This position serves as a strategic bridge between business objectives and enterprise security architecture within a federally focused environment. You will act as a technical ISO stakeholder, providing security architecture and guidance to solution owners across OCTO and Business Development teams. The role is designed to ensure that technology solutions not only drive innovation but also adhere to rigorous regulatory and contractual security standards.
In this capacity, you will translate complex security requirements, standards, and controls into clear, actionable guidance for both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Your work will involve identifying architectural and solution-level security risks, collaborating with partners to define appropriate mitigating controls, and documenting security architecture decisions to support audit and assurance activities. You will be instrumental in fostering strategic relationships and establishing key organizational partnerships to ensure that new and existing technologies are assimilated correctly and function securely.
