Mindgard is a London-based startup specializing in AI security. Our mission is to secure the future of AI Applications against cyber attacks. We've spun out from a leading UK university after a decade of R&D and are among the first few companies globally to offer solutions to this rapidly growing problem.

Mindgard's automated AI red teaming product helps security testers test for, identify, and remediate vulnerabilities in AI applications.

Mindgard probes AI applications and uses a set of techniques, including Predictive AI, LLMs, and other algorithms to identify security-relevant attributes within application responses.

We're seeking an experienced AI Red Teamer who will be responsible for uncovering security vulnerabilities within AI. You will identify vulnerabilities that our customers care about, demonstrate successful cyber attacks, and report your findings to internal and external stakeholders.

Roles & Responsibilities

In this role you will:

  1. Red team and penetration test AI models, systems, and applications.
  2. Work with customers, AI providers, and the open-source community to disclose new security issues and help secure their AI solutions.
  3. Collaborate with engineering and research to design, implement, and report attacks against AI models and applications.
  4. Generate company awareness via regular engagement with the security community through publishing articles, releasing publicly available tools, and presentations.
  5. Stay up to date on the latest AI security research, trends, and attack techniques.
  6. Contribute to the development of internal tools, our AI red teaming product, and open-source projects.


Skills & Experience

We are looking for:

  1. Strong experience in red teaming and penetration testing.
  2. Hands-on experience and understanding of attack techniques specific to AI applications (prompt injection, jailbreaking, model extraction, etc.).
  3. Familiarity with AI red teaming tools and LLM vulnerability scanners (PyRit, Garak, etc.), as well as established pentesting tools (Burp Suite, Nessus, etc.).
  4. Able to communicate with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  5. Excellent problem-solving skills and creativity to find and anticipate potential attack vectors against AI applications.


Before you go, we want you to know!

Studies have shown that some groups of people are less likely to apply to a role unless they meet 100% of the job requirements. Whoever you are, if you don't meet all of the above criteria, but you think you'd be a great addition to Mindgard, we encourage you to apply as you might just be the candidate we hire. Our people are our strongest asset and the unique skills and perspectives people bring to the team are the driving force of our success. As an equal opportunity employer, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected attribute. Our commitment is to provide equal opportunities, an inclusive work environment, and fairness for everyone.#J-18808-Ljbffr

Where to Advertise Cyber Security Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising cyber security jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. The candidate pool is small, heavily vetted and in high demand across government, financial services, critical national infrastructure and the private sector simultaneously. Many of the strongest candidates hold active security clearances, are not actively job-searching through general platforms, and move primarily through specialist networks and trusted referrals. General job boards reach a broad audience but lack the specificity that security professionals expect. Specialist platforms, government-affiliated channels and cleared candidate networks each serve a different part of the market. This guide, published by CybersecurityJobs.tech, covers where to advertise cyber security roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.
