As a Fortune 500 Solutions Integrator with deep expertise in cloud, data, AI, cybersecurity, and intelligent edge, we guide organizations through complex digital decisions.\nAbout the role\nHelp clients turn Microsoft 365 security investments into coherent, practical protection. As a Senior M365 Security Architect at Insight Canada, you will shape secure, scalable and user-centered solutions across Microsoft Purview, Agent 365, Microsoft Defender and Microsoft Entra, bringing identity, devices, data and collaboration together through Zero Trust architecture.\nThis is a client-facing delivery role that connects business priorities, security risk and technical delivery. You will assess current environments, define target-state designs and phased roadmaps, and guide implementation through testing, adoption and operational handoff. The emphasis is Microsoft 365 security and governance; Microsoft Defender Suite, Microsoft Entra Suite Azure governance, and Microsoft Sentinel support the solution where needed rather than define its core.\nSecurity architecture and roadmaps \nIdentity and access: Microsoft Entra \nThreat and endpoint protection: Microsoft Defender \nInformation protection and governance: Microsoft Purview \nSecure collaboration and tenant transformation \nDelivery leadership and technical governance \nConsulting and stakeholder leadership \nBe AmbITious: This opportunity is not just about what you do today but also about where you can go tomorrow.
