About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Contributes to the development of complex security-centric solution architectures across business, infrastructure, application, and cloud environments.
Identifies and evaluates alternative security architectures and analyzes trade-offs in risk reduction, cost, performance, and scalability.
Produces specifications for cloud or on-premises components with an emphasis on security controls, identity and access management, encryption standards, network segmentation, and compliance requirements.
Designs components using modelling techniques that incorporate security-by-design principles, Zero Trust concepts, and industry frameworks (e.g., NIST CSF, ISO 27001).
Creates multiple design views for stakeholder concerns, including non-functional security requirements, and develops security proof-of-concepts (POCs).
Supports change programs with technical planning aligned to enterprise security architecture standards and regulatory requirements.
Ensures solutions meet data protection and cybersecurity obligations (GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC 2).
Leads understanding of client security requirements, gathers and analyzes threat/risk data, and provides expert remediation guidance.
Advises clients on security modernization, cloud security, secure application design, and emerging cybersecurity practices.
Recommends new security services and contributes to security go-to-market offerings.
Provides coaching and mentoring to less experienced architects and engineers.
Design and deliver secure architectures for AI-driven and agentic systems (LLMs, RAG, autonomous agents), addressing emerging risks such as prompt injection, data poisoning, and model/data leakage.
Define and implement security controls across the AI lifecycle (data, model, inference, orchestration), embedding governance, identity, and policy into LLMOps/MLOps pipelines.
Advise clients on securing human-to-agent and agent-to-agent interactions, applying zero trust principles and ensuring auditability, compliance, and safe autonomous behavior in production environments.
