• Defining the architecture for secure build pipelines, artifact repositories, and software signing infrastructure
• Designing integration with Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) to enable secure key management and code signing
• Recommending suitable technologies, infrastructure components, and deployment models
• Producing a detailed solution proposal, including architecture diagrams, implementation roadmap, and technical recommendations
• Preparing a realistic cost estimate covering implementation, licensing (where applicable), infrastructure, and knowledge transfer activities
• Providing recommendations for governance, operational processes, and long-term maintenance
• Delivering technical workshops and knowledge transfer sessions to ensure the client's engineering teams can successfully operate and maintain the solution
