B.Sc. Computer Science Student Seeking Career Advice: Red Teaming or AI Security Engineering?

Hello everyone,

I am currently pursuing a B.Sc. (Hons.) in Computer Science and have recently decided on my career direction. I am interested in both Red Teaming and AI Security Engineering, but I am finding it difficult to choose between them.

My long-term goal is to build a strong and future-proof career in cybersecurity. I would like to know:

1. How does the career scope of a Red Teamer compare to that of an AI Security Engineer?

2. Which field is expected to have better opportunities and demand over the next 5–10 years?

3. Are Red Teaming roles likely to remain highly relevant as AI becomes more integrated into security operations?

4. If you were starting today, which path would you choose and why?

I would greatly appreciate insights from professionals who have experience in either of these fields.

Thank you.
