• Conduct vulnerability assessments and penetration testing on AI models and data pipelines.

• Ensure AI data is encrypted, anonymized, and securely stored.

• Implement access controls for sensitive AI data and models (RBAC, ABAC, Zero Trust).

• Protect AI models from tampering, theft, and adversarial manipulation during training and deployment.

• Monitor and log AI system activity for anomalies and security incidents.

• Develop and enforce policies to align AI systems with industry regulations, ethical standards, and organizational governance requirements.

• Develop automated workflows and scripts to enhance security platform functionality and scalability, improving operational efficiency.

• Manage timely patching and upgrades to security tools and systems to reduce downtime and minimize vulnerabilities.

• Configure alerting systems for security threats and enable real-time monitoring for observability.

• Partner with incident response teams to identify, contain, and mitigate security incidents.

• Support root cause analysis to improve security posture and prevent repeat breaches.

• Optimize security tools and platforms for performance and effectiveness while meeting compliance and organizational requirements.

• Maintain documentation for platform configurations, AI services and capabilities, troubleshooting guides, and operational procedures.

You'll have...

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or related field OR a combination of education and experience

• 5+ years of experience in security engineering, platform engineering, and AI/ML, including experience in large, complex environments, such as:

• Managing security platforms and tools in enterprise environments

• Container security (Docker, Kubernetes)

• Networking protocols, firewalls, and network security best practices

• AI/ML concepts, architectures, and AI security challenges

• AI threat areas (adversarial attacks, data poisoning, model inversion, unauthorized access)

• Vulnerability assessment and penetration testing on AI models and data pipelines

• Data protection techniques (encryption, anonymization, secure storage) and secure access management (RBAC, ABAC, Zero Trust)

• Incident response, monitoring tools, and threat intelligence platforms

• Security frameworks and compliance references (SAIF, NIST, FAICP)

• ITSM processes and tools (ServiceNow) and delivery practices/tools (Agile, JIRA)

Even better, you may have...
