• Execute High-Impact Demos: Build and deliver compelling demonstrations of inference-layer protection, model red-teaming, and agent defense that prove value against FS success criteria like fraud reduction and compliance.
• Navigate Risk & Compliance: Serve as a domain expert on AI/model risk, operational resilience, and regulatory frameworks, leading technical responses for RFIs/RFPs and security questionnaires.
• Influence the Product Roadmap: Work cross-functionally with Engineering and Product teams to relay field feedback from FS customers, ensuring our AI security portfolio evolves with industry-specific needs.
• Ensure Customer Success: Support the onboarding of new wins, providing clear architectural documentation and best-practice handovers to the Customer Success team.

• Practical familiarity with FS reference architectures, risk management, and compliance topics such as AML/KYC and data privacy
• The ability to translate complex AI security challenges into simple, actionable narratives for both technical teams and non-technical executives
