TL;DR · Cloud Security Architecture Lead

The Cloud Security Architecture Lead will define and guide the complete security architecture for global cloud and datacenter infrastructure, specifically protecting critical AI workloads against advanced adversaries. This role involves architecting robust security frameworks for public cloud platforms including AWS, Azure, GCP, and Oracle, alongside private GPU and AI environments. Key responsibilities include implementing network segmentation using SDN techniques for multi-tenant isolation, facilitating Confidential Computing and hardware-rooted trust models, and crafting layered encryption schemes based on Zero Trust principles. The lead will govern workload identity frameworks, eliminate static credentials, and direct security architecture for container and Kubernetes environments. The position requires technical leadership to mentor a team of security architects and engineers while managing complex security risks and architectural trade-offs across the organization.

What you'll do

  • Define and guide the complete security architecture for global cloud and datacenter infrastructure.
  • Architect robust security frameworks for public cloud platforms and private GPU/AI environments.
  • Implement network segmentation strategies using SDN techniques for multi-tenant isolation.
  • Facilitate the adoption of Confidential Computing and hardware-rooted trust models for AI workloads.
  • Craft layered encryption schemes to mitigate risks and adhere to Zero Trust principles.
  • Govern workload identity frameworks to eliminate static credentials and implement identity-based access controls.
  • Direct security architecture in container and Kubernetes environments to maintain secure, scalable clusters.
  • Provide technical leadership and mentoring to a team of security architects and engineers.

What we're looking for

  • 15+ years in security engineering or architecture roles.
  • Minimum of 8 years in senior leadership positions.
  • Expertise in architecting security for both "Security of the Cloud" and "Security in the Cloud."
  • Deep knowledge of cloud-native security architectures on major cloud platforms.
  • Strong expertise in workload identity and zero-trust access patterns.
  • Demonstrated expertise in protecting containerized and Kubernetes environments on a large scale.
  • BS/MS or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field, or equivalent experience.
  • Experience securing AI/ML infrastructure and GPU compute clusters against novel threats (preferred).
