Location: Remote, US

Position Summary:

TrendAI is seeking a Principal Solutions Architect, AI to serve as the subject matter expert (SME) for our full AI Security portfolio. This individual owns the technical narrative and architecture strategy across three pillars - AI Infrastructure Security, AI Application Security, and AI Public-Facing Application Security - and works cross-functionally with sales, the Solutions Engineering bench, product management, and customers to drive technical wins and shape our AI security positioning in the market.

This is a high-visibility, field-facing architecture role for someone equally comfortable in a whiteboard session with a CISO and a hands-on PoC with an AI/ML engineering team.

Responsibilities:

• Act as the primary technical SME for AI Security across the US SE organization, supporting strategic opportunities end-to-end.

• Architect and present solutions across the three AI security domains:

  • AI Infrastructure Security - securing model training/serving pipelines, GPU and cloud AI workloads, MLOps toolchains, and the underlying compute/data infrastructure.

  • AI Application Security - securing LLM-integrated applications, RAG pipelines, and agentic workflows against risks such as prompt injection, data poisoning, model theft, and insecure plugin/tool use.

  • AI Public Application Security - securing customer-facing AI applications and APIs (chatbots, copilots, public inference endpoints) against exposure, abuse, and data leakage.

• Lead technical discovery, solution architecture, and proof-of-concept (PoC) engagements for top AI security opportunities.

• Build and maintain reference architectures, demo environments, and reusable enablement content for the SE bench.

• Deliver executive and technical-depth presentations to CISOs, security architects, and AI/ML engineering leaders.

• Partner with Product Management to channel field and customer feedback into the AI security roadmap.

• Track the competitive AI security landscape and maintain up-to-date positioning and battlecards.

• Mentor and upskill SEs/SAs on AI security concepts, demo delivery, and objection handling.

• Represent TrendAI externally at industry events, webinars, and analyst briefings on AI security.

Qualifications:

• 8+ years in security architecture, solutions engineering, or a related pre-sales/technical role.

• Strong working knowledge of AI/ML system architecture, including model training/serving infrastructure, MLOps pipelines, and cloud AI services (AWS Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, GCP Vertex AI, etc.).

• Hands-on understanding of LLM application security risks (e.g., OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications) - prompt injection, jailbreaks, data poisoning, model extraction/theft.

• Experience securing public-facing applications and APIs (API security, WAF, exposure management).

• Familiarity with cloud security posture management (CSPM), CNAPP, or equivalent cloud-native security tooling.

• Excellent executive presentation, communication, and technical storytelling skills.

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with Trend Vision One or a comparable XDR/CNAPP platform.

• Security certifications (CISSP, GIAC, or cloud-specific security certifications).

• Experience designing and running technical PoC/demo environments for AI security use cases.

• Familiarity with agentic AI frameworks and protocols (LangChain, AutoGen, MCP, etc.).

• Prior experience in a customer-facing solutions architecture or field CTO role.
