Cyber Security Architect AI Cybersecurity Threat Monitoring

Position Overview

We are seeking a Security Architect specializing in AI Cybersecurity Threat Monitoring to establish and operationalize threat response capabilities targeting and leveraging AI systems. This role focuses on identifying, detecting, investigating, hunting, and responding to emerging threats across enterprise GenAI, agentic AI, foundation models, data sources, non-human identities, Model Context Protocol (MCP), and tool integrations.

Rather than siloing AI security, the Architect will integrate AI threat response, threat modeling, and detection engineering into existing SOC, IR, and Threat Hunting workflows using industry frameworks such as MITRE ATLAS, NIST AI RMF, and OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications. This individual must move seamlessly between threat research, architecture roadmapping, and hands-on detection engineering.

Key Responsibilities

AI Threat Modeling & Attack Scenarios: Define and pilot an AI Threat Modeling capability; build a comprehensive library of AI attack scenarios mapped to the MITRE ATLAS framework to support Purple Teaming and Adversary Emulation.

Detection Engineering & SIEM/SOAR: Design, build, test, and tune high-fidelity AI detection rules, correlation logic, and automated response playbooks within enterprise SIEM/SOAR platforms.

AI Threat Hunting: Build proactive, AI-focused threat hunting playbooks and execute targeted hunts across enterprise GenAI platforms, cloud environments, and AI APIs.

Telemetry & Logging Architecture: Define telemetry, logging, and observability requirements across AI systems (e.g., token usage, prompt/response telemetry, MCP integrations) and lead gap analyses to expand SOC visibility.

Adversary Emulation & Purple Teaming: Partner with Threat Informed Defense and Purple Teams to validate AI-specific attack paths, test defense effectiveness, and tune alerting thresholds.

Incident Response & Forensics Support: Collaborate with the IR team to author and refine AI-specific runbooks, investigation workflows, and digital forensics/evidence-gathering standards.

Strategic Roadmapping & Executive Advisory: Conduct organizational readiness assessments, track emerging AI attack vectors, and present risk mitigation roadmaps and investment recommendations to technology leadership.
