SummaryThe 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 ResponsibilitiesStrategy & 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.
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 designing and testing HA and DR architectures across cloud…
