Role: AI Security Architect (MLSecOps); AI Offensive Security Researcher - Red Team, VAPT & Agentic Security

Location: Bangalore, Hybrid

About the role...

We are looking for a AI offensive Security researcher / Senior AI Security Architect with MLSecOps experience to lead the next generation of AI-native security at o9.

You will own two parallel missions: securing o9's GenAI platform and agentic AI ecosystem from emerging threats, and building AI/ML-driven capabilities that transform how our security operations detect, predict, and respond to adversarial activity across 500+ customer environments.

Our security platform ingests 22 billion events per month across 176,000+ hosts, 266 Kubernetes clusters, and 3,042 cloud accounts. The intelligence hidden in that telemetry remains largely unmined. Simultaneously, o9's GenAI platform is scaling rapidly - production AI agents, RAG pipelines, MCP tool integrations, and autonomous planning workflows that introduce a fundamentally recent class of security risk. This role exists to address both.

What you'll do:




- Design and execute AI-specific VAPT engagements - prompt injection chains, RAG pipeline poisoning, agent identity spoofing, and tool-layer exploitation across MCP and A2A boundaries
- Lead structured AI red team exercises and scenario-based tabletops, delivering CVSS - scored, MITRE ATLAS mapped findings with actionable remediation guidance
- Build and maintain AI security automation tooling: prompt fuzzing harnesses, guardrail regression test suites, and detection rule generators fed by red team TTP libraries
- Contribute to threat modeling for agentic systems -mapping trust boundaries, privilege escalation paths, and blast radius across autonomous agent clusters
- Feed red team findings back into detection engineering as quality inputs, closing the loop between offensive discovery and SOC coverage gaps

What you'll have:
- 10- 15+ years of total experience in Security Operations
- 4+ years in application security
