This role is a hybrid role based out of our Wrocław, Poland.\nIn this role, you'll play a key role in securing Gainsight's AI-powered products, internal AI tooling, and customer trust by leading threat modeling and security design reviews for LLM-based features and agentic workflows and setting reference architectures and guardrails. This is a great opportunity for someone who thrives in a collaborative, fast-evolving AI-driven environment and enjoys working cross-functionally with teams like Engineering, Product, Data, IT, Legal, and GRC. The ideal candidate brings strong skills in AI/LLM security architecture, threat modeling, and cloud-native security.\n What You'll Do:\nYou will lead threat modeling and security design reviews for LLM-based features and agentic workflows, set reference architectures and guardrails for AI development and adoption, and assess the risks of third-party models and AI vendors.\n\nYou will also translate evolving AI risk guidance into practical engineering standards and advise leaders on tradeoffs. This role is for a hands-on senior security practitioner who can influence without authority and explain complex AI risks to both technical and executive audiences.\n\nThis role may require occasional travel (up to 10-25%) for team meetings, training, or company events.
