Job description

Job Description
Manager, Application & AI Security
Location: Scottsdale, AZ (hybrid)
About the Role
We are seeking a Manager, Application & AI Security to lead the security of internally developed applications, cloud application environments, CI/CD pipelines, and enterprise AI usage.
This role will establish and operate secure-by-default practices across the software development lifecycle while serving as a central technical leader for AI security and governance. The ideal candidate brings strong hands-on experience in application security and DevSecOps, along with a practical understanding of emerging AI security risks.
You will build security guardrails into development and deployment processes, oversee application security testing, manage AI and model inventories, assess prompt-injection and jailbreak risks, and establish controls for MCPs and AI-agent runtimes.
This is a highly technical leadership role focused on building scalable security capabilities rather than simply reviewing or documenting controls.
What You'll DoApplication Security & DevSecOps
  • Lead the secure software development lifecycle, incorporating NIST SSDF and ISO/IEC 27001 practices.
  • Establish application security requirements and conduct security reviews for major releases and critical applications.
  • Build and maintain secure CI/CD "golden pipelines," embedding security guardrails directly into development and deployment workflows.
  • Implement pipeline and artifact integrity controls and monitor production pipelines for security risks.
  • Lead application security testing across SAST, DAST, software composition analysis (SCA), secrets detection, API security, and related capabilities.
  • Establish API security practices aligned with OWASP standards, including the OWASP Top 10 and API Security Top 10.
  • Oversee container, Kubernetes, and Infrastructure-as-Code security scanning.
  • Lead application threat modeling and secure-code development practices.
  • Establish and maintain SBOM generation for internally developed applications.
  • Develop and deliver secure development training for engineering teams.
  • Establish application- and PaaS-level cloud security guardrails in partnership with cloud and infrastructure teams.
  • Provide application and cloud security expertise during broader technology and security reviews.
  • Help establish security guardrails for customer-facing platforms, workflows, and contact-center technologies.
AI Security & Governance
  • Serve as the technical owner for enterprise AI security controls and AI usage governance.
  • Establish controls for LLM and AI assistant usage, including public and internally hosted models.
  • Identify and manage risks associated with shadow AI, unauthorized AI tools, and potential data leakage.
  • Maintain an enterprise AI/model inventory, AI bill of materials (AI-BOM), model registry, and approval workflows.
  • Assess AI applications and models for security risks before production use.
  • Conduct prompt-injection and jailbreak testing and lead LLM security red-teaming.
  • Apply relevant AI security practices, including the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications and MITRE ATLAS.
  • Establish security controls for MCPs (Model Context Protocol) and AI-agent runtimes, including per-tool authorization, runtime guardrails, and containment.
  • Partner with governance, risk, compliance, data security, identity, infrastructure, and other teams to ensure AI security controls are implemented effectively.
  • Translate emerging AI security risks into practical technical controls and repeatable processes.
Key Initiatives
  • Enterprise AI Governance & Shadow AI: Establish AI usage policies, discovery, risk assessment, and security controls.
  • Secure CI/CD Golden Pipelines: Build DevSecOps guardrails-as-code and automated blocking of critical security findings.
  • Cloud Application Security: Strengthen security controls across cloud tenants, SaaS, and PaaS environments.
  • AI Agent & MCP Security: Develop runtime security capabilities for AI agents and tool integrations, including authorization and containment.
What Success Looks Like
In this role, success will include:
  • AI tools are risk-assessed and governed before approved enterprise use.
  • Shadow AI is identified, assessed, and addressed within established service levels.
  • Production CI/CD pipelines are covered by security guardrails and monitoring.
  • Major application releases receive appropriate security reviews.
  • Critical application security findings are prevented from reaching production.
  • SAST, DAST, SCA, API security, and secrets scanning are automated across applicable development pipelines.
  • AI/model inventories and approval workflows are accurate, current, and operational.
  • Prompt-injection, jailbreak, and AI-agent security risks are regularly assessed.
  • Application and AI security practices are embedded into engineering workflows rather than operating as a separate manual review process.
What We're Looking For
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Information Technology, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
  • 5+ years of experience in application security, DevSecOps, software security, or a closely related discipline.
  • Experience leading or mentoring security engineers or technical security teams.
  • Hands-on experience building security controls into CI/CD pipelines and development workflows.
  • Experience with CI/CD platforms such as Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, GitLab, Jenkins, or similar technologies.
  • Strong experience with application security testing, including SAST, DAST, SCA/open-source security, secrets scanning, and API security.
  • Strong understanding of API security architecture and standards, including OAuth 2.0, OWASP, and related security practices.
  • Experience securing containers, Kubernetes environments, and Infrastructure-as-Code.
  • Experience with threat modeling and software supply-chain security, including SBOMs.
  • Practical experience with AI/LLM security, including AI usage governance, prompt-injection and jailbreak testing, red-teaming, or AI-agent security.
  • Understanding of AI security and governance frameworks such as NIST AI RMF and ISO/IEC 42001.
  • Familiarity with NIST and ISO/IEC 27001 security frameworks and practices.
  • Experience translating complex technical security issues into clear recommendations for technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Strong communication, collaboration, prioritization, and problem-solving skills.
Helpful Experience
  • Familiarity with AI productivity and development tools such as Claude, GitHub Copilot, or similar platforms.
  • Experience securing MCPs or AI-agent architectures.
  • Experience with AI/model registries, AI inventories, or AI-BOM initiatives.
  • Experience with security platforms and tools such as Checkmarx, Veracode, Snyk, or comparable solutions.
  • CISSP or another relevant security certification is preferred. Additional certifications such as CSSLP, CCSP, or CISM are a plus.
