You will operate at the intersection of AI technologies, cloud architecture, and security engineering, ensuring AI workloads achieve Well-Architected outcomes across all six pillars — Operational Excellence, Security, Reliability, Performance Efficiency, Cost Optimization, and Sustainability — with depth in the Security pillar. You will influence both internal AWS teams and the broader builder community. In this role, you will define the long-term technical direction for AI security architectural guidance, translate emerging AI/ML security patterns into prescriptive and actionable best practices grounded in the Well-Architected pillars, and influence AWS service design to better serve AI builders who need to secure their workloads across the full AI lifecycle. Key job responsibilities - Set Strategic Technical Direction for AI Security: Define and own the long-term vision and roadmap for AI/ML security architectural guidance aligned to the AWS Well-Architected Guidance pillars, with deep focus on the Security pillar — including identity, access control, data protection, data residency and sovereignty, threat detection, and incident response for AI workloads. - AI Security & Generative AI Thought Leadership: Serve as the organization's principal technical authority on securing AI architectures — covering model security, data pipeline protection, prompt injection mitigation, model poisoning prevention, inference endpoint hardening, and secure agentic workflows. Provide guidance on security considerations for foundation models, RAG pipelines, fine-tuning, multi-agent orche
