About the Role
We are seeking a highly motivated AI Solutions Security Engineer to join Deltek’s growing AI Center of Excellence team to design, build, and operate the security, compliance, guardrail, and policy controls that keep our internal Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning solutions safe, trustworthy, and production-ready. The ideal candidate combines deep expertise in AI security, application and cloud security, Generative AI, Large Language Models (LLMs), SLMs, and software engineering with a practical understanding of MLOps/LLMOps to secure AI applications without slowing the teams that build them. This role reports to the Senior AI Solutions Architect.
Key Responsibilities
AI Security & Threat Defense
- Design and implement security architecture and controls for LLM, Generative AI, RAG, and agentic AI applications.
- Perform threat modeling and AI-specific risk assessments aligned to frameworks such as OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications, MITRE ATLAS, and NIST AI RMF.
- Defend against prompt injection, jailbreaks, data exfiltration, model and data poisoning, insecure output handling, and excessive agent autonomy.
- Conduct AI red teaming, adversarial testing, and penetration testing of models, prompts, agents, and integrations; track findings through remediation.
- Secure MCP servers, agent-to-agent (A2A) communication, tool calling, and plugin integrations with least-privilege access, authentication, and authorization.
- Protect models, embeddings, vector stores, prompts, and training data with encryption, access controls, secrets management, and network isolation.
AI Guardrails & Runtime Protection
- Design, implement, and tune guardrails for input and output filtering, content safety, topic restrictions, grounding checks, and hallucination mitigation.
- Build and operate PII, sensitive data, and secrets detection and redaction across prompts, retrieved context, and model responses.
- Evaluate and integrate guardrail tooling such as AWS Bedrock Guardrails, Azure AI Content Safety, NeMo Guardrails, Guardrails AI, and LLM Guard.
- Build automated safety, security, and bias evaluation suites and run them as quality gates in CI/CD pipelines.
AI Compliance, Policy & Governance
- Translate AI policies, Responsible AI principles, and regulatory requirements into enforceable technical controls and policy-as-code.
- Support compliance with frameworks and regulations such as the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, and CCPA.
- Establish and run AI risk review, and exception processes with security, privacy, legal, and business stakeholders.
Monitoring, Detection & Incident Response
- Implement logging, monitoring, and alerting for AI-specific security events such as policy violations, anomalous usage, data leakage, and model abuse.
- Integrate AI telemetry with SIEM, SOAR, and observability platforms to support detection and response.
- Develop AI incident response playbooks and participate in triage, investigation, and post-incident reviews.
AI Solutions Engineering
- Collaborate with AI data scientists and solutions teams to design, build, and deploy secure Generative AI, RAG, and agentic solutions using LLMs such as GPT, Claude, Gemini, Llama, and Mistral.
- Develop production-grade Python services, APIs, and reusable secure components, such as guardrail libraries, SDKs, and templates.
- Integrate AI services with enterprise systems, identity providers, and data platforms using secure design patterns.
Cloud & DevSecOps
- Secure AI workloads on AWS (preferred) and Azure, including IAM, VPC and private networking, KMS, and secrets management.
- Embed security scanning in CI/CD pipelines, including SAST, DAST, dependency and SBOM checks, container and image scanning, and infrastructure-as-code scanning.
Required Qualifications
Education
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
Experience
- 5+ years of software engineering, application security, cloud security, or machine learning engineering experience.
- 2+ years of hands-on experience securing, developing, or deploying Agentic AI, Generative AI, or AI/ML solutions in production environments.
- Demonstrated experience implementing security, privacy, or compliance controls in a regulated or enterprise setting.
