Key Responsibilities Program & Strategy Leadership • Contribute to global Red Team and AI Red Team strategy, execution model, and operating standards. • Lead advanced attack simulations across traditional, cloud, and AI‑enabled environments. • Ensure red team activities align with enterprise risk, regulatory expectations, and control‑validation objectives. • Define multi-year technical capability roadmaps for red team operations, including cloud exploitation, identity attack paths, adversary simulation validation, AI security testing, and scalable tooling automation. Advanced Red Team Operations • Lead and oversee complex red team engagements across network, endpoint, application, cloud, and physical attack surfaces. • Direct execution of advanced attack techniques including lateral movement, persistence, and control evasion. • Lead development and use of custom exploits, tooling, and methodologies to emulate real adversaries. • Provide hands-on technical leadership during complex engagements, including attack planning, exploit validation, payload development, command-and-control operations, and post-exploitation decision making. AI Red Teaming & Emerging Technology Risk • Lead adversarial testing of AI and LLM systems (e.g., prompt injection, tool misuse, data leakage, and guardrail bypass). • Assess emerging technologies and platforms for exploitable weaknesses before and during enterprise adoption. • Integrate AI red team findings into enterprise risk, validation, remediation, and re-test workflows. • Evaluate AI-assisted developer tools (e.g., copilots) and automation platforms for security impact. • Assess how AI systems interact with identity, permissions, APIs, and enterprise data sources. • Frontier and local LLM use to augment red team capabilities and tools. • Design and execute AI-specific test cases for prompt injection, indirect prompt injection, model manipulation, jailbreak resistance, retrieval-augmented generation exposure, agentic workflow abuse, model supply chain risk, and sensitive data exfiltration. • Assess AI platforms across the full lifecycle, including model selection, training and fine-tuning data, system prompts, tool permissions, plugin integrations, API exposure, logging, monitoring, and human-in-the-loop controls. • Evaluate AI-assisted offensive and defensive tooling for operational value, misuse potential, data handling risk, and alignment with enterprise security governance. Threat Tradecraft & Capability Development • Drive research into real‑world threat actor TTPs and emerging AI‑enabled attack techniques. • Sponsor development of red team tools, scripts, and repeatable methodologies to increase realism, scale, and efficiency. • Establish standards for tooling governance, safe use, and audit readiness. • Build and maintain secure development practices for internal red team tools, including code review, dependency management, secrets handling, operational security controls, and responsible use of AI-generated code. Leadership, Mentorship & Reporting • Assist in developing senior and junior red team operators globally. • Contribute to executive‑level reporting of attack outcomes, business impact, and remediation validation. • Partner with stakeholders to ensure findings lead to sustained control improvements. Qualifications Experience • 7+ years of experience in red team and offensive security, including leading advanced attack simulations. • Demonstrated experience planning and executing attacks that evade network, endpoint, application, and cloud controls. • Hands-on experience with AI red teaming, adversarial testing, and LLM security assessments. • Experience assessing AI-enabled applications, LLM agents, retrieval-augmented generation systems, model access controls, tool/plugin permissions, and enterprise data connectors. • Proven ability to translate highly technical attack results into executive-level risk narratives, control validation outcomes, and prioritized remediation actions. Technical Expertise • Deep knowledge of application security vulnerabilities, exploitation techniques, and web/API workflows. • Experience developing or modifying offensive tooling (e.g., implants, loaders) and operating modern C2 frameworks. • Strong operational knowledge of Windows and Linux, including persistence and lateral movement techniques. • Advanced understanding of cloud and identity attack paths, including Microsoft Entra ID, Active Directory, privilege escalation, federation, service principals, conditional access weaknesses, and attack path analysis platforms. • Hands-on scripting or software engineering experience in languages such as Python, PowerShell, C#, Go, or JavaScript to support exploit development, automation, data analysis, and AI-enabled security workflows. • Working knowledge of AI security concepts, including OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications, MITRE ATLAS, model evaluation methods, prompt engineering, adversarial testing, and responsible AI controls.
