecurity, and defense. In 2025, the company achieved 99.99% two-qubit gate fidelity, setting a world record in quantum computing performance. Headquartered in College Park, Maryland, IonQ has operations in California, Colorado, Massachusetts, Tennessee, Washington, Italy, South Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, Canada, and the United Kingdom. Our quantum computing services are available through all major cloud providers, while we also meet the needs of networking and sensing customers across land, sea, air, and space. IonQ is making quantum platforms more accessible and impactful than ever before. Location: This role can work onsite or hybrid from one of our offices. We are open to a fully remote option for the right candidate. Travel: Up to 10% Job ID: 1915 The Role: We are hiring a senior technical leader to build the AI foundation our security organization runs on — and to make sure it actually gets used. This is a dual-mandate role. You will stand up the enterprise AI infrastructure that lets security teams safely build with large language models and agents, and you will lead the adoption effort that turns that infrastructure into measurable gains across detection and response, threat intelligence, vulnerability management, GRC, and security engineering. This is a hands-on senior individual contributor role. You will write code, design systems, and set technical direction. You will not manage a team, but you will lead through influence: partnering with engineering leaders, coaching analysts and engineers, and building the coalitions that make org-wide change stick. Expect roughly an even split between platform building and enablement work. You will report to the security leadership team and work closely with Platform Engineering, IT, Legal, Privacy, and the broader AI/ML organization. Responsibilities: Stand Up the Enterprise AI Infrastructure Build the platform. Design and build the shared platform security teams use to develop AI applications — model gateway and routing, authentication and authorization, secrets handling, rate limiting, cost attribution, and audit logging. Enable agentic systems. Establish patterns and reusable components for agentic workflows: tool and MCP server integration, sandboxed execution, human-in-the-loop approval gates, and least-privilege scoping for agent credentials. Wire in the data. Connect security's knowledge — runbooks, detection logic, past incidents, asset inventory, policy documents — to AI systems through well-governed retrieval pipelines with correct access controls and data classification enforcement. Make it measurable. Build the evaluation harness, regression suites, and observability that tell us whether an AI system is working: output quality, latency, cost, hallucination rate, and drift over time. Nothing ships to production without a baseline. Secure the stack itself. Implement guardrails against prompt injection, data exfiltration through model outputs, insecure tool use, and supply-chain risk in models and AI dependencies. Red-team the platform and the applications built on it. Set the standards. Own the reference architecture, golden paths, and internal documentation so that a security engineer can go from idea to reviewed prototype in days rather than months. Drive AI Adoption Across the Security Organization Find the real use cases. Work directly with detection engineering, IR, threat intel, vulnerability management, GRC, and security operations to identify where AI meaningfully reduces toil or improves quality — and where it does not. Kill weak ideas early. Build the flagship applications. Deliver a small number of high-visibility wins yourself. Nothing drives adoption like a working tool that saves an analyst two hours a day. Teach the organization. Run enablement programs — office hours, workshops, internal documentation, prompt and agent design patterns, brown-bags — that raise the AI fluency of the entire security organization, not just the engineers. Measure adoption honestly. Define and report the metrics that show whether adoption is real: active users, workflows automated, analyst hours returned, time-to-detect and time-to-respond improvements, quality deltas against human baselines. Establish governance that enables. Partner with Legal, Privacy, and Compliance to establish the acceptable-use policy, review process, and risk framework for AI in security workflows — designed to unblock teams rather than stall them. Stay ahead of the field. Maintain the organization's point of view on where AI capability is heading and what it means for our security roadmap, staffing, and threat model. Evaluate vendors and open models on the merits. Requirements: 8+ years in security engineering, platform engineering, or a closely related technical field, including significant hands-on software development. Demonstrated experience building and operating production systems with large language models — not prototypes or demos. You have shipped something real, dealt with its failure modes, and iterated on it. Strong software engineering fundamentals and fluency in Python (or an equivalent language), including API design, distributed systems, and cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure). Deep understanding of security engineering: identity and access management, secrets management, network boundaries, logging and detection, and secure software development practices. Working knowledge of AI-specific risk — prompt injection, jailbreaks, data leakage through model outputs, insecure agent tool use, model and dependency supply chain — and practical mitigations for each. A track record of driving technical change across an organization through influence rather than authority: building consensus, teaching, and shipping things people voluntarily adopt. Clear written and verbal communication. You can explain a system design to an engineer and the business case for it to an executive, in the same week. Sound judgment about where AI is genuinely useful and where it is not. We want an advocate who is also a skeptic. Preferred Qualifications: Experience with agent frameworks, orchestration, and the Model Context Protocol (MCP) or comparable tool-use standards. Experience building evaluation frameworks or LLM observability tooling. Background in security operations, detection engineering, or incident response — you have felt the toil firsthand. Experience with retrieval systems, embeddings, vector databases, and knowledge pipeline design. Familiarity with AI governance and assurance frameworks such as the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, ISO/IEC 42001, or the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications. Experience fine-tuning or evaluating open-weight models for domain-specific tasks. Prior experience as a first or founding hire on a platform or capability that later scaled organization-wide. What Success Looks Like First 90 Days You have mapped the current state — what security teams are already doing with AI, sanctioned or not — and published a prioritized assessment of gaps, risks, and opportunities. A minimum viable AI platform is running: gateway, authentication, logging, and cost attribution, with at least one security team building on it. An acceptable-use policy and lightweight review process for AI in security workflows is drafted and socialized. First 6 Months Two or more production AI applications are in daily use by security teams, with measured impact. The evaluation and observability layer is in place; no AI system reaches production without a quality baseline and monitoring. Enablement is operating on a regular cadence, and engineers outside your immediate orbit are shipping their own AI-assisted workflows on the golden paths you built. First Year AI is a normal part of how the security organization works, with adoption and impact reported through metrics leadership trusts. The platform supports agentic workflows safely, with guardrails that have been tested adversarially. The role has clearly outgrown one person, and you have made the case for what the team around it should look like. Why This Role Security organizations are drowning in work that AI is genuinely good at, and most of them are still stuck at the pilot stage because nobody owns both halves of the problem — the infrastructure and the adoption. This role owns both. You will have executive sponsorship, real budget, and the latitude to set technical direction from a blank page. If you want to define how an entire security organization works with AI rather than tune someone else's system, this is that job. The total compensation package includes base, bonus, equity, and a range of benefit options found on our career site. If this role has a commission structure, the compensation range below just reflects the base compensation range.

Senior Software Engineer - Test Infrastructure

IonQ•College Park, Maryland, Bothell, Washington•Full-time
View Job
Compensation$80K - 140K a year

Own end-to-end integration testing and CI infrastructure for quantum computing software. | 5+ years in test infrastructure or software test automation, Python programming, CI/CD experience, bachelor's degree. | About IonQ: IonQ, Inc. [NYSE: IONQ] is the world’s leading quantum platform and merchant supplier - delivering integrated quantum solutions across computing, networking, sensing, and security. IonQ’s newest generation of quantum computers, the IonQ Tempo, is the latest in a line of cutting-edge systems that have been helping customers and partners including Amazon Web Services, and AstraZeneca achieve 20x performance results and accelerate innovation in drug discovery, materials science, financial modeling, logistics, cybersecurity, and defense. In 2025, the company achieved 99.99% two-qubit gate fidelity, setting a world record in quantum computing performance. Headquartered in College Park, Maryland, IonQ has operations in California, Colorado, Massachusetts, Tennessee, Washington, Italy, South Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, Canada, and the United Kingdom. Our quantum computing services are available through all major cloud providers, while we also meet the needs of networking and sensing customers across land, sea, air, and space. IonQ is making quantum platforms more accessible and impactful than ever before. Location: This role is based out of our College Park, Boulder, CO, or Bothell, WA offices. We offer a hybrid work model, allowing for remote work a few days per week. Travel: Up to 10%, domestic or international. Job ID: 1791 The Role: We are looking for a Software Engineer - Test Infrastructure to join our Release Engineering team. You'll be part of a cross-functional team whose mission is to lead IonQ on its journey to build the world's best quantum computers to solve the world's most complex problems. In this role, you will own the quality signal for the integrated software that runs IonQ’s quantum computers. You will design and operate the automated testing that validates complete systems — from customer-scale circuit execution to the tools used to operate and calibrate the machines — on shared test environments that are themselves real quantum computing systems. You will build the CI infrastructure that catches integration problems early, set system-level test strategy, and manage the test system fleet that makes all of this possible, partnering daily with software, hardware, and physics teams. The ideal candidate is a curious, collaborative engineer who is drawn to hardware-software integration testing, thinks in terms of coverage and infrastructure rather than individual test cases, and is comfortable defining the right test signal for first-of-their-kind systems. Responsibilities: Own end-to-end integration testing of our system software: design, develop, and maintain the automated test suites that validate complete quantum computing systems on shared test environments, including circuit execution under realistic customer workloads. Extend automated test coverage of operator-facing tooling and workflows, exercising the interfaces engineers and physicists use to operate and calibrate systems. Design, build, and operate the CI infrastructure that catches integration bugs before software is deployed onto systems, in partnership with software development teams — and keep it fast, reliable, and trusted. Define and evolve system-level test strategy: identify coverage gaps beyond functional job execution and build the tests and instrumentation to close them, including performance characterization and electronics-control validation where appropriate. Own integration-test triage and reporting: drive failures to root cause, attribute regressions to the responsible component, and deliver specific, actionable feedback to owning teams. Manage the lifecycle of the test system fleet across IonQ product lines: establish consistent hardware and software baselines across instances, coordinate upgrades and decommissioning with the product teams that define their requirements, and maintain an authoritative record of each system’s configuration and fitness for purpose. Champion testability across component teams, promoting the interfaces, test hooks, and practices that make our system software easier to validate. Requirements: 5+ years of professional experience in test infrastructure, software test automation, CI engineering, or a closely related field, or an equivalent combination of education and experience. Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience. Strong programming skills in Python or another general-purpose language, with experience creating test frameworks and automation tooling, not just using them. Hands-on background designing, operating, and scaling CI/CD systems that engineering teams depend on. Experience implementing system-level integration tests for complex, multi-component systems. Experience with hardware-in-the-loop or lab-based test environments, or demonstrated aptitude for working close to physical hardware. Excellent debugging skills, particularly across the boundary between software and hardware. Strong collaboration skills; this role works closely with engineers on multiple product teams. Preferred Qualifications: Experience with performance testing methodology and workload characterization. Experience instrumenting and validating electronic control systems (e.g., capturing and asserting on signal output via oscilloscope or equivalent instrumentation). Experience managing test health at scale — flaky-test management, test observability, or quality metrics and dashboards. Familiarity with containerization and infrastructure-as-code for building reproducible test environments. Background in scientific or research computing environments. The total compensation package includes base, bonus, equity, and a range of benefit options found on our career site. If this role has a commission structure, the compensation range below just reflects the base compensation range. Wage Transparency: $145,920—$209,241 USD Compensation will vary based on individual factors such as education, qualifications, and experience of the final candidate(s), specific office location, and calibration against relevant market data and internal team equity. Posted base salary figures are subject to change as new market data becomes available. Our benefits include comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans, matching 401(k), unlimited PTO and paid holidays, parental/adoption leave, legal insurance, and a home technology stipend. Details of participation in these benefit plans will be provided when a candidate receives an offer of employment. At IonQ, we believe in fair treatment, access, opportunity, and advancement for all while striving to identify and eliminate barriers. We empower employees to thrive by fostering a culture of autonomy, productivity, and respect. We are dedicated to creating an environment where individuals can feel welcomed, respected, supported, and valued. We are committed to equity and justice.
