• Knowledge of evolving security risks affecting AI/ML products, agent-based systems, AI models and pipelines.
• Demonstrated adversarial mindset, with the ability to develop threat models and partner with engineering teams to reduce security risk.
• Experience securing multi-cloud platforms and multi-tenant SaaS systems, including Kubernetes- and Docker-based environments.
• Practical experience performing manual and tool-assisted secure code reviews across languages such as Java, JavaScript, Python, or similar.
• Hands-on experience conducting security assessments using common tools such as Burp Suite, Nessus, Metasploit, and Nmap.
• At least 3-5 years of experience in application, product, or security engineering, or a related technical security role.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to clearly convey security risks to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Hands-on experience exploiting AI/ML and GenAI security risks, including model poisoning, RAG data leakage, and runtime attack vectors.
