About the Role

Sarvam AI is building foundational AI infrastructure. We're looking for a hands-on security leader who brings the rigor, threat modeling discipline, and depth of BFSI/Fintech security — and applies it to AI infrastructure, platforms, and products.

You will own security strategy, product security, and security research while staying deeply technical and close to the systems you're securing. This is not an audit management role — you'll be designing architectures, finding vulnerabilities, and shipping fixes.

What You'll Do

Security Strategy & Architecture

• Define and evolve Sarvam AI's end-to-end security strategy

• Design secure architectures for Sarvam's products and API platform

• Apply BFSI-grade threat modeling and controls to AI infrastructure

• Make pragmatic risk decisions that balance research velocity with security

Product & Application Security

• Lead threat modeling for AI products, APIs, and data systems

• Own application and API security, including auth, access control, and data isolation

• Drive vulnerability discovery, remediation, and verification

Systems & Processes

• Set up systems and processes to proactively find and validate vulnerabilities across products and infrastructure

• Perform targeted adversarial testing and red-teaming

• Research emerging threats relevant to AI systems and enterprise use cases

Cloud & DevSecOps

• Secure cloud infrastructure, IAM, and secrets management

• Integrate security checks into CI/CD pipelines without slowing teams down

• Improve detection and response readiness

What We're Looking For

• Hands-on experience securing enterprise and BFSI/Fintech infrastructure

• Participated in CTFs across web, crypto, pwn, or mixed categories

• Participated in bug bounty programs, especially private programs for fintech, cloud, or infrastructure companies
