We're looking for a cybersecurity expert to advise on curriculum design for a US-accredited online university. This is a flexible, project-based consulting engagement - remote, part-time, and scoped to start short-term with the option to extend into an ongoing advisory relationship depending on fit.

Areas of expertise we need:

Cybersecurity risk management & governance (GRC frameworks, compliance, risk assessment)

Security architecture, cloud security, and identity & access management

AI/ML system security — securing AI pipelines, model and data security, agentic AI risk

Incident response, threat detection, and security operations

Policy, regulatory, and ethical dimensions of cybersecurity and AI governance

Qualifications:

Master's degree in cybersecurity, computer science, or a related field required; doctorate a strong plus

At least one recognized industry certification required (e.g., CISSP, CISM, CRISC, CCSP, or equivalent — certifications in AI security/governance are a plus)

Minimum 10 years of relevant professional experience in cybersecurity, security engineering, or security governance

Prior curriculum advisory is a plus but not required

  • Nature of the work:
  • A series of structured working sessions and/or written feedback - scope and cadence to be agreed based on engagement length. No classroom teaching involved.
  • Interested candidates: share your background, certifications, and relevant expertise, and we'll follow up with full project details.
