  • Build and ship agentic detection and response own the full lifecycle from threat use case through detections-as-code automated triage and production agentic response workflows. 

  • Design and govern AI agent identity and delegation architect the end-to-end lifecycle for non-human identities operating in the security environment including scoped delegation audit logging and kill-switch controls. 

  • Apply MITRE ATLAS adversarial ML techniques to threat-model all agent deployments; validate guardrails against OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications and OWASP Top 10 for Agentic AI. 

 

Product Security & Cryptographic Infrastructure
