[Hiring] AI Security Engineer @J.S. Held LLC

Role Description

J.S. Held, a global consulting firm providing specialized technical, scientific, financial, and advisory services, is seeking an AI Security Engineer. This is a senior, hands-on technical role responsible for designing, engineering, and operationalizing AI security across J.S. Held’s enterprise.

This role serves as the central Cyber Security owner for all AI Security, ensuring AI technologies are securely designed, implemented, and operated across:

• AI-enabled third-party applications
• Internal AI agents
• Models
• MCP
• RAG architectures
• Training and fine-tuning pipelines
• Supporting AI platforms

The role balances hands-on engineering, solution design, and architectural leadership. While expected to influence standards, patterns, and roadmaps, this is not a purely strategic role—the engineer will actively design and enable controls.

Role weighting:

• ~70% AI Security Engineering (primary)
• ~30% Data Security Engineering (secondary), with emphasis on Microsoft Purview, especially where enterprise data is used by AI systems.

Qualifications

• 8+ years of experience in cybersecurity engineering, cloud security, application security, or data security
• Direct, hands-on experience with Azure AI Foundry and Copilot Studio in enterprise environments
• Strong experience securing cloud and SaaS platforms (Azure preferred)
• Deep understanding of identity, access control, data protection, and secure application/API design
• Proven ability to translate security requirements into practical, deployable controls

Requirements

• Experience securing generative AI, LLM-based systems, and agentic architectures
• Experience with Microsoft Copilot Administration, Anthropic and other AI platforms (e.g., OpenAI ecosystems)
• Experience with Microsoft Purview (sensitivity labels/information protection, DLP, Insider Risk Management)
• Familiarity with RAG architectures, vector databases, embeddings, and MCP integrations
• Scripting or automation experience (e.g., Python or PowerShell) to integrate security controls into engineering workflows
• Strong cross-functional communication and influence skills

Benefits

• Flexible work environment allowing remote work when needed
• Generous Annual Leave Policy
• Comprehensive Medical Insurance
