Who you are
- Comfortable working alongside agentic AI systems in day-to-day security operations — including triaging alerts, reviewing AI-generated findings, and validating autonomous response actions before or after execution
- Basic understanding of how large language models (LLMs) function, including prompt construction, context management, and interpreting model outputs critically rather than accepting them at face value

- Able to recognize when an AI agent's output or behavior is anomalous, incorrect, or requires human escalation — demonstrating sound judgment in human-in-the-loop workflows
- Assist with periodic security audits on current PointClickCare infrastructure, and work with appropriate team(s), such as Security, Corporate Technology, SaaS Operations and other departments to remediate any vulnerabilities found. Participate in security investigations and compliance reviews, as requested by the GRC team
