Cyber Security Architect

• Serves as an expert contributor in the development and implementation of cybersecurity architectures, patterns, strategies, and solutions supporting emerging technology and AI-enabled cybersecurity capabilities.
• Evaluates opportunities to leverage artificial intelligence, agentic AI, automation, orchestration, analytics, and other emerging technologies to enhance cybersecurity capabilities and operating models.
• Develops current-state, transitional, and future-state cybersecurity architectures that integrate capabilities across multiple cybersecurity domains and technology platforms.
• Assesses opportunities to improve interoperability and automation across areas including:
  • Vulnerability and Exposure Management
  • Configuration and Security Posture Management
  • Identity and Access Management
  • Endpoint Protection and Detection
  • Security Operations
  • Asset and Technology Inventory
  • Threat Detection and Response
  • Security Analytics and Automation
• Explores how AI agents and autonomous or semi-autonomous capabilities can securely interact with cybersecurity platforms, enterprise systems, data, and workflows while maintaining appropriate security controls, governance, and human oversight.
• Identifies opportunities to reduce fragmented security processes through technology integration, consolidation, automation, and intelligent orchestration.
• Evaluates emerging cybersecurity technologies, platforms, tools, and architectural approaches for potential applicability within the enterprise.
• Develops reference architectures, architecture patterns, capability models, technical recommendations, and roadmaps supporting future cybersecurity capabilities.
• Partners with cybersecurity domain architects, engineering teams, security operations, technology teams, and other stakeholders to evaluate cross-domain architecture requirements and integration opportunities.
• Assesses architectural considerations associated with machine identities, AI agents, privileged access, authentication, authorization, data access, trust boundaries, and automated actions.
• Evaluates security implications associated with integrating AI capabilities into cybersecurity technologies and operational workflows.
• Helps establish architectural principles and guardrails for the responsible and secure adoption of emerging AI-enabled cybersecurity capabilities.
• Identifies dependencies, architectural gaps, integration challenges, technical risks, and opportunities associated with future-state cybersecurity architectures.
• Develops technical assessments, architecture documentation, recommendations, and executive-level presentations communicating complex concepts to both technical and business stakeholders.
• Proactively monitors technology developments and industry trends that may materially change cybersecurity architecture, operating models, or defensive capabilities.
• Works effectively in an environment involving emerging technologies, ambiguity, experimentation, and rapidly changing technical capabilities.

• B.S. degree or equivalent work experience in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Information Systems, Engineering, or another relevant technical field.

• M.S., M.B.A., or advanced technical degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, Information Systems, or equivalent field.

One or more relevant cybersecurity or technology certifications preferred, such as:

• Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP)
• Certified Information Security Manager (CISM)
• Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control (CRISC)
• Cloud or security architecture certifications
• Vendor-specific security or AI certifications
• Other equivalent cybersecurity, architecture, cloud, or emerging technology certifications

• Minimum of 6 years of combined cybersecurity, information technology, architecture, engineering, or related technical experience.
• Demonstrated experience designing, evaluating, or implementing enterprise cybersecurity architectures and solutions.
• Experience working across multiple cybersecurity technology domains rather than exclusively within a single security discipline.
• Experience developing architecture patterns, technical strategies, integration approaches, or future-state technology designs.
• Demonstrated ability to evaluate complex technologies and translate technical capabilities into practical enterprise use cases.
• Experience working with multidisciplinary technical teams including architects,…
