It's a new day with a new opportunity at 8am! About the role: The AI Security Analyst is a hybrid role combining security operations monitoring with AI-specific risk management and governance support. The role focuses on identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks associated with AI use, particularly generative AI, LLMs, and agentic systems, across internal tools and customer-facing platforms, while contributing to traditional security monitoring.

About you: * 3+ years in security operations, security analysis, or GRC with hands-on technical exposure. * Working understanding of LLM-specific threat classes (OWASP LLM Top 10) and AI risk frameworks (NIST AI RMF). * Ability to read logs, write basic queries and scripts, and investigate independently. * Strong written English and documentation discipline; comfortable in a distributed team. * Demonstrated experience leveraging AI tools and technologies to improve workflows, enhance decision-making, or drive innovation. * This position is preferably based in Brno, Czech Republic Bonus points: * Experience monitoring or governing agentic AI systems, MCP integrations, or AI developer tooling. * Fintech, legal-tech, or other regulated-industry background.
