We are seeking a Senior Engineering Manager to lead the development of advanced AI security capabilities within a global security and defence environment. This is a senior leadership role combining technical direction, engineering management and strategic delivery. You will be responsible for building and guiding high-performing, multidisciplinary teams working on the secure design, deployment and operation of artificial intelligence and machine-learning systems.
You will define engineering strategy and roadmaps for AI security, ensuring that products and platforms are resilient, trustworthy and capable of operating in complex, high-risk environments. Your responsibilities will include leading the development of threat models, security controls, evaluation frameworks and monitoring approaches for AI systems; improving protection against adversarial attacks, prompt injection, data poisoning, model extraction and other emerging threats; and establishing robust processes for security testing, incident response and continuous assurance. You will work closely with specialists in software engineering, research, infrastructure, governance, risk and compliance to translate evolving threats into practical technical solutions.
The successful candidate will have substantial experience leading engineering teams and delivering secure, reliable software or platform capabilities at scale. You will bring strong knowledge of cybersecurity principles, secure software development and modern cloud or distributed systems, together with a sound understanding of machine-learning systems and their associated risks. Experience in areas such as AI red teaming, model security, privacy engineering, threat intelligence or safety assurance would be highly valuable. You should be comfortable setting priorities in ambiguous situations, influencing senior stakeholders and communicating complex technical issues clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. A collaborative, inclusive leadership style and a commitment to developing people are essential. The role may involve work with sensitive information and requires a high level of integrity, discretion and professionalism.
