Key Responsibilities
Cyber Security Automation & AI
  • Lead and deliver multiple initiatives leveraging Automation, AI, and ML to enhance cyber security detection, response, and prevention capabilities.
  • Design and implement AI-driven security use cases, including anomaly detection, threat intelligence enrichment, alert triage, and automated remediation.
  • Apply Agentic AI and LLMs to improve security operations workflows (SOC automation, incident summarization, policy interpretation, control validation).
Technical Leadership & Hands-On Delivery
  • Serve as a technical subject matter expert (SME) with strong hands-on capabilities across:
    • AWS services (e.g., Lambda, S3, IAM, Bedrock, SageMaker, CloudWatch)
    • Python for automation, data processing, and ML pipelines
    • LLMs and ML models for classification, prediction, and natural language use cases
  • Review solution designs, code, and architectures to ensure security, scalability, and performance best practices.
  • Drive adoption of secure coding, MLOps, and cloud security standards.
Team Leadership & Mentorship
  • Lead, mentor, and guide offshore delivery teams, ensuring high-quality execution and continuous capability development.
  • Define clear delivery goals, technical standards, and success metrics for distributed teams.
  • Foster a culture of ownership, learning, and innovation within the team.
Stakeholder & Delivery Management
  • Navigate ambiguity and evolving requirements while working with diverse stakeholders, including:
    • Cyber Architects
    • Engineering & Delivery teams
    • Compliance, Risk, and Governance
    • Platform and Cloud teams
  • Translate complex technical concepts into clear, actionable insights for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Communicate project status, risks, dependencies, and outcomes in a concise and transparent manner.
Innovation & Continuous Improvement
  • Stay current with emerging AI/ML, GenAI, and cyber security trends, tools, and techniques.
  • Proactively identify opportunities to introduce innovative AI-driven security solutions that improve resilience, efficiency, and risk posture.
  • Contribute to the evolution of the organization's cyber automation and AI roadmap.
Required Qualifications
  • 6-10+ years of experience in Cyber Security, Cloud Engineering, or Security Automation, with increasing leadership responsibility.
  • Strong hands-on experience with AWS cloud services and security-native architectures.
  • Proficiency in Python for automation and AI/ML development.
  • Practical experience working with ML models, LLMs, and/or Agentic AI frameworks.
  • Experience leading offshore or distributed teams.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to work across technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Proven ability to operate effectively in ambiguous, fast-paced, and regulated environments.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience in financial services or regulated industries.
  • Familiarity with SOC operations, SIEM/SOAR platforms, and cyber risk frameworks.
  • Experience with MLOps, model monitoring, and AI governance.
  • Exposure to security compliance frameworks (NIST, ISO, SOC2)
Success Metrics
  • Measurable improvement in cyber security posture through AI-driven automation.
  • Reduction in manual effort and alert fatigue across security operations.
  • On-time, high-quality delivery of automation and AI initiatives.
