TL;DR · Senior Advisor AI Security Architecture and Risk

As an AI Security Architecture and Risk, Sr Advisor within the Cybersecurity team, you will lead the security design and risk-assessment approach for the enterprise AI program. You will be responsible for shaping reference architectures, establishing risk tiering models, and defining guardrail standards to ensure secure-by-design AI delivery. Your daily work involves developing multi-factor risk-tiering frameworks, determining control requirements for hallucination and prompt injection, and creating threat models using STRIDE, MAESTRO, and MITRE ATLAS. You will evaluate agentic AI frameworks and provide build-vs-buy recommendations for protection tools like Arize or Varonis. The role requires expertise in NIST AI RMF, OWASP LLM Top 10, and ISO/IEC 42001. You will also utilize policy-as-code tools like Sentinel to translate security policies into enforceable controls while navigating the complexities of regulated financial services environments.

What you'll do

  • Lead the design of enterprise AI security reference architectures and define secure defaults for agentic workloads.
  • Build and manage a multi-factor risk-assessment framework to categorize and route AI initiatives into appropriate delivery lanes.
  • Define control requirements and guardrail thresholds for hallucination, PII/PHI exposure, prompt injection, and toxicity.
  • Develop and maintain threat models using STRIDE, MAESTRO, and MITRE ATLAS for new AI system patterns.
  • Evaluate emerging agentic AI frameworks for architectural risks and establish secure defaults before production.
  • Translate security design decisions into platform-enforceable policies and automated guardrails.
  • Provide expert guidance on build-vs-buy strategies for AI protection tooling and observability platforms.
  • Design decision logic to enable the future automation of security controls by AI agents.

What we're looking for

  • 10+ years of experience in security architecture, specifically within cloud-native, AI/ML, or platform security domains.
  • Proficiency with AI risk frameworks including NIST AI RMF, MITRE ATLAS, OWASP LLM Top 10, and ISO/IEC 42001.
  • Experience designing risk-classification or governance models that balance security assurance with delivery speed.
  • Experience with policy-as-code tooling (Sentinel) to translate security policies into platform-enforceable controls.
  • Familiarity with the commercial AI protection landscape for making build-vs-buy and tooling recommendations.
  • Proven ability to lead through influence across organizational boundaries and communicate complex risks to C-suite audiences.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, or a related field, or equivalent work experience.
  • Must possess valid and unrestricted U.S. work authorization without requiring current or future sponsorship.
