About the role

  • Rithum is embedding AI into every corner of how it operates - and security is no exception.

Responsibilities

  • Implement preventive, default-on security controls across cloud and enterprise environments, codified as policy- and infrastructure-as-code so security is enforced by design, including controls that govern how AI tools and models may be used.
  • Implement and enforce identity and access controls to an agreed standard, including access boundaries for AI systems and non-human/agent identities by partnering with Platform Engineering and IT to align tooling and policy to the architecture.
  • Support third-party and vendor risk assessments, with a focus on vendors who process data through AI pipelines.
  • Automate repetitive security workflows (evidence collection, access reviews, alert enrichment) and build or operate AI-assisted security agents - with human-in-the-loop approval gates, least-privilege credentials, and explicit attention to each agent's own blast radius.
  • Rithum™ is the world's most trusted commerce network, accelerating how brands, suppliers, and retailers work together to deliver seamless e-commerce experiences.
  • As an AI-first organization, Rithum expects employees across all roles to leverage AI and technology to improve efficiency, streamline workflows, and create scalable ways of working.
  • designing guardrails for AI-powered products, building automated security tooling, designing security controls and monitoring for an AI-First workforce, helping every team at Rithum move fast without creating risk they cannot see.
  • You spend as much time building and automating as you do reviewing, turning a repeating control into infrastructure-as-code, a manual review into a workflow, and a vague AI risk into a concrete, enforced guardrails.
  • Culture and team-building activities
  • Partner with the leading brands and retailers.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of security engineering experience with demonstrated AI/ML security depth (prompt injection, model supply chain, adversarial inputs, RAG).
  • Experience using AI tools (ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude, etc.) and LLM frameworks and APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, LangChain, or similar) to accelerate and elevate your work.
  • Hands-on identity and access expertise across modern enterprise and cloud identity stacks, including access models for AI systems and non-human identities.
  • Cloud security expertise: AWS Solutions Architect / Security Specialty or equivalent demonstrated expertise, including multi-account governance, preventive guardrails, and policy-as-code.
  • Working knowledge of SOC 2 and/or ISO 27001 control frameworks.
  • You work autonomously, balancing research with fast-paced delivery, and collaborating closely with Platform Engineering, IT, Security Champions, and external auditors.
  • Minimum Qualifications
  • Infrastructure and policy-as-code (e.g. Terraform, OPA/Rego) and proficiency in a scripting language for automation (Python preferred).
  • Application security (OWASP Top 10 and the OWASP LLM/GenAI Top 10, secure SDLC) and threat-modelling methodologies (STRIDE, PASTA, or equivalent). Practical experience building or operating AI agents, and integrating security tooling (SIEM, CSPM, SAST/DAST/SCA) so it surfaces action rather than raw alerts.
