AI Expert Backend Engineer at Wiz, Inc.

At Wiz, we’re reinventing cloud security so organizations can move faster and stay protected. As the fastest-growing software company ever, we already help security teams worldwide scan and secure more than 230 billion files every day, and over 40 percent of the Fortune 100 rely on our platform. Our Wizards come from more than 13 countries, and we’re still early enough that every new teammate can shape what comes next.

What is this role?

We are hiring a Senior AI Expert Backend Engineer to join our Backend Engineering team on a full-time, on-site basis in Israel. The position calls for an experienced engineer who will combine deep backend expertise with strong machine-learning knowledge to advance the next generation of AI-powered security features.

What will you do?

• Take machine-learning models from research to production, delivering AI-driven capabilities inside the Wiz platform.
• Own the full lifecycle of backend components-research, design, development, testing, rollout, and monitoring-while collaborating with Security Research and Product teams.
• Build a variety of AI-enhanced features, from large-language-model tools that improve customer investigations to novel applications of AI for cloud security.

What makes you a great fit?

You bring at least five years of backend engineering experience in a high-level language such as Java, C#, or Golang. You have a solid grasp of modern AI and machine-learning techniques, including LLMs, CNNs, and LSTMs, and you have already shipped high-scale, cloud-native SaaS products built on microservices. Hands-on experience with major cloud platforms-AWS, GCP, or Azure-is essential, and you hold a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field (or the equivalent practical experience). Strong written and spoken English will help you thrive in our collaborative environment.

What’s in it for you?

You’ll work alongside talented engineers from around the world on meaningful problems in a fast-growing market where your ideas can have immediate impact. We value diverse perspectives and encourage applications even if your experience is close but not an exact match.
