Overview

Viettel Cyber Security (VCS) is a leading cybersecurity company specializing in protecting digital infrastructure globally through in-depth research and analysis of security solutions. With 100% self-developed technology, VCS provides an advanced cybersecurity solution ecosystem, protecting governments, financial institutions, large enterprises, and SMEs from increasingly sophisticated threats in the digital age.

VCS has received international recognition, including the Pwn2Own Championship 2023 & 2024, consistently ranking in the Top 5 globally, discovering over 400 zero-day vulnerabilities, and numerous prestigious awards, most notably the Gold Award – Best Cybersecurity Company in Asia.

We are looking for one Experienced-level and one Senior-level candidate to join the project; the requirements and job descriptions for each level are outlined below.

Responsibilities

As an Experienced AI Engineer (AI Agent), you will take ownership of building reliable AI agents for assigned use cases, with a focus on basic evaluation, monitoring, and production quality.

• Develop AI Agents for Product Use Cases
• Develop AI agents for use cases such as conversational Q&A, data retrieval (text-to-SQL / Data Platform querying), compliance review, data analysis, and insight generation — as well as new use cases emerging along the product roadmap.
• Build and optimize RAG pipelines, including chunking, embedding, vector search, reranking, and citation-based responses to ground agents in internal data and documentation and reduce hallucinations.
• Apply prompt engineering, function/tool calling, and structured output; integrate LLMs with APIs, databases, and internal tools, with MCP (Model Context Protocol) as a preferred standard.
• Test and validate AI agent accuracy, continuously optimize agent performance, and ensure safe operation in production environments.
• Production Deployment & Quality Assurance
  
  

Implement basic evaluation (eval), monitoring, and tracing for AI agents; apply existing guardrails such as out-of-scope query handling and authorization enforcement, while optimizing token usage and latency according to product requirements.

Translate business requirements into AI agent workflows with clear error handling and fallback mechanisms; collaborate with Analytics, Backend/Data, and Product teams to bring AI capabilities into production.

——————

As a Senior AI Engineer (AI Agent), you will design AI agent systems that maximize the value of a unified and interconnected data platform. You will define technical standards for multi-agent systems, semantic layers, and release-gating evaluation, ensuring that the platform is reliable, secure, and scalable for sensitive cybersecurity data.

As use cases continuously expand with user needs and the product roadmap, you will design a general-purpose and reusable agent platform — including shared tools/MCP, semantic layers, and evaluation frameworks — that enables rapid development of new use cases while maintaining quality. You will also provide technical leadership and mentorship to the AI engineering team.

• AI Agent Architecture & System Development
• Design end-to-end AI agent architectures for use cases such as conversational Q&A, Data Platform querying (text-to-SQL / semantic layer), compliance review, data analysis, and new use cases driven by the product roadmap.
• Design multi-agent workflows with agent handoffs, fallback mechanisms, and human-in-the-loop controls for irreversible or high-impact actions.
• Build a semantic layer with consistent definitions of metrics, entities, and data lineage to improve agent reasoning and query generation across the unified data platform; standardize reusable tools/MCP services across the platform.
• Build and evolve production-grade RAG systems, including hybrid search, reranking, retrieval quality optimization, and citation-based responses; establish data-driven mechanisms for continuously measuring and improving retrieval quality.
• Quality, Reliability & Security
• Build an evaluation framework that gates deployment, including golden datasets, model-graded evaluation, and regression suites integrated into CI pipelines; establish end-to-end observability and tracing.
• Optimize LLM usage, latency, and cost; design monitoring and usage-management mechanisms across AI agents.
• Design AI agents with protection against prompt injection, data leakage, unauthorized access, and other AI-specific security risks.
• Make architectural decisions around scalability and maintainability; evaluate and select technologies aligned with the system architecture and product requirements.
• Technical Leadership & Collaboration
• Provide technical leadership through mentoring Middle/Junior engineers, conducting code reviews, and collaborating with Product, Data, and DevOps teams to improve the team's engineering capabilities and delivery efficiency.
