Lead threat modeling and architecture-level risk assessments for new systems, applications, and major infrastructure changes;

Provide technical leadership and mentorship to security engineers and analysts on architecture best practices and complex remediation efforts;

Collaborate with compliance and QA/RA teams to ensure architecture decisions support audit readiness and alignment with frameworks such as ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIST, HIPAA, and FDA 21 CFR Part 11.

Qualifications

Significant professional experience in Security Architecture, Cloud Security, Information Security, or a related discipline, including hands-on design of enterprise or cloud security solutions;

Deep understanding of security architecture principles, secure network and system design, identity and access management, and data protection strategies;

Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and their native security services;

Experience designing security controls that satisfy regulatory and compliance requirements in enterprise environments;

Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to translate complex technical concepts for both technical and nontechnical audiences and influence decisions across teams;

Experience working in regulated industries such as biotechnology, healthcare, pharmaceutical, or life sciences is preferred;

Familiarity with cybersecurity frameworks and standards, including NIST, ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA/HITECH, FDA 21 CFR Part 11, and GDPR is preferred;
