• Define cloud-native security patterns, controls, and automation strategies.
• Integrate security into DevSecOps pipelines and infrastructure-as-code.

• For identity-focused candidates:

• Design and implement IAM solutions including identity lifecycle, SSO, MFA, and privileged access.
• Lead enterprise adoption of platforms like Microsoft Entra ID and Okta.
• Define IAM governance models and integrate identity into cloud and application ecosystems.

• Conduct architecture reviews, threat modeling, and risk assessments.
• Collaborate with enterprise architects, engineering teams, and business stakeholders to embed security and IAM into solution designs.
• Stay current with evolving technologies, standards, and compliance frameworks.
• Mentor junior architects and engineers, promoting secure-by-design principles.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, or a related field.
• Certifications such as CISSP, TOGAF, Microsoft Certified: Identity and Access Administrator Associate, or Okta Certified Professional are highly desirable.
• Proven experience in either:

• Designing secure cloud architectures (AWS, Azure, GCP), or
• Implementing enterprise IAM solutions using Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, or similar platforms.

• Strong understanding of security frameworks (e.g., NIST, ISO 27001), IAM protocols (e.g., SAML, OAuth2, OpenID Connect), and compliance standards (e.g., SOC 2, HIPAA).

Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills.
