Security Architect - 100% remote (EST) We are partnering with a large, enterprise organization to hire a Security Architect who will operate as a key extension of senior leadership - supporting day-to-day security initiatives while growing into a leadership role. This is not a traditional architecture role. It is designed for someone who combines broad security knowledge, strong communication skills, and leadership potential.
What You’ll Be Doing:
- Act as a central point of coordination across security and IT teams (think: problem solver, connector, and decision enabler)
- Support architectural discussions while guiding initiatives and helping move work forward
- Participate in high-level meetings and represent the security team with confidence
- Help triage issues, identify the right teams, and ensure problems are resolved efficiently
- Take ownership of day-to-day operational challenges and run with them independently
- Build relationships across the organization to influence outcomes and drive progress
What We’re Looking For:
- 5-7 years of experience in cybersecurity, security engineering, or architecture
- Exposure across multiple domains (e.g., IAM, Security Operations, GRC, Vulnerability Management, AppSec)
- Strong communication skills and executive presence — must be comfortable in meetings with leadership
- Proven ability to take ownership and operate in ambiguous environments
- Someone who naturally steps up, asks the right questions, and drives things forward
- Leadership potential (formal leadership experience is a plus, but not required)
