Role Overview & Expectations
This is a
senior-level Security Architect
role requiring a
strong foundation in network security and security infrastructure .
Many candidates have solid network security backgrounds but
lack true security architecture experience
and exposure across multiple environments/verticals.
The client is looking for
hands-on architects
who are comfortable configuring and implementing solutions themselves-not purely advisory.
Some candidates lean heavily toward
compliance
but are weaker in
architecture and technical design .
Ideal Candidate Profile
Well-rounded security professional with
hands-on experience
and strong foundational security knowledge.
Certifications such as
CISSP
are highly preferred.
Candidates should be able to confidently answer architectural questions (e.g.,
SIEM recommendations and design rationale ).
Prior experience leading migrations is helpful, but
hands-on participation is critical .
