About Delinea:
Delinea is the identity security platform that continuously controls what AI agents, humans and machines can do and for how long. It extends privileged access management from the point of access to the moment of action, using just-in-time authorization to reduce standing privilege across on-premises, multi-cloud and short-lived infrastructure, without adding friction for legitimate users. Delinea provides visibility across every identity type, scores the risk each one carries, and preserves the context behind access decisions, making them auditable and defensible. It supports both static and ephemeral access, letting teams apply Zero Standing Privilege where risk demands it without replacing existing infrastructure.
Hybrid position in MEXICO CITY
Securing AI comes down to controlling what AI agents can do at the moment they act, and the gateway is where that control happens. In this role you will add new AI security features to our access proxy product and help carry that capability into the Delinea Platform, first by connecting that product to the platform and proving the experience with real customers, then by moving those features natively into the platform without disrupting the customers already using them. This role will report directly into our Director of Engineering, Securing AI.
Build new AI security features into our access proxy product, the point where agent and user traffic is inspected and controlled.
Treat protocols such as Model Context Protocol (MCP) as enforcement boundaries, and build controls for agent-to-agent communication.
Connect that product to the Delinea Platform and prove the experience with design and paying customers on live capability.
Move those features into the Delinea Platform as the product matures, keeping customers running smoothly throughout the transition.
Enforce just-in-time access and policy decisions in the request path, drawing on the platform's identity and authorization building blocks.
Partner with product and with the teams building the platform's proxy and access engine.
Typically 8 or more years building production backend or networking systems.
Hands-on experience with proxies, gateways, API gateways, or other systems that sit in the request path and inspect or control traffic.
Strong skills in a modern backend language such as Go, C#, Java, or Rust.
Experience evolving a product across releases, including moving capabilities between systems without disrupting customers.
Ability to work complex problems with limited direction and make sound design trade-offs.
Experience with secure access technologies such as privileged access management, zero trust network access, or SSH, RDP, and database proxying.
Familiarity with AI agents, Model Context Protocol, or LLM traffic.
Background in security or identity.
