Job FocusProtect transit passengers and infrastructureScreen airline passengers and luggage

Transit Security personnel focus on safeguarding public transit systems like subways and buses, often working for transit agencies. Transportation Security Officers (TSOs) work primarily at airports, screening airline passengers and luggage for security threats. While both roles involve security and may require similar credentials, their work environments and specific duties differ significantly.

What is a transit security officer?

Transit Security officers are professionals responsible for ensuring the safety and security of passengers, employees, and property within public transportation systems, such as buses, trains, and subways. Their duties include patrolling transit areas, monitoring surveillance equipment, responding to incidents, and enforcing rules and regulations. They work closely with law enforcement agencies to prevent crime, manage emergencies, and assist with investigations when necessary. Transit Security officers help create a safe and secure environment for everyone using public transit.

How does a transit security officer typically collaborate with other staff and law enforcement agencies during incidents?

Transit Security officers work closely with transit operators, supervisors, and local law enforcement agencies to ensure passenger and staff safety. During incidents, they are often the first responders, responsible for assessing the situation, providing immediate assistance, and communicating accurate information to the appropriate authorities. Effective teamwork and clear communication are essential, as officers may coordinate evacuation procedures, share surveillance data, or assist police in investigations. This collaborative approach ensures prompt resolution of security issues and maintains a safe transit environment.

About this Position
The Cybersecurity Security Architect serves a significant role in strategic planning, product design, and solution testing.

Responsibilities & Qualifications
Minimum requirements
  • Defining overarching security reference architectures, patterns, standards, and blueprints that align with business objectives while incorporating secure-by-design strategies.
  • Design controls to mitigate AI-specific risks: prompt injection, data poisoning, model inversion/extraction, adversarial attacks, hallucination exploitation, supply-chain attacks on models/datasets, and agentic/multi-agent system vulnerabilities.
  • Define secure patterns for generative AI deployments including RAG architecture, vector databases, LLM gateways, output filtering, guardrails, red-teaming processes, and responsible AI governance.
  • Leverage threat modeling frameworks such as MITRE ATLAS, OWASP, NIST AI RMF, etc.
  • Architect and support enterprise data security controls: classification, encryption (at-rest, in-transit, in-use), data loss preventions (DLP), data security posture management (DSPM), access governance, and tokenization.
  • Secure big data / analytics environments (data lakes, warehouses, feature stores, model registries) and ensure lineage, provenance, and integrity in data use.
  • Collaborate with data engineering teams to embed privacy-preserving techniques (differential privacy, federated learning, secure multi-party computation) where appropriate.
  • Command the ability to properly assess security architecture against regulatory requirements and frameworks.

Preferred requirements
  • This position would require 10 years of security architecture or senior security engineering experience as previously described.
  • 3+ years of direct experience securing AI/MK/GenAI systems, data science platforms, or large-scale data environments
  • CISSP, CCSP, and CISM highly preferred
  • NIST Cybersecurity Framework practical experience is required
  • SABSA or TOGAF framework experience is also preferred.
  • Deep knowledge of modern cloud security (Azure, AWS, GCP), container/kubernetes security, and zero-trust principles.
  • Strong understanding of AI/ML concepts: model lifecycle, training/inference pipelines, embeddings, RAG, agents, fine-tuning, and common attack vectors.
  • Proven track record performing threat modeling and risk assessments for both traditional systems and AI workloads.
  • This person would specifically also understand how to deploy and manage security tech such as DLP (Data Loss Prevention), SIEM systems (e.g., Splunk, ELK), tokenization/masking, and compliance frameworks (GDPR, HIPAA, SOC 2).
  • This person would specifically also understand how to lead Incident Response activities such as monitoring for anomalies, investigating breaches, and lead recovery efforts while minimizing data exposure.
  • If requested, provide some indirect or matrix supervisory responsibility as a project manager, although this does not mean formal supervision of team members (e.g., the position doesn't complete performance evaluations, hire or terminate)
