## About this role.

We provide an unmatched platform for brands and retailers, enabling them to accelerate growth, optimize operations across channels, scale product offerings and enhance margins.

Today, more than 40,000 companies trust Rithum to grow their business across hundreds of channels, representing over $50 billion in annual GMV. Using our commerce, marketing, and delivery solutions, our customers create optimized consumer shopping journeys from beginning to end.

Overview

Rithum expects employees across all roles to leverage AI and technology to improve efficiency, streamline workflows, and create scalable ways of working.

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

As a Staff Information Security Engineer, you own the intersection of AI adoption and information security: 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. This is not a typical security role. 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. You work autonomously, balancing research with fast-paced delivery, and collaborating closely with Platform Engineering, IT, Security Champions, and external auditors.

Responsibilities

* Act as the bridge between architectural intent and operational reality; mediate conflicts between security requirements and feasible implementation, propose compensating controls where gaps exist and help register, track and remediate residual risks.
* 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.
* Assist in maintaining the InfoSec risk register; track emerging threats and translate them into actionable guidance for engineering teams.
* 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.
* Integrate security tooling (SIEM, CSPM, DAST/SAST, vulnerability scanners) with LLM layers to surface actionable insight and automated responses.
* Define and enforce security requirements for AI-powered features: model access controls, prompt-injection mitigations, output validation, and data-handling boundaries.
* Conduct threat modelling on agentic and LLM-based systems, accounting for novel attack surfaces such as tool misuse, indirect prompt injection, and supply chain risk.

Qualifications

Minimum Qualifications

* 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.
* Infrastructure and policy-as-code (e.g. Terraform, OPA/Rego) and proficiency in a scripting language for automation (Python preferred).
* Cloud security expertise: AWS Solutions Architect / Security Specialty or equivalent demonstrated expertise, including multi-account governance, preventive guardrails, and policy-as-code.
* 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.
* Working knowledge of SOC 2 and/or ISO 27001 control frameworks.

Preferred Qualifications

* Experience building or operating AI agents in a production environment.
* Awareness of privacy regulation (GDPR/CCPA) as it touches AI including privacy-by-design and DPIAs.
* Red teaming or adversarial ML research backgrounds.
* Experience implementing privileged-access, key-management, posture-management, or data-protection programs.
* Experience with EDR, CASB, DLP, Security automation and SAST, DAST, IAST and SCA tools.
* Cloud Architecture or Security certifications (CCSK, TAISE, AWS).

Travel Required
Up to 10%

Sample interview questionsHow would you design security guardrails for an internal LLM application that can access company documents?I would begin with data classification, approved-use cases, and a threat model covering prompt injection, excessive data exposure, tool misuse, and identity abuse. I would enforce least-privilege retrieval permissions, document-level authorization, input/output filtering, audit logging, and human approval for sensitive actions. I would also establish continuous red-team testing and measurable control effectiveness metrics.

Describe how you would automate access reviews for human and non-human identities.

I would inventory identities and their entitlements from IAM, cloud, SaaS, and service-account systems, then normalize ownership, privilege level, and last-use data. A workflow would route periodic certifications to accountable owners, automatically revoke stale or unapproved access, and create exceptions with expiration dates. All actions would be logged for audit evidence and reviewed through risk-based reporting.

What controls would you use to reduce prompt-injection risk in an AI agent with tool access?

I would separate untrusted content from system instructions, constrain tool permissions with scoped credentials, validate tool arguments against strict schemas, and require approval gates for consequential actions. The agent should treat retrieved data as content rather than instructions, operate with a limited action allowlist, and log its reasoning inputs and tool calls. I would test direct and indirect injection scenarios continuously before and after release.

How do you balance a security requirement that engineering considers impractical?

I first clarify the underlying risk, affected assets, and required assurance level rather than defending a control implementation by default. I work with engineering to identify feasible alternatives, such as compensating monitoring, segmented rollout, tighter identity boundaries, or time-limited exceptions. I document the residual risk, accountable owner, expiration date, and remediation plan so the decision is transparent and measurable.

How would you integrate SIEM, CSPM, and application-security findings into an actionable workflow?

I would normalize findings into a common risk model using asset criticality, exploitability, identity exposure, internet reachability, and business context. Automation would deduplicate alerts, enrich them with ownership and remediation guidance, and open prioritized tickets with SLAs. For well-understood low-risk cases, I would automate containment or remediation; high-impact actions would use human-in-the-loop approval.
