What you'll do

• Security Architect - AI-Powered Security Engineering About the Team The security team at Meesho is like the Avengers to Meesho's S.H.I.E.L.D.
• When 5% of Indian households shop with us, it’s important to build resilient systems to manage millions of orders every day.
• We’ve done this, with zero downtime! We value speed over perfection, and see failures as opportunities to become better.
• By 2030, Meesho will be the world’s most trusted and secure digital ecosystem, operating on an AI-native, Zero-Trust, self-healing architecture.
• As we shift toward an era where autonomous agents generate and deploy code, we want to ensure our security scales seamlessly with engineering velocity.
• We place special emphasis on the continuous growth of each team member, fostering a strong 'Founder’s Mindset' that helps us move fast.
• About the Role We are looking for a highly technical, hands-on Security Architect (Individual Contributor) to guide and lead our AI-Powered Security Engineering charter.
• In this role, you will bridge the gap between conventional DevSecOps, infrastructure security, and the rapidly evolving landscape of AI.

Requirements

• Lead AI Security Architecture: Drive the technical roadmap and high-level design to continuously prevent, detect, and autonomously contain threats across our systems and AI agents
• Hands-on Prototyping POCs: Build proof-of-concepts for autonomous agent harnesses that automatically detect, analyze, and mitigate security vulnerabilities in real-time
• AI SDLC Optimization: Architect non-bypassable security guardrails across the SDLC for both developers and AI coding agents to ensure production systems are secured by default
• Red Teaming Adversarial Validation: Proactively execute adversarial testing by simulating real attack scenarios across APIs, AI systems, and infrastructure to validate defense mechanisms
• Protect AI Systems: Design deep technical defenses to protect all AI agents and experimental features from prompt injection, system misuse, manipulation, and unauthorized actions
• Zero-Trust Governance: Architect a Zero Trust Identity Control Plane that eliminates implicit trust, ensuring access for both humans and autonomous agents is time-bound, least-privileged, and continuously verified
