Supported by operating principles of being strategy-led, values-based and disciplined in execution, you’ll be inspired, connected, developed and rewarded here. Everything that makes you unique is welcome; join us and let’s build what’s next - together!
- Produce reference architectures: design and maintain security patterns for platform and AI components, working to the standards set by the Principal. • Contribute to identity and authorisation design: including tenant isolation, service-to-service trust, and authorisation for AI agents and analyst-style workflows. • Apply cryptography and key management: work on encryption, BYOK and key custody. Be clear about where data is plaintext, who can use keys, and what each control protects against. • Design AI guardrails: input and output controls, tool and authorisation boundaries, and prompt-injection and abuse defences. Draw on MITRE ATLAS and the OWASP LLM Top 10. • Run threat models: lead them on high-risk systems, working with engineers to trace trust boundaries and compromise paths. Turn the findings into prioritised, actionable design changes. • Support external assessments: prepare architecture evidence, join discovery sessions with engineering, and check that what is built matches what is documented. • Improve the supply chain and attack surface: build integrity and provenance, hardened images, and less exposed surface. • Stay hands-on: write and review designs and prototypes, and test your own work. • Grow the practice: mentor engineers, contribute to standards, and help turn design decisions into enforceable guidance. What we're looking for
- Solid experience in secure software architecture, with depth in at least two of: cryptography and key management, identity and authorisation, tenant isolation, and threat modelling. • A working understanding of AI and ML security, and of how LLM-driven features change identity, authorisation, supply chain, and verification. • The ability to design and review real systems, and to defend your decisions to strong engineers. • A record of influencing engineers without formal authority, including when risk and delivery pressure conflict. • Experience with enterprise-scale SaaS or cloud-first systems, ideally multi-tenant. • Clear written and verbal communication. You can explain architecture honestly to engineers, leadership, and customers. Nice to have
- Experience with Vault, KMS/HSM, or BYOK/HYOK designs. • Experience designing for regulated environments, such as FedRAMP. • Contributions to NIST, ISO, or OWASP, or talks and published research. • An offensive grounding that you use to pressure-test designs.
