Your Role as a Security Architect:

We’re looking for a Security Architect with a passion for securing Artificial Intelligence platforms, AI-driven code analysis, MCP security testing, promoting OWASP Top-Ten testing standards and supporting the Security Engineering program through the Software Application Maturity Model. A proven history of leading complex security transformations. This is a hands-on, deeply technical role, not an advisory position, ideal for someone who thrives at the intersection of engineering, security and client engagement.

You'll use your expertise to penetration test cloud security, software security, and AI platforms whilst leading clients through high-impact security initiatives. A key focus of the role is conducting forensic investigations across cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), including containerized environments like Kubernetes.

In this role, you'll lead the architecture. design and implementation of modern security solutions, working directly with engineering teams to embed AI and Software Development best practices across their teams. You’ll get your hands dirty configuring, maintaining, and remediating infrastructure—particularly within Google Cloud or Microsoft Azure—including networks, firewalls, and web application firewalls.

If you’re looking to lead, build, and solve real-world security problems in the cloud, this role was built for you.

A Day in the Life of a Security Architect :

Lead and execute security transformation initiatives for enterprise clients, focusing on AI security, cloud security, application security, and vulnerability management.
Proficiency in writing code, scripting and automation (e.g., Python, PowerShell, Bash) to streamline investigations.
Serve as a primary client-facing security expert, building strong relationships and effectively communicating complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Architect, design, and implement robust security solutions for cloud-native and traditional applications, with a strong emphasis on GCP and Azure.
Conduct in-depth security assessments, red-team assessments, penetration tests, and code reviews to identify vulnerabilities and recommend remediation strategies.
Collaborate with the engineering team to develop and implement secure software development lifecycles (SSDLC), integrating security best practices throughout the entire development process.
Provide expert guidance on OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, secure coding practices, and threat modeling.
Drive the adoption of automated security testing tools and processes.
The candidate will be available on occasional nights and weekends to support the Security Operations team and will be on-call in the event of any security incident.
Mentor and provide technical leadership to other security engineers and client teams.
Stay abreast of the latest security trends, threats, and technologies, continuously enhancing our service offerings
