Original job description

AHEAD builds platforms for digital business. By weaving together advances in cloud infrastructure, automation and analytics, and software delivery, we help enterprises deliver on the promise of digital transformation.

At AHEAD, we prioritize creating a culture of belonging, where all perspectives and voices are represented, valued, respected, and heard. We create spaces to empower everyone to speak up, make change, and drive the culture at AHEAD.

We are an equal opportunity employer, and do not discriminate based on an individual's race, national origin, color, gender, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, religion, age, disability, marital status, or any other protected characteristic under applicable law, whether actual or perceived.

We embrace all candidates that will contribute to the diversification and enrichment of ideas and perspectives at AHEAD.

The Senior Technical Consultant (Forward Deployed Engineer) for AI Security is a senior, customer-facing technical engineer responsible for deploying, integrating, and operationalizing AI security capabilities in real-world customer and enterprise environments, with a focus on securing AI systems, LLM applications, and agentic workflows. This role works at the intersection of engineering, AI, security, data, and customer success to translate complex requirements into scalable, production-ready solutions.

This individual partners closely with security leads, AI engineers, data scientists, platform teams, and infrastructure stakeholders to implement AI security controls, secure AI development pipelines, integrate security tooling for AI systems, and accelerate time to value. The ideal candidate brings 7+ years of security experience and combines deep technical expertise in AI systems, model and data security, and cloud platforms with proven experience developing technical proposals and statements of work, leading cross-team collaboration, and driving customer-facing delivery at a principal level.

Responsibilities

Customer and Stakeholder Delivery

• Serve as the technical engineer for deploying and operationalizing AI security solutions in customer or enterprise environments

• Support development technical proposals, statements of work, and solution architectures that scope AI security engagements and support business development efforts

• Translate business, operational, and AI security requirements into deployable architectures and implementation plans

• Partner with internal and external stakeholders to ensure solutions are aligned to AI governance, compliance requirements, and long-term platform strategy

• Support engagement leaders during onboarding, implementation, rollout, and optimization phases

Solution Implementation and Integration

• Design and implement integrations across AI platforms, model registries, LLM gateways, vector databases, and AI-enabled security tooling

• Build and configure cloud-native data ingestion, normalization, and enrichment pipelines for AI telemetry, model activity logs, and prompt/response data

• Integrate APIs, webhooks, message queues, and automation workflows across AI operations, identity, cloud, and application ecosystems supporting AI systems

• Develop reusable deployment patterns, templates, and technical assets to accelerate future AI security implementations

AI Security Operations

• Operationalize security controls and guardrails for AI systems, including prompt injection defense, model access controls, data leakage prevention, and agentic workflow monitoring

• Secure non-human identities (NHI), including service accounts, API keys, tokens, and autonomous agent credentials, across AI and agentic workflows

• Work with AI, detection engineering, and data teams to implement red teaming, adversarial testing, model risk scoring, and anomaly detection for AI systems

• Help define data requirements, feedback loops, and operational guardrails needed to secure AI systems in production environments

• Ensure deployed solutions are practical, measurable, and aligned to AI governance and risk objectives

Automation and Reliability

• Implement secure and governed automation for AI security monitoring, investigation, and response use cases across heterogeneous environments

• Support resiliency, observability, performance, and scale requirements for deployed AI security solutions

• Troubleshoot integration issues, deployment blockers, and production challenges in partnership with AI, platform, cloud, and security teams

• Improve reliability and maintainability through documentation, testing, monitoring, and standardized engineering practices

Cross-Functional Leadership

• Lead cross-team collaboration across AI Engineering, Security Engineering, Data Science, Infrastructure, Sales, and product or customer teams

• Communicate technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders

• Mentor and develop engineers and consultants, contributing to best practices for AI security implementation, delivery, and technical solution design

• Provide field feedback to influence platform roadmap, product direction, and architectural standards

Required Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience in security engineering, AI engineering, platform engineering, forward deployed engineering, solutions consulting, or related technical roles, with demonstrated progression to a principal or senior consulting level

• Hands-on experience securing AI systems, LLM applications, or AI production pipelines

• Experience deploying cloud-native architectures on at least one major cloud provider such as AWS, Azure, or GCP

• Strong background in data integration, telemetry pipelines, normalization, and security analytics workflows applied to AI systems

• Experience working directly with customers, executive stakeholders, or cross-functional delivery teams in implementation-focused environments

• Proven experience developing technical proposals, statements of work, and scoping documents for customer engagements

Technical Skills

• Strong understanding of AI security risks, including prompt injection, model theft, data poisoning, adversarial attacks, and agentic AI risks, alongside foundational cloud, identity, and endpoint security

• Experience with scripting and automation using tools such as Python, PowerShell, or Bash

• Familiarity with APIs and integration patterns including REST, webhooks, and event-driven workflows

• Working knowledge of AI concepts including LLMs, vector search, retrieval-augmented generation, model evaluation, and AI assistants or agents

• Strong problem-solving skills, execution mindset, and ability to operate effectively in ambiguous, fast-moving environments

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with implementation and integration of OpenAI models, specifically Daybreak Blue and/or Red

• Experience with implementation and integration of Anthropic models

• Experience with AI red teaming, adversarial AI testing, or AI governance frameworks such as the NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, or the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications

• Familiarity with the MITRE ATLAS (Adversarial Threat Landscape for Artificial-Intelligence Systems) knowledge base for AI-specific attack techniques and mitigations

• Experience deploying solutions in regulated or compliance-sensitive environments

• Familiarity with infrastructure as code, CI/CD workflows, and AI production delivery practices

• Experience building reusable implementation frameworks or field engineering playbooks

• Relevant certifications are a plus, including cloud, security, or AI-specific certifications

Education Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Security, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
