Security Engineer, AI-Driven Vulnerability Automation

Meta; Charleston (WV); On-site; USD 184,000 - 257,000; Full time

Job summary

Meta is seeking a Security Engineer to join the Scaling – Vulnerability Management team. You will design ML-powered systems that automate how vulnerabilities are identified, triaged, and remediated across Meta's codebase.

You will build autonomous remediation pipelines and AI agents that cut through noise, surface real risk, and patch issues at scale, while strengthening supply‑chain defenses to keep automated upgrades safe.

Qualifications

• Experience securing enterprise-scale infrastructure software and services.
• Strong track record in vulnerability management and security automation.
• Proficiency in Python or similar scripting languages.
• Ability to influence across security, infra, and product teams.

Responsibilities

• Design and build AI-powered autonomous remediation pipelines that detect and patch third‑party library vulnerabilities across Meta's codebase, scaling from thousands to hundreds of thousands of packages.
• Develop ML‑driven triage and contextualization agents (e.g., Viper Assist, FixieAI) that autonomously assess, prioritize, and suppress vulnerability tasks with high precision.
• Architect supply‑chain defense systems, including time‑locked package mirrors, quarantine mechanisms, and package decoration services that enrich dependency metadata for safer automated upgrades.
• Drive cross‑functional strategy across security, infrastructure, and product engineering teams, defining processes that enable multiple teams to operate at scale with automation.
• Identify and solve ambiguous, open‑ended problems where the solution is not initially known — owning technically complex workstreams while enabling others to execute.
