Senior AI Compliance, Risk & Security Engineer
We are seeking a Senior AI Compliance, Risk & Security Engineer to lead the development and implementation of governance, risk and security practices for artificial intelligence systems. This role will help ensure that AI products and services are designed, deployed and operated responsibly, securely and in line with applicable laws, regulations, industry standards and internal policies. You will work closely with engineering, product, legal, privacy, information security and audit teams to identify risks early and embed appropriate controls throughout the AI lifecycle.
Your responsibilities will include establishing AI risk management processes; conducting model, data and application risk assessments; defining security and compliance requirements; and supporting the creation of policies, standards and technical guidance. You will assess risks relating to privacy, data protection, bias, explainability, robustness, misuse, third-party services and emerging threats such as prompt injection and model manipulation. You will also design and maintain control frameworks, contribute to security architecture reviews, coordinate audits and assessments, track remediation activities, and prepare clear reports for senior stakeholders. The role will involve monitoring regulatory developments and translating them into practical requirements for technical and operational teams.
The successful candidate will have substantial experience in AI governance, cybersecurity, technology risk, privacy engineering, compliance or a closely related discipline, together with a strong understanding of machine learning systems and software development lifecycles. Experience with recognised frameworks and standards such as the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, ISO 27001, ISO 42001, SOC 2, GDPR or equivalent regulatory requirements is highly desirable. You should be comfortable working with ambiguity, influencing stakeholders and communicating complex risks to both technical and non-technical audiences. Strong analytical, documentation and project management skills are essential, as is the ability to balance innovation with proportionate risk controls. Relevant professional certifications in security, privacy, risk or audit are advantageous.
