Security Architect

WirelessCar’s Journey

WirelessCar drives the future of mobility by connecting vehicles and developing cutting-edge digital services. We help leading brands-like Volkswagen, Volvo, and Jaguar Land Rover-innovate, enhance mobility, and accelerate their digital transformation. Join us and shape the next era of automotive technology!

We are looking for Security Architect with 15+ years’ experience to help us build secure, resilient and trusted connected services by making security an integral part of architecture and delivery.

As a Security Architect, you will help define, evolve and govern the security architecture of our digital services throughout their lifecycle - from early business and design decisions through implementation and continuous evolution.

You will work closely with development teams, solution architects, product stakeholders and cybersecurity colleagues to translate security requirements, risks and regulatory obligations into practical, scalable and cost-effective architectural decisions.

Your Impact

· Define and maintain security architecture for assigned systems, solutions and deliveries.

· Ensure security architecture aligns with WirelessCar security strategy, policies, standards, architectural principles and risk appetite.

· Translate security requirements, risks and relevant regulatory obligations into concrete architecture patterns, controls and design decisions. Communicate security decisions, risks and trade-offs clearly to stakeholders.

· Review and approve security-relevant architecture designs and changes within your assigned scope.

· Embed security-by-design and privacy-by-design throughout the system and solution lifecycle.

· Guide Solution Architects, Software Engineers, Product Owners and delivery stakeholders in secure architecture decisions.

· Lead or contribute to threat modelling, security risk assessments, architecture reviews and design validation activities.

· Identify, prioritize and escalate architecture risks and deviations, and coordinate practical remediation actions.

· Monitor emerging threats, technologies and architecture patterns relevant to WirelessCar products, platforms and the automotive industry.

· Initiate and lead proof-of-concepts and evaluations of new security technologies and architecture approaches.

· Contribute actively to a culture of continuous learning, shared standards and secure engineering.

· Work closely with customer stakeholders and manage their expectations and collaborate with solution architect, delivery manager in achieving the goals.

We believe that you bring

You are a technically experienced and pragmatic security professional who can move comfortably between the bigger system perspective and important implementation details.

You enjoy solving complex problems together with others and can influence technical direction without relying on formal authority. You can balance risk, cost, complexity and delivery needs, explain why a security decision makes sense, listen to different perspectives and help teams reach a good solution.

You also enjoy coaching and supporting engineers and architects, and you see security architecture as something developed together with delivery teams - not something created separately and handed over for implementation.

· A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

· Hands-on experience in security architecture, system architecture or cybersecurity roles across cloud-based, distributed or platform-oriented environments.

· An understanding of security and compliance frameworks relevant to the role, such as UNECE R155 ISO/SAE27001; TISAX & ISO27001 etc.

· Experience communicating technical security concepts, decisions and trade-offs to technical and non-technical audiences.

· Experience working collaboratively across engineering, architecture, product, governance, risk, compliance and operations teams in complex development environments.

· Experience securing AWS and/or Azure cloud-native environments, including containers, Kubernetes, APIs, identity, network and data protection patterns.

How You Work

· You act with ownership, integrity and curiosity, balancing business enablement with robust security design.

· You take accountability for your architecture scope and make clear, risk-based decisions within established governance.

Practical Information

· Work Location: Bangalore,India.

· Standard working hours, with collaboration across globally distributed teams.

· Occasional travel may be required depending on delivery and customer needs.
