What You’ll Bring

• Deep security architecture expertise across cloud, SaaS, hybrid, on premises, and integrated technology environments.
• Proven ability to assess and design security controls across identity, connectivity, data protection, monitoring, resilience, and secure change.
• Able to translate architecture and assurance inputs into clear risk-based decisions, remediation priorities, and implementation guidance.
• Strong knowledge of security standards and compliance obligations relevant to enterprise and regulated environments.
• Experience in security architecture, cyber assurance, technology risk, or solution security review roles.
• Proven ability to perform design and architecture reviews for business applications, platforms, integrations, or infrastructure solutions.

• Relevant certifications desirable, such as CISSP, SABSA, TOGAF, ISO 27001, CCSP, CISM, or equivalent.

What You’ll Get
