• Experience in fintech or regulated environments
• Knowledge of AI governance frameworks (EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001)
• Experience with AI red teaming
• Background in cybersecurity or application security (OWASP, Secure SDLC)
  
  

Soft Skills:

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Ability to translate technical risk into business impact
• Able to explain AI security risks and mitigations to non-security teams
• Cross-functional collaboration with ML, data, and product teams
