Job Description:
Required Education:
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent cyber experience in lieu of degree)
Required Skills:
• Security Architecture & Design – Develop and govern security architecture artifacts (reference architectures, patterns, design guardrails, trust boundaries, threat mappings)
• Risk-Driven Decision Making – Balance security risk, business urgency, and delivery constraints
• Strategic Mindset – Anticipate future threat and technology trends; translate into scalable security architecture strategies
• Influence & Collaboration – Build partnerships across EA, IT, Digital, OT, and Cybersecurity teams
• Architectural Governance – Apply structured frameworks and review discipline to manage change, consistency, and technical debt
• 7–12+ years in Architecture with a Cyber Focus
• Deep experience with enterprise security frameworks, architectural modeling, and modern security patterns
• Experience mentoring senior architects
• Experience influencing enterprise-level security decisions
• Ability to lead others within the same team
• Act as a trusted advisor with ability to influence without authority
• Coach and mentor other cybersecurity architects
Domains of expertise required:
• Cloud security
• Application security
• Identity
• Data protection
• Logging
• IoT/OT
• AI security
• Zero Trust
• Cloud-native platforms
• CyberHub tooling
• Intake workflows
• Metrics tracking
Key Responsibilities:
• Supports internal and formal Cybersecurity Review sessions
• Produces various Cyber Architecture published content
• Defines and maintains enterprise cybersecurity reference architectures, security patterns, and architectural guardrails
• Establishes the minimum-security architecture bar for security reviews
• Ensures consistent cyber interpretation across programs and platforms
• Ensures cybersecurity architecture alignment with strategy, enterprise architecture direction, regulatory requirements, and risk appetite
• Leads and participates in Cybersecurity Architecture reviews, validating solution designs against approved standards, patterns, and risk considerations
• Guides teams to architect secure-by-design solutions (risk reduction, not checklist compliance)
• Identifies security architecture gaps and drives remediation through updated patterns, reference designs, or targeted guidance
• Provides authoritative cybersecurity architecture dispositions and recommendations
• Develops reusable security design patterns, templates, and decision flows
• Partners with external teams to translate cyber patterns into practical implementation guidance
• Drives adoption of approved security patterns through CyberHub tooling, intake workflows, and metrics tracking
• Collaborates with EA, Cyber leadership, and platform owners to define security architecture roadmaps
• Evaluates emerging technologies and threat landscape shifts (AI, Zero Trust, cloud-native platforms) and translates into actionable guidance
• Performs complex risk tradeoff and analysis to inform strategic security architecture decisions
What This Role Is NOT:
• Not an implementation or engineering development role
• Not a control checkbox or compliance only function
• Not a downstream design reviewer brought in after decisions are made
• This role exists to shape decisions early, standardize security intent, and scale secure design across the enterprise.
