The Experience

As a Vulnerability Operations and Response Principal, you own the strategy, design, and continuous scaling of the enterprise vulnerability management framework across all internal business units, multi-cloud environments, and emerging AI and machine learning (ML) deployments. Modern high-scale software as a service (SaaS) and AI infrastructure demand a proactive, risk-driven approach to the vulnerability lifecycle that goes far beyond static compliance tracking. You serve as a technical authority and strategic operator, partnering with engineering, infrastructure, and product security groups to identify, prioritize, and neutralize infrastructure vulnerabilities, software flaws, and novel AI-specific security risks at cloud scale. You gain the opportunity to shape how a global enterprise secures its AI-forward platforms and to present your work directly to executive security leadership.

What You'll Actually Be Doing

- Own the internal Vulnerability Operations roadmap end to end, driving strategy and execution for traditional infrastructure, container and microservice ecosystems, and secure development.

- Build and enforce specialized security governance and vulnerability assessment frameworks for AI and ML workloads, including model supply chain risks, prompt injection pathways, shadow AI deployments, and data pipeline exposures.

- Support critical vulnerability response operations, including leading high-profile vulnerability incidents and improving processes for your teams and partner teams during those incidents.

- Partner with Product Management, Engineering, and Architecture leaders across internal groups to build capabilities that minimize exposure to vulnerabilities across the entire vulnerability lifecycle.

- Design techniques for continuous automated scanning, intelligent triage, and ticketing orchestration pipelines that eliminate manual overhead and streamline remediation without creating operational bottlenecks.

- Report systemic posture trends, emerging AI threat vectors, model vulnerability metrics, and cross-group Service Level Agreement (SLA) performance directly to executive security leadership and C-level stakeholders.
