- Engineer automated response playbooks for AI security incidents - including model quarantine, token revocation, and session termination
- Continuously research emerging AI attack vectors and translate findings into detection signatures and prevention controls
- Operate and tune CrowdStrike AI Runtime Defense (AIRD) and Microsoft Purview AI governance controls across the environment
AI Platform Security Engineering
- Implement security controls across AI development and deployment platforms (AWS SageMaker, Azure OpenAI, Databricks, internal ML pipelines)
- Secure model training environments - including data access controls, compute isolation, artifact signing, and pipeline integrity verification
- Engineer guardrails for generative AI usage - content filtering, DLP integration, output validation, and session-level access controls
- Design and enforce AI model governance controls including model registry security, version control integrity, and deployment approval gates
- Perform security architecture reviews of new AI services and integrations before production deployment
AI Risk Assessment & Framework Implementation
- Conduct technical risk assessments of AI systems using MITRE ATLAS, OWASP AI Top 10, and NIST AI RMF frameworks
- Perform adversarial testing (red teaming) of AI models and AI-integrated applications to identify vulnerabilities before production deployment
- Develop and maintain AI security standards, reference architectures, and secure development guidelines for AI/ML teams
- Evaluate third-party AI services and vendor AI integrations for security posture, data handling practices, and supply chain integrity
Security Automation & AI-Augmented Defense
- Build and maintain AI-powered security tools that augment the cybersecurity team's detection and response capabilities
- Develop integrations between security platforms (CrowdStrike, Microsoft Defender, Okta, Zscaler) and AI/ML systems for intelligent threat correlation
- Engineer automated security workflows using LLMs and agentic AI for threat hunting, alert triage, and incident investigation acceleration
- Contribute to the security team's internal AI capabilities - including MCP server development, agent frameworks, and security data pipelines
- Build and maintain security scoring engines and risk quantification models that drive prioritization decisions
