Are you ready to build the future of secure artificial intelligence — not just design it, but actually construct it? The AWS AWS GenAI Innovation and Delivery Center stands at the forefront of the AI revolution, where we're not just advising on technology — we're in the trenches, writing code, architecting systems, and co-building alongside the world's most innovative organizations. As businesses race to adopt transformative GenAI capabilities, security isn't just a checkbox — it's the foundation that makes innovation possible. In this role, you won't just advise on that foundation — you'll build it, hands-on, alongside the engineers and partners who are making GenAI real for customers. We're seeking a Senior GenAI Security Consultant to embed directly with our Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE) teams, serving as the hands-on security builder who ensures every line of code, every architecture decision, and every customer delivery meets AWS's security bar. This isn't a strategy role — it's a builder role. You'll be in the code, in the architecture, and in the room where it happens, co-creating secure GenAI solutions at the bleeding edge of what's possible. Why This Role Matters In the GenAI Innovation Center, our Forward Deployed Engineers are on the front lines of customer delivery — building, prototyping, and shipping GenAI solutions at speed. Security excellence at this layer can't be bolted on after the fact. It has to be built in from the start, by someone who can work at the same technical depth as the engineers they're partnering with. You'll be: • Embedding directly within FDE engagements as the hands-on security builder, co-developing secure GenAI solutions alongside internal engineers and external partners, • Holding and enforcing the AWS security bar at the implementation level, ensuring customer deliveries meet the highest standards of security by design, • Partnering with internal builders and third-party partners to architect and implement security controls that are production-ready, not just conceptually sound, • Translating complex security requirements into working code, reusable components, and deployable accelerators that teams can build on, • Serving as the technical security authority within engagements, making real-time architectural decisions that protect customer trust without slowing delivery The Innovation Opportunity This role puts you at the absolute tip of the spear of AWS GenAI delivery. You'll have the unique opportunity to: • Build security capabilities deployed immediately in production environments for some of the world's most demanding customers, • Collaborate with AWS's most talented Forward Deployed Engineers, shaping how security is implemented at the intersection of speed and rigor, • Develop reusable security patterns, reference architectures, and accelerators that scale your impact far beyond individual engagements, • Influence how AWS and its partners approach secure GenAI delivery from the ground up If you're energized by building things that no one has built before, if you're as comfortable in an IDE as you are in an architecture review, and if you want to be the person who ensures that the most exciting GenAI deployments in the world are also the most secure, this role is for you. Join us in building the future of secure AI innovation at AWS. Key job responsibilities Security for GenAI • Embed within FDE engagements as the hands-on security builder, co-developing and co-implementing secure GenAI solutions alongside internal engineers and partners, • Design and implement production-ready security architectures for enterprise GenAI deployments, with specific service configurations and working code, not just conceptual frameworks, • Build and deploy security controls specific to GenAI applications, including prompt injection defenses, data boundary enforcement, model access controls, and audit logging, • Develop reusable security accelerators, reference implementations, and deployable assets for AWS GenAI services that teams can adopt across engagements, • Conduct real-time security architecture reviews and implementation guidance within active customer engagements, ensuring security requirements are met at delivery GenAI for Security Innovation • Design and build innovative GenAI-powered security solutions within the context of customer engagements, demonstrating what's possible at the intersection of AI and security, • Develop proof-of-concepts and working prototypes for novel applications of GenAI in security operations, with a path to production deployment, • Build security-focused applications leveraging AWS GenAI services (Amazon Bedrock, Amazon GuardDuty, Amazon Security Lake, and others) that solve real customer problems, • Partner with internal builders and external partners to identify and implement GenAI-powered security capabilities that can be operationalized at scale, • Contribute to the development of new tools and methodologies that advance how GenAI is used to enhance security capabilities Thought Leadership & Industry Impact • Author technical content, reference architectures, and implementation guides that capture and scale the security patterns developed through customer engagements, • Present at AWS events and industry conferences on hands-on GenAI security implementation and forward-deployed security engineering, • Collaborate with AWS service teams to provide ground-level feedback on security features and capabilities based on real deployment experience, • Contribute to the development of security best practices and standards for GenAI implementation, grounded in practical delivery experience, • Share knowledge and mentor team members on secure implementation practices, elevating the security capability of the broader FDE community Success in this role requires exceptional technical depth, the ability to build and ship production-quality security solutions under the time pressures of active customer engagements, and the judgment to make sound security decisions in real time without sacrificing delivery velocity. A day in the life As a Sr GenAI Security Consultant embedded with Forward Deployed Engineers, you might start your day in a working session with an engineering team, reviewing and hardening the security architecture of a GenAI application mid-build. By mid-morning, you're writing and testing security controls for a customer's Amazon Bedrock deployment, collaborating directly with a partner engineer on implementation. After lunch, you're in a rapid architecture review for a new engagement, identifying security requirements that need to be built in from day one. By afternoon, you're contributing to a reusable security accelerator that will benefit the next ten engagements after this one. Your day might conclude with a technical deep-dive with an AWS service team, sharing what you've learned from the field. Throughout the day, you'll balance hands-on building, real-time security decision-making, and knowledge capture — always at the forefront of what secure GenAI delivery looks like in practice.

A rare and genuinely exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced maritime specialist-either a seasoned PSL/Knowledge Lawyer or a senior fee-earner seeking a strategic, relationship-driven role-to join one of the world's most respected names in the shipping sector. This is a firm whose brand carries real weight across the maritime world: a global leader with an exceptional reputation for technical excellence, deep sector knowledge, and long-standing ties with the industry's most significant players. Their international network is seamlessly integrated, and their shipping capability is widely regarded as among the strongest in the market. For a maritime lawyer who thrives on intellectual depth, collaboration, and shaping best practice, this is an outstanding platform. Sitting within a high-performing, well-regarded Knowledge Management function-not a back-office service-the Knowledge Counsel will play a central role in supporting the firm's Asset & Structured Finance group, with a particular focus on maritime work. You will help drive forward the firm's know-how strategy across its global offices, ensuring teams are equipped with cutting-edge legal, commercial, and market insight. The work is varied, strategic, and highly visible, with direct partner engagement and real influence on the evolution of the firm's offering. The remit spans horizon-scanning, developing and enhancing precedents, training, legal updates, and thought leadership, as well as supporting key sector initiatives. With the departing lawyer possessing deep technical expertise, the firm is keen to find someone who brings strong English-law maritime knowledge, sound judgement, and a clear ability to engage empathetically and collaboratively with senior stakeholders. Aviation experience is welcome but not essential; maritime expertise remains central. Candidates from in-house roles are welcome, though private practice experience is preferred to help ensure a smooth transition. Greek language skills or familiarity with the Greek market are a bonus, given the role's interaction with the Athens office, but are by no means required. The team is open-minded: whether you are an established Knowledge Counsel or a strong senior associate/PSL ready for a step up, technical excellence, communication skills, and the drive to contribute meaningfully to a high-calibre team will be key. For the right person, this is a rare chance to join a market-leading brand, working at the heart of one of the world's premier shipping practices, and to help shape the knowledge landscape of a truly international firm. To find out more about this role and others we are handling, please get in touch with David Von Dadelszen in complete confidence.
