AI Security Lead

Responsibilities

AI Security Evaluations:

Conduct structured adversarial testing, vulnerability analysis, and security assessments on AI models, datasets, and pipelines to identify technical weaknesses.

2. Design AI Security Testing Methodologies:

Develop evaluation strategies, attack simulations, and test cases that examine model behavior under adversarial and stress conditions.

3. Analyze Model Vulnerabilities:

Review model outputs, logs, and error patterns to detect indicators of poisoning, evasion, extraction attempts, or unsafe behavior requiring mitigation.

4. Support Development of AI Defense Mechanisms:

Contribute technical insights for designing and implementing guardrail components, safety filters, validation controls, and secure model behavior constraints.

5. Conduct Research on Emerging AI Threats:

Study new attack surfaces such as prompt injection, model inversion, indirect influence attacks, and supply chain vulnerabilities relevant to modern AI systems.

6. Build Security Testing Scripts and Pipelines:

Create and maintain scripts, automation tasks, and evaluation pipelines that streamline security testing, red team simulations, and model behavior monitoring.

7. Document AI Security Findings:

Prepare technical reports, vulnerability summaries, experiment results, and evidence artifacts that support security reviews and R&D decision-making.

8. Collaborate with Cross Functional Teams:

Work with engineering, Responsible AI, cybersecurity, and data science teams to jointly investigate issues and integrate necessary security improvements.

9. Secure Model Deployment Activities:

Assist in validating the security posture of models before deployment by verifying guardrail integration, access controls, and vulnerability remediation.

10. Monitor Emerging AI Security Tools and Techniques:

Continuously evaluate new defensive methods, adversarial testing libraries, and AI security research to enhance testing capabilities and inform tooling upgrades.
