The Role AIUC certifies AI agents based on security, safety, and reliability. As our founding security lead, you will own security at a business that is built upon trust. Our stakeholders are CISOs at Fortune 500 enterprises and the world's fastest-growing AI companies. They trust us to tell them whether their systems can be trusted and that requires internal credibility, controls, and posture. AIUC-1 as a standard is paving the way for agentic security, your expertise will directly influence what this means across the industry. Our security function will be what other companies will turn to as the playbook.
