Job description
- Translate high-level business strategic objectives and goals into Enterprise IT requirements and conceptual designs.
- Develop and support comprehensive solutions that meet requirements and align with HPE’s global network security and microsegmentation strategy.
- Develop and maintain a multi-year strategic network and security architecture roadmap, incorporating Zero Trust and segmentation-driven security models.
-
Lead end-to-end network and security architecture across global platforms ensuring secure, high-performing, fault-tolerant, and resilient environments. Microsegmentation & Zero Trust Responsibilities:
- Architect and implement microsegmentation strategies across data center, campus, and cloud environments to limit lateral movement and enforce least-privilege access.
- Design and operationalize Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) principles, integrating identity, application, and network-based policy enforcement.
- Collaborate with application owners to discover, validate, and map application dependencies to enable policy-driven segmentation.
- Define and enforce granular security policies using label/tag-based segmentation approaches across hybrid environments.
- Integrate microsegmentation with firewalls, SIEM, IAM, EDR/XDR, and cloud-native controls for unified policy enforcement.
- Lead adoption of microsegmentation platforms (e.g, Guardicore/Akamai Segmentation).
-
Develop segmentation governance models, policy lifecycle management, and compliance alignment (CIS/NIST/Zero Trust frameworks). Core Network Security Responsibilities:
- Participate in network security design reviews and ensure all implementations meet enterprise security standards.
- Analyze business requirements to design and implement security across data centers, campus networks, and hybrid environments.
- Provide ongoing risk metrics, control effectiveness tracking, and security posture reporting.
