Resiliency Architect

* Come explore opportunities within committed to challenging conventions and innovating next-generation technologies that transform experiences on the water and beyond.  Brunswick believes “Next Never Rests,” and we offer a variety of exciting careers and growth opportunities within united teams defining the future of marine recreation.
**
* Summary:

** The Enterprise Resiliency Architect is responsible for designing and governing Brunswick’s enterprise-wide resilience architecture across IT, cloud, and operational technology (OT) environments. This role owns the strategy and standards for backup and restore, redundancy, failover, and cyber-resilient recovery, ensuring the organization can withstand and rapidly recover from disruptions of any type — whether infrastructure failure, ransomware attack, or site-level outage.

Operating in a matrix model, the architect partners with infrastructure, cloud, security, and application teams to ensure consistent implementation and testing of resilience controls across the enterprise.
*
* Key Responsibilities:

** Strategy & Governance
* Own and maintain the Enterprise Resilience and Disaster Recovery (ER/DR) standards, policies, and architecture roadmap.
* Define roles and responsibilities across Brunswick divisions (Boat Group, Mercury, Navico, Corporate) to ensure clear accountability for recovery and continuity.
* Embed resilience requirements into technology design, procurement, and change processes.
* Drive policy adherence through both enforcement and metrics-based reporting to the Director of Cyber Resilience, CISO, CIO, and executive leadership.

Backup & Restore Architecture
* Design and maintain
** immutable, versioned backup solutions
** using Rubrik and complementary platforms as needed.
* Define and validate
** Recovery Time (RTO)
** and
** Recovery Point (RPO)
** objectives for all critical applications and data assets.
* Oversee regular
** backup restoration testing** — quarterly for critical systems, semi-annual for others — to validate recovery integrity and performance.
* Integrate ransomware-ready design principles including immutable storage and clean-room rebuild capabilities.

Redundancy & Failover Design
* Architect
** high-availability (HA)
** and
** geographically redundant
** solutions across hybrid workloads and manufacturing operations.
* Balance
** active-active architecture
** for mission-critical applications with
** controlled active-passive
** failover for other systems.
* Collaborate with cloud, network, and infrastructure teams to ensure resilience is designed into core platforms and validated through testing.

Cyber-Resilience & Risk Reduction
* Lead enterprise initiatives for ransomware recovery, immutable backup validation, and clean-room recovery simulation.
* Perform impact and dependency analysis to prioritize resilience investments for business-critical applications and OT systems.
* Integrate threat intelligence and risk data into resilience planning to address emerging attack vectors and supply-chain risks.

Testing, Metrics & Continuous Improvement
* Establish and maintain an enterprise resilience testing program that includes quarterly and semi-annual recovery exercises, tabletop scenarios, and failover drills.
* Track and report resilience KPIs including RTO/RPO compliance, test success rates, coverage, and audit readiness.
* Document lessons learned and drive continuous improvement through updated architecture patterns, playbooks, and automation initiatives.

Cross-Functional Leadership
* Operate in a matrix model to influence infrastructure, cloud, application, and manufacturing teams toward resilience objectives.
* Provide resilience consultation to major projects, acquisitions, and modernization initiatives.
* Represent the Cyber Resilience function in executive readouts, risk committees, and audit reviews.
*
* Experience:

*** Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or related discipline.
* 8+ years of experience in IT infrastructure, disaster recovery, or resilience architecture across hybrid environments.
* Hands-on expertise with
** Rubrik
* * and other enterprise backup and replication technologies.
* Proven experience…
