Staff - Security Architecture

Were looking for a Jr AI Security Architect to join our growing Security Architecture team. This role will support the design implementation and protection of AI/ML systems models and datasets. The ideal candidate is passionate about the intersection of artificial intelligence and cybersecurity and eager to contribute to building securebydesign AI systems that protect users data and business integrity.

Key Responsibilities

Secure AI Model Development

Partner with AI/ML teams to embed security into the model development lifecycle including during data collection model training evaluation and deployment.

Contribute to threat modeling exercises for AI/ML pipelines to identify risks such as model poisoning data leakage or adversarial input attacks.

Support the evaluation and implementation of model explainability fairness and accountability techniques to address security and compliance concerns.

Develop and train internal models for security purposes

Model Training & Dataset Security

Help design controls to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of training datasets including the use of differential privacy data validation pipelines and access controls.

Assist in implementing secure storage and version control practices for datasets and model artifacts.

Evaluate training environments for exposure to risks such as unauthorized data access insecure thirdparty libraries or compromised containers.

AI Infrastructure Hardening

Work with infrastructure and MLOps teams to secure AI platforms (e.g. MLFlow Kubeflow SageMaker Vertex AI) including compute resources APIs CI/CD pipelines and model registries.

Contribute to security reviews of AIrelated deployments in cloud and onprem environments.

Assist in automating security checks in AI pipelines such as scanning for secrets validating container images and enforcing secure permissions.

Secure AI Integration in Products

Participate in the review and assessment of AI/ML models embedded into customerfacing products to ensure they comply with internal security and responsible AI guidelines.

Help develop misuse detection and monitoring strategies to identify model abuse (e.g. prompt injection data extraction hallucination exploitation).

Support product security teams in designing guardrails and sandboxing techniques for generative AI features (e.g. chatbots image generators copilots).

Knowledge Sharing & Enablement

Assist in creating internal training and security guidance for data scientists engineers and developers on secure AI practices.

Help maintain documentation runbooks and security checklists specific to AI/ML workloads.

Stay current on emerging AI security threats industry trends and tools; contribute to internal knowledge sharing.
