Adversarial Research & Red-Teaming: Own and stand up a formal AI red-teaming practice to identify vulnerabilities before they reach production. Research and simulate advanced attack vectors including prompt injection jailbreaking adversarial suffixes model extraction model poisoning training data leakage and AI supply chain compromise. Systematically document findings and deliver clear remediation paths to engineering teams.

  • Design build and operate secure AI gateways and policy orchestration layers spanning multiple AI models and service providers
  • Configure end point settings for AI tools in collaboration with IT end point management solutions.
  • Stand up and lead a formal AI red-teaming practice covering prompt injection jailbreaking model extraction and emerging attack vectors
  • Identify and mitigate AI-specific threats across input manipulation supply chain (model weights datasets third-party AI libraries) data privacy (training data leakage PII disclosure) and model integrity (poisoning unauthorized fine-tuning)
  • Automate security checks and guardrails to enable rapid development cycles without sacrificing security posture
  • Apply and operationalize the OWASP LLM Top 10 framework to categorize and mitigate risk
  • Own the AI security roadmap and advise senior leadership on AI risks and safe adoption
  • Embed with platform teams as a partner fostering a collaborative security culture
  • Mentor fellow engineers on AI security best practices
  • Document and report vulnerabilities with clear remediation guidance and technical direction
