Job description

• We are looking for an experienced Cybersecurity Solution Architect to join our Solution Architecture team in Dublin
• This is a senior customer-facing role, working closely with our Account Management, Professional Services, Managed Security Services, Product and specialist technical teams
• You will engage with customers ranging from security and technology teams through to CISOs, CIOs and other senior stakeholders, helping them understand their security challenges and translating those challenges into practical, commercially viable cybersecurity solutions
• The role goes beyond selecting technology. You will be expected to understand a customer’s business objectives, security maturity, threat exposure, technology environment, and operating model, bringing these together to design solutions spanning technology, professional services and managed security services
• You will take technical ownership of opportunities throughout the sales lifecycle, from initial discovery and qualification through solution architecture, proposal development, and customer presentation, supporting a smooth transition into successful delivery
• Most importantly, you will become a trusted security advisor to our customers, helping them understand where to focus investment, improve security maturity and strengthen their overall cyber resilience
• Customer Discovery & Advisory
• Lead technical discovery sessions to understand customers’ business objectives, security challenges, existing architecture, security maturity and risk priorities
• Engage confidently with stakeholders ranging from security engineers and architects through to CISO, CIO and executive leadership
• Translate technical and business challenges into clear security requirements and pragmatic improvement plans
• Help customers prioritise security investment based on risk, business outcomes and existing capabilities
• Build trusted advisory relationships, constructively challenging customer thinking where appropriate rather than simply responding to stated technical requirements
• Solution Architecture
• Architect cybersecurity solutions combining technology, professional services and managed security services
• Develop high-level architectures, solution designs, bills of materials, licensing models and professional services scopes
• Design solutions across new and existing customer environments, identifying opportunities to consolidate, optimise and improve security capabilities
• Ensure proposed solutions are technically sound, commercially viable, operationally supportable and aligned with Integrity360’s portfolio and delivery capabilities
• Work across multiple security technologies and vendors, selecting appropriate capabilities based on customer requirements rather than relying on a single technology stack
• Managed Security & Cyber Resilience
• Design solutions incorporating a broad range of cybersecurity capabilities, including:
• Managed Detection and Response (MDR)
• SIEM, XDR and Security Operations
• Endpoint Detection and Response
• Incident Response and Cyber Resilience
• Vulnerability and Exposure Management
• Cloud Security
• Identity Security
• Network and Infrastructure Security
• Email and Collaboration Security
• Data Security
• Security Testing and Assurance
• Threat Intelligence and Digital Risk
• Security Automation and Orchestration
• You will be expected to understand how these technologies and capabilities fit into the customer’s broader security architecture and operating model, rather than treating individual security products as standalone controls
• Proposals, Tenders & Complex Opportunities
• Take technical ownership of cybersecurity opportunities throughout the sales lifecycle
• Produce compelling customer-facing proposals that clearly articulate the proposed solution, security outcomes, value and improvements being delivered
• Support and lead technical responses to RFIs, RFPs and complex cybersecurity tenders
• Work alongside Account Managers to develop technically accurate and commercially appropriate solutions
• Present and defend proposed architectures and services to both technical and executive audiences
• Support effective technical qualification and identify solution, delivery and commercial risks early in the sales process
• Ensure proposed solutions meet customer requirements while remaining deliverable and aligned with Integrity360’s capabilities
• Collaboration & Service Development
• Work closely with Professional Services and Managed Security Services teams to ensure an effective transition from pre-sales into implementation and ongoing service delivery
• Collaborate with other Solution Architects and subject matter experts on complex or multi-domain opportunities
• Engage with strategic technology partners and vendors to understand technology developments, roadmaps and emerging capabilities
• Provide customer and market feedback to Product Management to help shape the evolution of Integrity360’s cybersecurity services
• Contribute to the development of new solutions, propositions and managed services
• Actively share knowledge, experience and best practice across the Solution Architecture team and wider business

Benefits
