Description
Join a Challenger
At EQ, we're remaking banking so every Canadian gets ahead, every day. Serving nearly 4 million Canadians from coast to coast, we offer a wide variety of financial services from banking and lending, to trust and credit union solutions.
We've been at this since 1970, challenging the conventions of traditional banking with smarter, faster, and more connected financial experiences.
What's kept us moving? The people behind it all: challengers who ask better questions, push back on old assumptions, and look for a better way forward.
If you're driven to help reshape how banking works for Canadians and the businesses that power our economy, this could be your next big opportunity.
We can’t wait to get to know you!
This role leads the design, implementation, and operation of security controls for Artificial Intelligence (AI), generative AI, machine learning, AI agents, copilots, automation platforms, agentic AI platforms, orchestration frameworks, model providers, and the cloud services that support them.
Reporting to the Senior Director, Cyber Security Engineering & Operations and working as a fully dedicated, embedded security partner to the AI Centre of Enablement and the Enterprise Technology, Data & AI organization, the incumbent provides senior technical leadership to ensure AI solutions are delivered securely and in line with enterprise security standards and regulatory expectations.
The incumbent develops reusable security patterns, guardrails, control implementations, automation, and detection capabilities that support enterprise AI adoption while protecting the bank from data leakage, model misuse, insecure integrations, excessive permissions, unsafe automation, and unapproved use of AI technologies. The role enables teams through practical, reusable guardrails and secure patterns rather than relying only on review and enforcement. This is a senior individual contributor role with no direct reports.
