ADP is hiring a Director – Security AI & Innovation (Technical Leader)

 

Join ADP’s Global Security Organization (GSO) to transform the future of cybersecurity.
We’re on a mission to redefine how security programs operate — with intelligence, automation, and efficiency at the core. This newly created role will lead an exciting initiative to explore, implement, and scale innovative AI and Generative AI-driven capabilities across ADP’s security ecosystem.

As the Director of Security AI & Innovation Technical Leader, you will drive the use of advanced AI/ML technologies, including agentic and LLM-based frameworks, to enhance security operations, streamline decision-making, and unlock measurable business value. You’ll work closely with internal security and enterprise stakeholders to identify use cases, architect AI-enabled solutions that align with enterprise standards and define a long-term vision for intelligent security operations.

This is a hands-on leadership role driving thought leadership initially as an individual contributor with the potential to build a small, agile team. It’s ideal for a forward-thinking, technically skilled leader who thrives at the intersection of security, AI, and enterprise design.

 

What You’ll Do:

Collaborate with the Security AI & Innovation Product Manager in the development of the strategy, evaluation, and implementation of GenAI and AI/ML use cases across various security domains (e.g., product security testing, threat detection, incident response, fraud, governance, identity, and vulnerability management). Architect and design intelligent solutions in alignment with ADP’s enterprise architecture standards. Partner with cross-functional teams across security, GETS, enterprise platforms, and data/AI to pilot and operationalize innovative capabilities. Partner with the Security AI & Innovation Product Manager to create and maintain a roadmap of AI-driven security initiatives focused on efficiency, automation, and innovation. Define, track, and report KPIs, KRIs, and business value metrics to assess performance and impact of implemented solutions. Maintain a deep understanding of the rapidly evolving GenAI and security tech landscape, evaluating opportunities for strategic adoption. Evangelize a culture of innovation, collaboration, and AI-readiness across ADP’s security and enterprise teams.
