Responsibilities
- Author and maintain AI security threat models covering prompt injection, tool misuse, excessive agency, data exfiltration, memory poisoning, and cross-agent trust.
- Implement least-privilege, short-lived, auditable agent identities, scoped credentials, human approval gates, sandboxing, egress controls, and MCP tool-call policies.
- Build reusable input/output guardrails, data-leak filters, structured-output validation, safety evaluations, and regression tests for AI-enabled products.
- Lead AI penetration tests and adversarial campaigns against LLM features, agents, RAG pipelines, and MCP servers using manual techniques, automated attack agents, fuzzing, and external vendors.
- Secure AI models, datasets, dependencies, plugins, agent platforms, and model provenance through supply-chain controls and AI-BOM practices.
- Build and operate production security agents for vulnerability triage, exploitability analysis, finding validation, alert enrichment, incident evidence gathering, GRC evidence collection, and questionnaire response.
- Integrate AI security telemetry with detection pipelines, SOC workflows, MDR and AISOC tooling, Jira, and security assurance processes.
- Embed AI security evaluations, policy checks, and automated testing into the software development lifecycle.
- Own measurable technical and administrative security controls mapped to SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST CSF 2.0, PCI DSS, NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, and AIUC-1.
- Provide technical leadership during incidents and vulnerability surges, set standards, review designs, mentor engineers, and support customer AI security reviews and RFPs.
Requirements
- Six or more years of security engineering experience, including senior or equivalent scope, and at least two years of hands-on production experience securing LLM and agentic AI systems.
- Broad experience across AppSec, cloud, identity, vulnerability management, detection and response, and privacy engineering, with deep expertise in at least two areas.
- Track record of maturing technical and administrative controls across a high-growth SaaS organization.
- Hands-on depth in prompt injection, jailbreaks, tool and function calling, RAG and vector-store security, memory and context handling, MCP, agent protocols, and multi-agent trust boundaries.
- Expertise in end-to-end LLM and agentic AI penetration testing, adversarial testing, exploit chaining, remediation, and reproducible reporting.
- Mastery of the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications, OWASP agentic AI guidance, and MITRE ATLAS.
- Fluency with AI red-team tools and methods such as Garak, PyRIT, Promptfoo, or equivalent custom attack harnesses and evaluation suites.
- Experience building and operating AI agents or LLM-powered security tooling with measurable evaluation, guardrails, escalation paths, and audit trails.
- Strong Python skills for security tooling, automation, and adversarial testing, with comfort using APIs, CI/CD, and cloud-native environments.
- Hands-on experience with at least one AI security platform or LLM evaluation and guardrail framework.
- Working knowledge of NIST AI RMF and ability to translate security guidance into engineering controls.
- Sound judgment regarding OAuth, workload identity, secrets handling, least privilege, and scoped short-lived credentials for non-human actors.
- Preferred qualifications include agentic AI development, adversarial AI research, AI/ML CTF or bug-bounty results, open-source or standards contributions, PKI or machine identity experience, SOC automation, regulated B2B SaaS compliance programs, privacy or security certifications, and experience across US and India teams.
