Deloitte is seeking a Cyber - AI Cloud Security Engineer, Senior Consultant (Cincinnati, OH, onsite) to help design, build, and secure next-generation AI-enabled products, platforms, and cloud environments. The role centers on AI security architecture, secure AI development, and engineering capabilities that support AI-enabled vulnerability discovery and remediation.
Responsibilities
- Design secure architectures for generative AI, agentic AI, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), model-serving, and AI-enabled enterprise applications by defining security boundaries and applying AI Zero Trust controls across models, agents, tools, application programming interfaces (APIs), data, cloud workloads, development pipelines, and runtime environments.
- Embed security across the AI software development lifecycle using threat modeling, security gates, model and prompt versioning, evaluation datasets, approval workflows, release criteria, and testing for prompt injection, data leakage, unsafe tool use, model abuse, and policy violations.
- Design and implement secure AI workloads across Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and hybrid environments, including cloud landing zones, network isolation, private connectivity, logging, encryption and key management, data protection, containers, serverless workloads, Kubernetes, and infrastructure-as-code controls.
- Build AI-assisted capabilities to identify, analyze, prioritize, test, and remediate vulnerabilities across code, applications, APIs, cloud configurations, infrastructure, dependencies, containers, and AI workloads, including human approval and validation before high-impact remediation is deployed.
- Develop production AI security applications and platforms using user experiences, APIs, backend services, microservices, event-driven workflows, RAG, model integrations, and observability, along with unit, integration, end-to-end, performance, security, and AI evaluation testing.
- Lead client discovery activities such as architecture sessions, technical workshops, design reviews, deployment, and operational handoff; create reusable reference architectures, technical standards, playbooks, and accelerators; mentor engineers and contribute to practice development.
Requirements
- Ability to work independently and collaborate as part of a team.
- Effective written and verbal communication skills.
- Meticulous attention to detail and quality of work product.
- Ability to build and sustain professional relationships.
- Ability to lead projects or workstreams.
