The GenAI Security team within Reddit’s Security, Privacy, Assurance, and Corporate Engineering organization protects Reddit’s GenAI usage across employee tools, internal agents, and production user-facing systems. Our mission is to secure and protect Reddit’s AI traffic and GenAI adoption by default.

We are building zero-trust, defense-in-depth systems that verify identity, permissions, data access, and semantic intent across AI workflows. A core part of this work is developing practical, high-quality ML models that detect and prevent security risks such as prompt injection, jailbreak attempts, sensitive data exfiltration, unsafe model behavior, anomalous usage, and unauthorized agent actions.

We are looking for a Senior Machine Learning Engineer to lead model development for GenAI Security and help establish strong ML practices across SPACE. This role owns the full machine learning lifecycle: problem definition
