Senior Security Engineer - AI
About the assignment
A leading organisation in tech-saas is scaling its AI capabilities and needs security built in from day one. You secure machine learning workflows, LLM deployments, and AI infrastructure across cloud environments. Your work prevents data poisoning, model theft, prompt injection attacks, and ensures AI systems comply with emerging regulations like the AI Act.
You're not firefighting—you're architecting security into AI from design phase onwards. You collaborate with ML engineers, data teams, and compliance to embed security without slowing innovation.
Your responsibilities
- Design security architectures for machine learning pipelines and model governance frameworks
- Implement controls against adversarial attacks, data poisoning, and model extraction threats
- Monitor and secure large language model (LLM) deployments and third-party AI services
- Conduct threat modelling for AI/ML systems using MITRE ATLAS and AI-specific attack vectors
- Build security testing frameworks for model validation and prompt injection detection
- Establish data governance and access controls for training datasets and model artifacts
- Advise on AI Act compliance, responsible AI principles, and ethical AI governance
