Monitor the threat landscape and evaluate how new attack techniques may affect EDC's environment.
Embed as a security partner within delivery squads and agile teams, providing hands-on guidance.
Conduct security reviews of project documentation, architecture diagrams, code changes, and configuration decisions.
Champion secure-by-design patterns, DevSecOps practices, and shift-left security thinking.
Develop and maintain security standards, guidelines, and reusable patterns.
Act as a trusted advisor to product and engineering stakeholders, translating security risks into business language.
Assess and address security risks specific to AI/ML workloads.
Support EDC’s evolving approach to AI security through risk assessments, security reviews, and governance input.
Apply AI and ML tools to enhance security operations.
Explore and evaluate AI-assisted security tooling.
Keep pace with industry trends and emerging technologies.
Collaborate across the Digital & Technology Solutions group and with business stakeholders.
Communicate complex security concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Contribute to KPI and metrics development to track and demonstrate improvements in security posture.
Support continuous improvement initiatives and contribute to the evolution of the EIS team's operating model and security program.
