• Oversee AI-specific monitoring and incident response capabilities for suspicious prompt behavior, agent misuse, unauthorized model access, data leakage, and control failures.
• Lead or coordinate AI security testing activities including misuse-case testing, prompt attack validation, model guardrail reviews, red-team support, and remediation planning.
• Manage client stakeholders across security, cloud engineering, DevOps, architecture, data, ML engineering, privacy, legal, and risk teams.
• Lead teams of analysts, consultants, and senior consultants by assigning work, reviewing outputs, coaching team members, and ensuring quality of delivery.
• Contribute to business development, proposals, solutioning, thought leadership, reusable assets, and practice development initiatives related to cloud AI security.
