Senior Cloud & AI Security Enablement Engineer

Salary: £61,000 - 101,000 per year

Requirements:

• Experience in machine learning engineering.
• Strong experience in cloud security engineering, application security, security architecture, DevSecOps, or security automation.
• Hands-on experience with at least one major cloud platform, such as AWS or Azure.
• Practical knowledge of IAM, logging, encryption, secrets management, network security, storage security, vulnerability management, and secure CI/CD.
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code and cloud security tooling such as CSPM, CNAPP, IaC scanning, SAST, SCA, secrets scanning, or policy-as-code.
• Ability to translate security standards and architecture requirements into practical implementation patterns.
• Familiarity with generative AI, LLM-enabled applications, AI-assisted development, or AI security risks.
• Strong scripting, automation, workflow design, or tooling integration experience.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to create clear security guidance for engineering teams.
• Desirable: Experience building cloud security guardrails, landing zone controls, reusable modules, or automated remediation workflows.
• Desirable: Experience supporting regulated environments or environments with strict customer, contractual, or compliance obligations.
• Desirable: Familiarity with AI security guidance such as the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, NIST Generative AI Profile, OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications, or Cloud Security Alliance AI security guidance.
• Desirable: Experience with RAG architecture, AI agents, vector databases, AI APIs, prompt engineering, or AI application threat modelling.
• Desirable: Experience building security knowledge assistants, prompt libraries, AI-assisted review workflows, or security automation.

Responsibilities:

• Build and maintain reusable cloud security guardrails for identity, logging, encryption, network segmentation, secrets management, storage, workloads, containers, serverless services, and data protection.
• Translate security architecture standards into deployable cloud patterns, reference implementations, templates, and engineering-ready requirements.
• Partner with cloud, platform, DevOps, and product engineering teams to embed security controls into cloud landing zones, CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code workflows, and operational processes.
• Support the implementation and tuning of CSPM, CNAPP, cloud workload protection, IaC scanning, secrets scanning, and related cloud security tools.
• Develop policy-as-code and control-as-code mechanisms to prevent, detect, and report common cloud misconfigurations.
• Support cloud-native vulnerability and misconfiguration remediation with prioritization logic, remediation guidance, and reusable fix patterns.
• Establish cloud security metrics and dashboards covering control adoption, misconfiguration trends, remediation progress, recurring issues, and exception patterns.
• Design and maintain AI-assisted workflows for security intake triage, threat model drafting, architecture review summaries, control mapping, remediation guidance, and risk statement generation.
• Build prompt libraries, review rubrics, validation steps, and human-in-the-loop processes for approved AI use within Information Security.
• Identify repetitive BISO, AppSec, and Security Architecture tasks that can be safely accelerated through AI-assisted processes.
• Partner with GRC, Legal, Privacy, and security leadership to ensure AI-assisted security workflows are auditable, explainable, and aligned with internal risk expectations.
• Measure the effectiveness of AI-assisted workflows, including time saved, consistency improvements, review quality, and reduction in repeat manual work.
• Define secure design patterns for AI-enabled applications, including LLM-based features, retrieval-augmented generation, AI agents, AI APIs, copilots, and automation workflows.
• Establish cloud security requirements for AI workloads, including identity, secrets, data storage, network access, observability, workload isolation, and third‑party AI service integrations, in partnership with Security Architecture and AppSec.
• Support AI application threat modelling and risk reviews in partnership with BISO/AppSec.
• Create developer-facing guidance for safe use of AI coding assistants, AI APIs, data ingestion, vector stores, model outputs, and AI-generated code in partnership with BISO/AppSec.
• Convert recurring BISO/AppSec and Security Architecture questions into reusable guidance, decision trees, approved patterns, checklists, and self-service workflows.
• Build lightweight intake and routing mechanisms to determine when a request needs BISO review, AppSec review, architecture review, GRC input, or engineering remediation.
• Create and maintain a library of approved cloud and AI security patterns for product and engineering teams.
• Help reduce one-off security consultations by embedding approved security decisions into tooling, templates, and standard delivery workflows.
