Senior Software Engineer, Anti-Abuse & Security

The Anti-Abuse team is the front line defending Replit's platform from exploitation. We detect and shut down phishing deployments, prevent cryptomining on free-tier infrastructure, stop LLM token farming, and keep bad actors from weaponizing the platform against our users. This is adversarial work: attackers adapt constantly, and we build the detection systems, heuristics, and automated responses that stay ahead of them. What makes this role unique is the AI-native nature of Replit's platform. You'll work on problems that barely exist elsewhere: building guardrails for AI-generated code, detecting prompt injection attacks at scale, and using LLMs as a defensive tool against abuse. If you want hands-on experience applying AI to security problems, this is one of the few places you can do it in production with real attackers. You'll own problems end-to-end, from identifying emerging abuse patterns to shipping the systems that stop them at scale.
