Position Responsibilities:
- Implement and operate AI Security Posture Management (AI SPM) solutions, including Cloud security posture management to continuously assess, detect, and remediate risks across AI and cloud environments
- Secure AI and Generative AI workloads, including model pipelines, training data, inference APIs, and LLM integrations against threats such as prompt injection, data leakage, model abuse, and adversarial attacks
- Design and implement AI SPM controls to provide visibility into AI assets, monitor model usage and access patterns, enforce security guardrails, and manage AI risks across the full lifecycle
- Embed security into CI/CD and MLOps pipelines (Dev Sec Ops ) using automated controls such as SAST/DAST, IaC scanning, secrets detection, and compliance enforcement gates
- Develop and maintain security policies and policy-as-code frameworks (e.g., Azure Policy) to enforce governance, regulatory compliance, and responsible AI usage
- Engineer monitoring, detection, and response capabilities for cloud and AI systems, integrating telemetry with SIEM/SOAR platforms for centralized visibility and automated response
- Perform security testing and validation across cloud, application, API, and AI layers, including AI-specific scenarios such as prompt injection and model misuse prior to production deployment
- Automate security operations through scripting and tooling (e.g., Python, Power Shell) to improve efficiency, scalability, and consistency of controls
- Conduct risk assessments, threat modeling, and security reviews for cloud infrastructure and AI systems to identify vulnerabilities and implement mitigation strategies
- Collaborate with AI teams, and security stakeholders to drive secure‑by‑design architectures and enable scalable, governed AI adoption
- Triage and analyze findings from security tools including AI SPM platforms, IaC scanners, CSPM, and vulnerability management tools, ensuring timely prioritization and remediation across cloud and AI environments
- Research and stay current on emerging security standards, AI security trends, threat vectors, and vulnerabilities, including risks specific to Generative AI, LLMs, and ML systems
- Hands‑on Experience With AI security tools, and Understanding of LLM and AI‑specific threats
- Develop, document, and disseminate security guidelines, remediation playbooks, and hardened baselines for both cloud and AI systems
- Collaborate with Penetration Testing teams to perform security assessments across cloud platforms and AI systems, including adversarial testing, prompt injection simulations, and AI misuse scenarios
- Partner with Security Operations (SOC) and Incident Response teams to ensure effectiveness of preventive, detective, and responsive controls for cloud and AI environments
- Implement and tune monitoring and detection controls for cloud infrastructure and AI systems, and support response to AI‑related threats such as model abuse or data leakage
- Build and maintain automation to streamline security tasks, testing, validation workflows, and remediation processes across cloud and AI pipelines
- Configure, integrate, and maintain security tools and technologies, for AI SPM solutions, Model and Agent security solution, ensuring comprehensive coverage across cloud and AI workloads
- Continuously evaluate and recommend proactive security improvements based on evolving cloud and AI threat landscapes, including enhancements to AI governance and security posture
