David Campbell

David Campbell is Head of AI Security at Scale AI, where he leads efforts to secure and stress test the world’s most advanced AI systems. With nearly two decades in Silicon Valley’s startup ecosystem, David has built a career at the intersection of infrastructure, security, and cutting-edge AI. He pioneered one of the industry’s first large-scale AI Red Teaming platforms, now used to probe the limits of generative models and harden them against real-world threats. David’s expertise has been recognized at the highest levels, from briefing the U.S. Congress and U.K. Parliament to advising NATO and the White House on AI risk and resilience. He is a founding member of OWASP AIVSS, helping establish open standards for AI security, and has played a key role in collaborative exercises such as CISA’s JCDC.AI cyber table-top series on AI-driven threats. Prior to his work in AI security, David spent years shaping security and developer experience at Uber, DoorDash, and Nest Labs. His mission today is clear: align AI innovation with business resilience, so organizations can adopt transformative technologies without sacrificing trust or safety.
