About The Position

The Enterprise Security Architect is a hands-on, customer-facing role combining full-stack engineering, security architecture, and agentic AI. The role partners with enterprise customers and their security and engineering teams to understand security landscapes, identify operational bottlenecks, and develop AI-first solutions. It leads engagements from ideation and Proof of Value through prototyping, production development, deployment, and delivery of outcomes. The position designs and reviews secure architectures, performs threat modeling, defines mitigating controls, and builds applications and integrations that operationalize security automation at scale. It also designs and deploys agentic AI systems for use cases such as alert triage, investigation, compliance checks, and remediation. The architect advises customers, translates ambiguous problems into deliverable engineering solutions, and brings customer learnings back to Product and Engineering. The role also involves aligning technical solutions with business goals, assessing existing landscapes, developing transformation and modernization roadmaps, managing technological risks, sharing technical knowledge, contributing to proposals and go-to-market materials, and representing the organization in industry forums and professional publications.
