## About the Role

10+ years of progressive experience designing and securing enterprise infrastructure, cloud platforms, networks, identity systems, and distributed environments.

Experience leading enterprise cybersecurity architecture initiatives within a large, complex enterprise environment.

Extensive experience designing and implementing solutions involving IAM, PAM, IGA, Conditional Access, micro segmentation, ZTNA, SASE/SSE, PKI, EDR/XDR, SIEM, exposure management, and data protection technologies.

Strong Microsoft and Azure security experience, including familiarity with technologies such as Entra ID, Defender, Sentinel, Intune, Azure Firewall, Defender for Cloud, and Purview.

Deep understanding of Zero Trust Architecture, enterprise networking, cloud security, identity security, and secure connectivity across hybrid or multi-cloud environments.

Experience developing security architectures for modern application platforms, including secure software development, Develops, Infrastructure-as-Code, software supply chain security, and cloud-native application security.

Ability to create enterprise security standards, reference architectures, technical roadmaps, and architectural documentation.

Excellent communication skills with the ability to explain complex cybersecurity concepts to both technical teams and executive leadership.

Enterprise industry experience is strongly preferred over a career primarily focused on short-term consulting engagements.

These requirements align with the formal JD's emphasis on Zero Trust, Microsoft security technologies, enterprise networking, cloud and identity security, modern application security, and the ability to influence architecture decisions across multiple engineering disciplines.
