About the RoleSarvam 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.
