What You’ll Do
We are seeking a highly skilled and technically hands‑on Cybersecurity Manager – AI Architecture to lead the secure design and engineering assurance of AI/ML systems across the enterprise. This role operates as a technical leader and partnering with multiple teams across business units—including data science, ML engineering, cloud/platform engineering, application development, security operations, and risk/compliance—to embed secure‑by‑design principles into AI systems. The ideal candidate brings a strong engineering foundation and thrives on hands‑on technical execution, architectural ownership, and cross‑functional collaboration. They combine deep technical expertise with the ability to influence stakeholders and enable secure, scalable AI adoption across the enterprise.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the design and implementation of secure AI/ML architecture frameworks aligned with zero‑trust principles.
- Develop enterprise security standards and reference architectures for LLMs, generative AI platforms, and ML pipelines.
- Conduct AI‑specific threat modeling (model poisoning, adversarial attacks, prompt injection, data leakage, model inversion, supply chain risk).
- Embed security controls into AI CI/CD pipelines, MLOps workflows, and DevSecOps processes across business units.
- Ensure secure handling of training data, fine‑tuning datasets, model artifacts, and embeddings through encryption and access governance.
- Secure AI workloads in cloud and hybrid environments (AWS, Azure, GCP), including containerized and Kubernetes‑based deployments.
- Integrate AI systems with enterprise identity and access management, cloud security posture controls, application security scanning, runtime monitoring, and vulnerability management platforms.
- Define AI‑specific logging, telemetry, detection strategies, and incident response readiness.
- Provide hands‑on architectural guidance and code‑level review when required.
