  • Integrate emerging agentic frameworks and LLM-based orchestration tools (e.g., LangChain, Semantic Kernel, AutoGen, OpenAgents) to power stateful AI agents with access to security tools, APIs, and third-party systems

  • Stay current with emerging AI security threats, research cutting-edge AI safety techniques, and contribute to the development of industry-leading AI security standards
