This position serves as a critical bridge between business strategy and information security architecture within a federally focused environment. You will act as a technical ISO stakeholder, providing security architecture and guidance to solution owners, particularly across OCTO (AIA/Solution Architects) and Business Development teams. The role exists to ensure that technology solutions not only drive business objectives but also adhere to rigorous enterprise security standards, internal controls, and regulatory obligations.
In this capacity, you will translate complex security requirements, standards, and controls into clear, actionable guidance for both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Your day-to-day involves assessing business strategies to determine security needs, conducting vulnerability analyses, and overseeing projects through implementation. You will collaborate with internal and external partners to identify architectural risks, define mitigating controls, and document security decisions to support audit and assurance activities. Additionally, you will foster strategic relationships and provide subject matter expertise to support compliance activities across regulated environments.
