• You can think like an attacker and understand how to identify risks and implement countermeasures against threats that span identity, endpoint, network, and cloud boundaries.

• You have a solid understanding of the risks introduced by agentic AI in an enterprise context and you are eager to get hands-on identifying and mitigating these risks in our environment.

• You actively leverage AI tooling to augment your own work and are eager to explore how emerging AI capabilities can be applied to enterprise security challenges.

• You can critically evaluate tools, practices and procedures, and you're willing to advocate for improvements and change when you see opportunities or risk.
