Your responsibilities include:

But are not limited to:

• Define the security architecture strategy, target state and roadmap, aligned with enterprise and platform strategies.
• Design secure cloud, container, database, middleware, API and enterprise platforms; translate business, security and regulatory requirements into designs, engaging early in technology evaluations.
• Conduct threat modelling to identify architectural risks, assess trade-offs and define mitigations.
• Maintain security reference architectures, reusable patterns and technical standards that translate approved policies and controls into implementable designs.
• Assess emerging threats and technology trends, evolving security designs and roadmaps to address their architectural implications.
• Guide engineering and delivery teams on security design and implementation issues; implementation and operations remain with these teams.
• Advise stakeholders on architectural options and risks; collaborate with architecture, product, assurance and governance teams to align designs and support adoption and develop and maintain strong relationships with key vendors and strategic external partners.

What you'll bring to the role:

Essential Requirements:

• Master's degree or equivalent in computer science, engineering, information technology or another relevant field.
• Proven experience (8+ years) as a Platform & Cloud Security Architect or Platform & Cloud Solution Architect, with a strong focus on security architecture, solution design and architectural trade-offs.
• Proven security architecture expertise across cloud, databases (e.g., Oracle, MS SQL Server, MySQL), middleware (e.g., Apache, WebLogic, IBM MQ) and APIs, including SAP infrastructure and/or MS Power Platform.
• Demonstrated ability to develop target-state security architectures and reusable design patterns.
• Strong security architecture background, including threat modelling and security design reviews, with the ability to translate risks, controls and regulatory requirements into scalable designs.
• Strong design expertise in platform and cloud security, including segmentation, encryption and key management, data protection, audit logging, secure configuration, transport security and API protection, including integration with enterprise IAM services.
• Excellent communication, negotiation and stakeholder skills, with the ability to explain architectural trade-offs and influence decisions at all levels.
• Ability to translate frameworks such as ISO 27001, CIS Controls, NIST and Cyber Essentials into technical designs.
• Relevant security architecture certifications (e.g., CISSP, ISSAP) and/or relevant cloud certifications are preferred; CISM or CISA complement, rather than replace, architecture expertise.
