Role overview

You will be a critical member of the product delivery team, laying the groundwork for secure Generative AI adoption in the enterprise. You'll design curated datasets, build detection models for sensitive data, and iterate based on real-world customer feedback to ensure teams can use AI tools safely and confidently.

Harmonic Security provides an AI Governance and Control (AIGC) platform that enables enterprises to adopt AI tools safely without risking data security and privacy. The company offers a 'zero-touch' data protection platform utilizing pre-trained, specialized large language models to detect sensitive data with high accuracy. Key offerings include Harmonic Protect, a data protection platform for secure AI adoption, and MCP Gateway, a developer-friendly gateway providing visibility and control over agentic AI ecosystems. The platform addresses 'Shadow AI' by offering continuous monitoring of unapproved AI tools, assessing associated risks, and allowing security teams to manage access and block sensitive content from being uploaded. Harmonic employs an end-user 'nudging' approach to guide safe AI usage alongside traditional security enforcement.

What you will do

  • Design and curate comprehensive datasets tailored for training and fine-tuning sensitive data detection models.
  • Develop, validate, and ship production-ready NLP models that categorize and protect enterprise data at scale.
  • Drive continuous model improvement by analyzing performance dashboards and incorporating direct feedback from customer interactions.

Who this is a fit for

  • Proven track record of shipping production-grade models and managing high-quality datasets within a live SaaS product environment.
  • Expert-level Python skills with deep knowledge of NLP techniques, classification approaches, and data categorization taxonomies.
  • A product-driven mindset that prioritizes incremental delivery and thrives in a fast-paced, innovative startup atmosphere.

Why this role is remarkable

  • Work at the forefront of AI security with a team led by cybersecurity experts and backed by top-tier investors like Ten Eleven Ventures and In-Q-Tel.
  • Direct impact on a category-defining product that enables safe enterprise adoption of LLMs by protecting sensitive data in real-time.
  • Join an AI-first culture where you are encouraged to use and build with the latest tools like Claude Code and Cursor to automate workflows.
