Responsibilities\nServes as an expert contributor in the development and implementation of cybersecurity architectures, patterns, strategies, and solutions supporting emerging technology and AI-enabled cybersecurity capabilities.\nEvaluates opportunities to leverage artificial intelligence, agentic AI, automation, orchestration, analytics, and other emerging technologies to enhance cybersecurity capabilities and operating models.\nDevelops current-state, transitional, and future-state cybersecurity architectures that integrate capabilities across multiple cybersecurity domains and technology platforms.\nAssesses opportunities to improve interoperability and automation across areas including:Vulnerability and Exposure Management\nConfiguration and Security Posture Management\nIdentity and Access Management\nEndpoint Protection and Detection\nSecurity Operations\nAsset and Technology Inventory\nThreat Detection and Response\nSecurity Analytics and Automation\n\nExplores 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.\nIdentifies opportunities to reduce fragmented security processes through technology integration, consolidation, automation, and intelligent orchestration.\nEvaluates emerging cybersecurity technologies, platforms, tools, and architectural approaches for potential applicability within the enterprise.\nDevelops reference architectures, architecture patterns, capability models, technical recommendations, and roadmaps supporting future cybersecurity capabilities.\nPartners with cybersecurity domain architects, engineering teams, security operations, technology teams, and other stakeholders to evaluate cross-domain architecture requirements and integration opportunities.\nAssesses architectural considerations associated with machine identities, AI agents, privileged access, authentication, authorization, data access, trust boundaries, and automated actions.\nEvaluates security implications associated with integrating AI capabilities into cybersecurity technologies and operational workflows.\nHelps establish architectural principles and guardrails for the responsible and secure adoption of emerging AI-enabled cybersecurity capabilities.\nIdentifies dependencies, architectural gaps, integration challenges, technical risks, and opportunities associated with future-state cybersecurity architectures.\nDevelops technical assessments, architecture documentation, recommendations, and executive-level presentations communicating complex concepts to both technical and business stakeholders.\nProactively monitors technology developments and industry trends that may materially change cybersecurity architecture, operating models, or defensive capabilities.\nWorks effectively in an environment involving emerging technologies, ambiguity, experimentation, and rapidly changing technical capabilities.\nEducation\nMinimum\nB.S. degree or equivalent work experience in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Information Systems, Engineering, or another relevant technical field.\nDesired\nM.S., M.B.A., or advanced technical degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, Information Systems, or equivalent field.\nLicense/Certification Desired\nOne or more relevant cybersecurity or technology certifications preferred, such as:\nCertified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP)\nCertified Information Security Manager (CISM)\nCertified in Risk and Information Systems Control (CRISC)\nCloud or security architecture certifications\nVendor-specific security or AI certifications\nOther equivalent cybersecurity, architecture, cloud, or emerging technology certifications\n\nExperience Minimum\nMinimum of 6 years of combined cybersecurity, information technology, architecture, engineering, or related technical experience.\nDemonstrated experience designing, evaluating, or implementing enterprise cybersecurity architectures and solutions.\nExperience working across multiple cybersecurity technology domains rather than exclusively within a single security discipline.\nExperience developing architecture patterns, technical strategies, integration approaches, or future-state technology designs.\nDemonstrated ability to evaluate complex technologies and translate technical capabilities into practical enterprise use cases.\nExperience working with multidisciplinary technical teams including architects, engineers, cybersecurity operations, developers, infrastructure teams, and technology vendors.\nExperience Desired\nExperience or demonstrated knowledge in the following areas is highly desirable:\nGenerative and agentic AI: LLMs, AI agent architectures, and agent-to-system and machine-to-machine interactions\nAI security and governance: secure adoption of emerging AI capabilities\nEnterprise security architecture: reference architectures, design patterns, and defense-in-depth\nZero Trust architecture: covering network, platform, and identity\nSecurity platform strategy: integration, technology rationalization and consolidation, capability modeling, and roadmapping\nVulnerability and exposure management: attack surface management, asset discovery and inventory, and risk prioritization\nSecurity configuration and posture management: control assessment and configuration baselines\nIdentity and access management: authentication, authorization, identity governance, and privileged access management\nNon-human identity management: machine, workload, and AI agent identities\nSecurity operations and detection: endpoint protection, EDR/XDR, SIEM/SOAR, telemetry and analytics, threat detection and response, and automated orchestration Knowledge, Skills, Abilities & Technical Competencies\nStrong knowledge of cybersecurity architecture, enterprise security technologies, and emerging trends, including how AI and automation are changing architectures and operating models.\nAbility to look past individual products and evaluate security as an integrated ecosystem, including the dependencies across identity, endpoints, infrastructure, applications, data, vulnerability management, security operations, and AI.\nStrong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to work through complex and ambiguous technical problems.\nAbility to research and assess emerging technologies on your own, including where no established enterprise patterns exist yet.\nAbility to turn emerging concepts into practical architecture patterns, use cases, recommendations, and implementation guidance.\nSound judgment in telling apart promising capabilities from those not yet mature, secure, or ready for enterprise use.\nStrong written and verbal communication, including explaining complex security and AI concepts to both technical teams and executives.\nAbility to influence technical direction and collaborate across organizational boundaries.\nAbility to work well in a fast-moving, collaborative environment where requirements change.\nStrong technical curiosity and a willingness to challenge traditional approaches while keeping to sound security, risk, and governance principles.\nSalary Range\n$153,520.00 - $242,400.00 USD (Salary)Please note that the salary information provided herein is base pay only (gross); it does not
