If you’re a technically strong architect who enjoys rolling up your sleeves and turning security strategy into practical solutions, we’d love to hear from you!

What you’ll be doing

  • Lead security architecture across AWS, Azure, Microsoft 365, enterprise networks and identity platforms.
  • Design and implement secure cloud architectures, security controls and reusable reference patterns.
  • Review existing solutions, identify security gaps and drive remediation initiatives.
  • Embed Secure by Design principles across new and existing technology projects.
  • Design security architecture for cloud-based innovation and digital engineering environments.
  • Strengthen identity, Zero Trust, network segmentation and cloud security controls.
  • Integrate security technologies including Microsoft Sentinel, Defender XDR, CSPM and PAM.
  • Partner with engineering, infrastructure and cyber security teams to deliver practical, scalable security solutions.

  • Experience designing security reference architectures and implementing cloud security controls.
  • Strong understanding of security tooling, threat modelling, risk management and security frameworks.
  • Experience reviewing and uplifting existing environments, not just designing new solutions.
  • Excellent stakeholder engagement skills with the ability to translate complex security requirements into practical outcomes.
  • Experience with critical infrastructure, AI platform security or large-scale enterprise transformation will be highly regarded.
