# Senior Software  Engineer - Application Security

**Emergent Labs ** · Bangalore

Apply: https://job-boards.greenhouse.io/emergentlabsinc/jobs/4410842009

## About the role

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
