AI Engineer · Oct 11, 2026 · Industry Trends

Snyk is formalizing an 'AI Security Engineer' role with a six-module foundations curriculum.

“We believe that there's this emerging role. It might even be what you put in as your title sometime — the AI security engineer.”

Snyk developer advocate Micah Silverman led a two-hour workshop at AI Engineer introducing the 'AI Security Engineer Foundations' curriculum, positioning AI security engineer as a formalized emerging role. The session covers OWASP Top 10 for LLMs across six modules. The signal is modest — this is practitioner education, not a product launch — but it reflects growing industry demand for dedicated AI security specialists.
