About the role
Security Architect to own platform security end-to-end (infrastructure, applications, APIs) with hands-on implementation. Role involves threat modeling, security design reviews, audits, customer/regulator engagement, and potential team growth.
Responsibilities
- Own the security architecture across cloud infrastructure, applications, and APIs, and evolve it as the platform grows into new products and regions.
- Work directly with engineers to identify, prioritize, and remediate security issues in infrastructure, application code, and APIs, reviewing designs, pairing on fixes, and validating that they hold.
- Perform threat modeling and security design reviews for new services and significant changes, and embed security into the development lifecycle (secure coding standards, code review, CI/CD controls, dependency and container security).
- Define and maintain security standards, reference architectures, and hardening baselines, and drive their adoption across engineering.
- Lead and coordinate security testing, including penetration tests, vulnerability management, and remediation tracking, and hold findings to closure within defined timelines.
- Translate industry and regulatory security and privacy requirements into concrete technical and organizational controls, and keep them current as obligations change.
- Own the technical side of audits and assessments, including industry and certification audits (for example SOC 2 and ISO 27001), enterprise-customer security reviews, and regulatory reviews, covering evidence, control mapping, and remediation of findings.
- Represent security in customer-facing conversations, including security questionnaires, due-diligence calls, and trust discussions with prospects, customers, and their auditors.
- Partner with the privacy and data-protection function to ensure controls meet GDPR and other applicable data protection requirements, with particular care for personal and biometric data.
- Contribute to incident readiness and response, including detection, investigation, and post-incident improvement.
- As the team grows, mentor and eventually manage junior security engineers, setting technical direction, reviewing work, and developing the team.
Qualifications
- 7 to 9 years of experience in security engineering, security architecture, or a closely related field, with a track record of securing production systems at scale.
- Genuine hands-on technical depth. Ability to read and reason about application code, cloud infrastructure, and API design, and work with engineers to fix issues.
- Strong command of cloud security (network segmentation, IAM, secrets and key management, workload and container security, infrastructure-as-code).
- Deep application and API security knowledge (vulnerability classes, secure design patterns, authentication/authorization, secure SDLC practices).
- Solid understanding of industry and regulatory security and privacy requirements (SOC 2, ISO/IEC 27001, GDPR) and ability to apply them proportionately.
- Experience handling audits and assessments (certification, enterprise-client, regulatory), including evidence prep and remediation closure.
- Excellent stakeholder and customer-facing communication; able to explain security to engineers, executives, auditors, and customers.
- Sound risk judgment balancing security, business needs, and delivery.
