  • Ability to fix vulnerabilities directly or work closely with engineers to land durable remediations.
  • Experience handling findings from bug bounty programs, pentests, internal reviews, or automated security tooling through closure and verification.
  • Experience using AI-assisted tools, automations, APIs, or structured workflows to improve engineering or security processes at scale.
  • Experience securing AI-powered systems or features, including AI API exposure, prompt and response handling, data protection, misuse scenarios, and monitoring expectations.
  • Strong written and verbal communication, stakeholder management, and influencing skills.
  • Preferred: experience supporting or leading security reviews for AI-native products, internal agents, or AI-assisted engineering workflows.
  • Preferred: experience improving secure-by-design practices and AppSec observability in a fast-moving engineering organization.
  • Preferred: experience with security training, developer enablement, or security champions programs.
