Lead design efforts for highly complex micro segmentation security solutions, including architectural patterns, documentation, and solution strategies
Partner with the Principal Engineer to assess incoming requirements, determine platform fit, and identify when segmentation is the appropriate solution or part of a hybrid approach
Conduct deep technical exploration to uncover implementation caveats, risks, or overlooked details before execution begins
Develop detailed test plans, rollout strategies, and validation procedures for segmentation deployments
Serve as the point of contact for micro segmentation design and solution leadership across internal teams
Collaborate with engineering teams to drive implementation of designs, providing guidance, clarification, and design-level oversight
Support automation and orchestration strategies for micro segmentation integrations with CMDB, ServiceNow, CI/CD, and API-driven workflows
Contribute to identifying new tools or features that strengthen the enterprise micro segmentation posture
Utilize subject matter expertise to ensure all designs align with corporate information security policies, standards, and Zero Trust principles
Provide technical leadership to peers and influence decision‑making across the micro segmentation program
