Principal Engineer, AI Security

Your Impact at LILA

As a Principal Security Engineer focused on AI Security, you will define and drive the technical strategy for securing how AI is used across Lila's enterprise. You will operate as a senior individual contributor, partnering with IT and business teams to ensure safe and compliant adoption of AI tools and platforms.

While Lila builds AI-powered systems, this role is primarily focused on securing the use of third-party and internally deployed AI tools across the enterprise — ensuring sensitive data, intellectual property, and scientific workflows are protected as AI becomes deeply embedded in how work gets done.

• AI Gateway & Agentic Gateway Security — Design and implement AI gateway controls to manage and monitor access to external and internal AI systems. Secure agentic workflows by enforcing identity, authorization, tool-use constraints, and policy controls for autonomous or semi-autonomous agents.
• AI Red Teaming & Adversarial Testing —
