- Continuous Learning: You are passionate about staying ahead of security trends, evolving industry practices, and developing new areas of technical expertise

- Observability & Incident Response: Hands-on experience with monitoring/alerting tools and structured incident response processes
- Data Security: Exposure to DLP, encryption, tokenization, or voice/data privacy protections
- AI Security: Ability to integrate AI/ML observability into security monitoring — detecting anomalies in model behavior or misuse of generative AI systems
- Bonus: Experience aligning AI security practices with emerging frameworks and standards (e.g., NIST AI Risk Management Framework, ISO/IEC 42001 for AI management systems, EU AI Act readiness)
