AI Developer

We are the Product Security team, responsible for the security, reliability, and trust of Raiffeisen Bank’s digital ecosystem.
Our mission is to embed security at every stage of the software development lifecycle and continuously strengthen the resilience of our services.

We are looking for an AI Engineer (Security) — a specialist who combines strong software engineering experience, hands-on expertise with LLMs and AI tools, and a desire to apply these skills within the cybersecurity domain.

In this role, you will design AI-driven solutions to automate security team processes, assess the security of AI systems implemented across business and IT, and help colleagues integrate AI into their daily workflows.

Your future responsibilities:

In this role, you will be responsible for designing and implementing AI solutions for security teams. You will build LLM agents, RAG systems, AI pipelines, and integrations using modern tools.

At the same time, you will implement a Shift-Left AI Security approach — embedding AI security checks early in the development lifecycle by integrating them into CI/CD pipelines and SSDLC processes. This includes:

• Analyzing AI-specific threats
• Managing Shadow AI risks
• Helping Security team to build tools for conducting security reviews of AI products before they go into production
• Defining architectural standards for AI security tooling across the organization
• Mentoring engineering teams on secure AI integration patterns and best practices
• Leading technical decision-making for AI security infrastructure choices

If you are passionate about combining artificial intelligence and cybersecurity in a complex, technology-driven financial environment — this role is for you.

Your skills and experience:

• 5+ years of software development experience
• Strong proficiency in Python and other programming languages for building automation, scripts, and integrations
• Hands-on experience with LLMs: prompt engineering, building chains/agents, working with model APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic)
• Experience with LLM frameworks
• Practical use of AI assistants in development (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor or similar)
• Understanding of RAG architectures: vector databases, embedding models, chunking strategies
• Knowledge of OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications
• Ability to rapidly prototype — from idea to working PoC in days, not months
• Experience influencing technical direction across multiple teams or projects
• Track record of knowledge transfer — documentation, workshops, or internal enablement

Will be a plus:

• Experience with model fine-tuning
• Knowledge of Cloud AI services: Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, GCP Vertex AI
• Basic understanding of information security processes (SOC, Incident Response, AppSec, GRC)
• Familiarity with NIST AI RMF, EU AI Act, or other AI regulations
• Experience building multi-agent systems
• AI or Cloud certifications

Personal Qualities:

• Practitioner mindset — not just understanding LLMs, but having built real solutions
• Self-sufficiency — ability to take ownership from problem to solution without micromanagement
• Strong communication skills — able to explain complex topics in simple terms to non-AI teams
• Curiosity and adaptability in a fast-evolving AI landscape
• Focus on delivering measurable business value
• Ability to lead by expertise — guiding teams without formal authority
