Senior Security Engineer

The Security Engineer is a strategic, architecture-focused role responsible for defining, governing, and advancing security across our modern platforms, cloud ecosystems, AI and agent-driven capabilities, integrations, and digital experiences.

This role drives the secure foundations that enable the organization to scale Power Platform, Dynamics 365 F&O, cloud-native solutions, cross-domain MCP capabilities, API ecosystems, and enterprise AI/LLM agents with confidence.

The Security Engineer acts as a critical partner across Architecture, Engineering, Cloud, Cyber Security, and Data & AI to ensure that every platform, agent, automation, and application is designed with the right guardrails, governance, controls, and operational readiness to keep the business safe while accelerating transformation., Security Architecture & Design

• Define and maintain security architecture standards for Power Platform, Dataverse, Dynamics 365 F&O, Azure, AWS, GCP, custom applications, and enterprise integrations.
• Apply Zero Trust and least-privilege principles to identity, access, API, MCP, connector, and automation patterns.
• Lead threat modeling and secure design reviews for applications, integrations, AI systems, and agent-based orchestration.
• Establish secure patterns for workload isolation, identity propagation, capability routing, and service segmentation.
• Govern APIM zero-trust enforcement across Power Apps, digital applications, orchestrator agents, API consumers, and MCP domain services.
• Define secure patterns for deterministic vs AI-driven capability invocation, ensuring uniform authorization and policy enforcement.

Data Protection & Encryption

• Define standards for encrypting data in transit and at rest across Azure, AWS, GCP, Dataverse, Dynamics 365 F&O, and AI pipelines.
• Drive data classification, PII/PHI protection, masking, tokenization, and synthetic data usage standards.
• Ensure secure handling, auditability, and retention of financial and SOX-relevant data.
• Govern secure data pathways for MCP orchestration and Power Platform integration flows.

AI, Agent & Automation Security

• Lead security risk assessments for LLMs, copilots, MCP domain agents, orchestrators, and AI-driven automation.
• Implement controls that prevent prompt injection, data leakage, unauthorized outputs, and unsafe system actions.
• Define safe tool/action boundaries for agents including permission scoping, output validation, and complete traceability of agent decisions.
• Establish secure RAG retrieval and document governance patterns including sanitization, access filtering, encryption, and contextual authorization.
• Ensure alignment with Responsible AI, AI governance policies, evaluation and red-teaming standards, and behavioral monitoring requirements.
• Govern security for solution-aware orchestration agents within Power Apps, including safe routing to domain MCPs and strict context boundaries.
• Ensure integrity of AI and agent telemetry, including structured risk-event logging, behavior traces, and auditable evaluation histories.
• Implement agent governance controls including agent quarantine, risk-event containment, and unsafe behavior mitigation.

Platform & Application Security

• Define secure design patterns for Dataverse environment separation, role-based access, and field-level protection.
• Oversee security architecture for Dynamics 365 F&O, including role design, segregation of duties, and SOX-aligned access governance.
• Define MCP/API security patterns covering token enforcement, schema validation, throttling, identity propagation, and request boundary controls.
• Establish secure connector patterns for Power Platform including authentication flows, certificate handling, and data boundary enforcement.
• Ensure application security controls align to OWASP Top 10 and modern threat prevention requirements.

Cloud Security Architecture (Azure + AWS + GCP)

• Define cloud security patterns for Azure, AWS and including workload isolation and identity-based access boundaries.
• Establish logging and telemetry requirements for cloud workloads, AI systems, and agent-driven interactions.
• Ensure cloud and platform designs align with Cyber Security, Cloud Architecture, and Data & AI governance frameworks.
• Support secure authentication patterns including Amazon Cognito for digital identity and user access.

Digital & Web Application Security

• Define authentication, authorization, session management, and API protection for digital-facing applications.
• Partner with the team that owns F5 WAF to ensure policies and configurations meet application and threat-prevention requirements.
• Validate secure request handling, input validation, and cross-domain protections across web workloads.

Governance, Compliance & SOX

• Ensure alignment with enterprise cybersecurity standards, cloud governance, Data & AI governance, and SOX ITGC controls.
• Support access certification, segregation of duties, change management evidence, audit documentation, and control testing.
• Participate in architecture reviews, penetration testing, risk assessments, and remediation planning.
• Develop reusable security standards, reference architectures, guardrails, and implementation guidelines.
• Govern secure Dynamics 365 F&O API interaction patterns including identity propagation, token management, and financial transaction protections.
• Ensure consistent enforcement of enterprise AI guardrails and governance controls across copilots, MCP agents, and automation workflows.

• Bachelor's degree in Information Systems, Computer Science, Cybersecurity, or a related field, or equivalent work experience.
• 8-10+ years of experience in security engineering, application/platform security, or cloud security in a mission-critical enterprise environment.
• Hands-on experience with Azure, AWS and GCP security architecture, including identity, access, workload security, and cloud governance alignment.
• Experience designing and implementing security controls across API ecosystems, application architectures, and integration patterns.
• Demonstrated experience securing AI/LLM systems, agent-based workflows, and automation platforms (including MCP domain agents and orchestrator agents).
• Experience with enterprise authentication and identity platforms, including Amazon Cognito.
• Strong knowledge of encryption standards, data protection, and secure data handling for regulated and SOX-sensitive environments.
• Applied knowledge of cybersecurity frameworks, including Zero Trust, OWASP Top 10, and secure SDLC practices.
• Experience supporting governance and compliance requirements, including SOX ITGC controls, segregation of duties, and audit evidence.

Preferred Experience

• Power Platform and Dataverse security architecture.
• Dynamics 365 F&O security model and SOX-aligned access controls.
• MCP/API security patterns and agent-oriented architecture.
• Familiarity with F5 WAF threat analysis and policy behavior.
• Certifications such as Azure Security Engineer, AWS Security Specialty, CISSP, CCSP, or CISA.
