These areas include cloud security, identity management, application security, data protection, network security, infrastructure security, endpoint security and cryptography. * Demonstrated depth in at least two enterprise security domains, with the ability to lead complex architecture decisions and provide authoritative security guidance. * Experience in designing security architectures for enterprises. This includes making frameworks. It also involves creating reference architecture. Additionally, it includes setting standards, defining requirements, and developing reusable patterns. * Experience in evaluating current capabilities. Defining target states. Identifying maturity gaps. Developing security strategies that align with business priorities and create roadmaps for implementation. * Strong understanding of Zero Trust and modern identity architectures, including SSO, federation, Conditional Access, RBAC, privileged access, and non-human identities. * A robust background in cloud security is required. Experience with Microsoft Azure is preferred. Candidates should know about identity, networking, logging, encryption, workload protection, and landing-zone concepts. * Working knowledge of secure software development, DevSecOps, APIs, Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD security, containers, and modern application architectures. * Proficient in data security and privacy. This includes classification, encryption, data loss prevention (DLP), access control, retention, data transfer, and regulatory requirements. * Experience in leading threat modeling. This includes governance of architecture and design reviews. It also involves managing exceptions, conducting risk assessments, and validating controls. * Experience applying recognized security frameworks and standards such as NIST, ISO, CIS Controls, MITRE ATT&CK, SABSA, or equivalent frameworks. * Strong communication and influencing skills, with the ability to translate technical risk into executive-level insights and recommendations. * Bachelor's degree in computer science, Cybersecurity, Information Technology, Engineering, or an equivalent combination of education and professional experience; relevant security or architecture certifications are preferred., * Experience securing AI-enabled applications, copilots, agents, RAG solutions, model integrations, or enterprise AI platforms. * Familiarity with established AI security, risk management, and governance practices, including how they apply to enterprise technology environments. * Understanding of AI-related risks such as prompt injection, data disclosure, insecure tool access, shadow AI, and over-permissive agent identities. * Experience integrating AI security requirements into architecture reviews, platform governance, threat modeling, monitoring, and incident response. * Experience with Microsoft Azure security capabilities, including Entra ID, Defender for Cloud, Sentinel, Azure Policy, Key Vault, and landing zones. * Experience with major enterprise security technologies across cloud, network, identity, data protection, endpoint, and Security Operations domains. ## Description * Define and advance enterprise security architecture strategies, priorities, and roadmaps across multiple security domains. * Maintain the Enterprise Security Framework, reference architectures, standards, requirements, and reusable patterns. * Provide architecture leadership across cloud, identity, application, data, network, infrastructure, endpoint, cryptography, third-party, and emerging technology domains. * Translate business use cases and technology strategies into clear, practical, and risk-based security requirements. * Lead security architecture reviews and provide timely guidance to project, product, engineering, platform, and business teams. * Create designs for the current state and the desired future state. These designs should show current capabilities, gaps in maturity, investments needed, and priorities for implementation. * Partner across technology and security teams to assess capability gaps, align remediation plans, and integrate security controls into enterprise architecture. * Lead threat modeling. Assess any deviations or exceptions in architecture. Provide risk-based recommendations to support governance, review, and approval processes * Evaluate third-party technologies, SaaS platforms, cloud services, and emerging capabilities using a risk-based approach and provide clear recommendations to leadership. * Make sure the architecture meets the needs for logging, monitoring, and detection. It must also support incident response, fortitude, and recovery capabilities. * Support secure adoption of AI-enabled applications, platforms, and agents where applicable. * Enable teams by providing documentation. Share reusable patterns and offer guidance on architecture. Provide coaching and communication with executives. ## Related Videos - [The New AI Security Stack: Observe, Detect, Protect](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100302-the-new-ai-security-stack-observe-detect-protect) - [Crypto-secure Data Management with In-Database Blockchain](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/632-crypto-secure-data-management-with-in-database-blockchain) - [Best Practices for Using GitHub Secrets](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1214-best-practices-for-using-github-secrets) - [DevSecOps: Injecting Security into Mobile CI/CD Pipelines](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/273-devsecops-injecting-security-into-mobile-ci-cd-pipelines) - [Security Pitfalls for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/726-security-pitfalls-for-software-engineers) - [DevSecOps: Security in DevOps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/36-devsecops-security-in-devops) ## Related Articles - [Events like RSAC Get You CISOs.
