About This Role
Cybersecurity is the second-most acute talent gap in India's GCC ecosystem in 2026, with a 25-30% mid-to-senior shortfall. This role is for a security architect who can operate at the intersection of cloud platform engineering and security, building governance-as-code, embedding SAST/DAST into pipelines, and owning zero-trust network architecture across complex multi-cloud environments.
What You Will Do
- Design and own cloud security architecture across AWS, Azure, and/or GCP environments, IAM, network segmentation, data protection, encryption at rest and in transit
- Implement zero-trust architecture principles across enterprise platforms, BeyondCorp model, identity-based access, microsegmentation
- Embed security into CI/CD pipelines, SAST (SonarQube, Semgrep), DAST (OWASP ZAP), SCA (Snyk, Dependabot), container scanning (Trivy, Aqua)
- Own cloud security posture management (CSPM) using tools like Prisma Cloud, Wiz, or AWS Security Hub
- Define and implement secrets management strategy, HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, or Azure Key Vault at enterprise scale
- Lead threat modelling sessions for new product and platform initiatives, STRIDE, PASTA, and Attack Trees
- Design and enforce security governance frameworks, compliance-as-code for SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, and industry-specific regulations (PCI-DSS, HIPAA)
- Build and run vulnerability management programmes, triage, SLA definition, and remediation tracking
- Partner with platform engineering and development teams to drive security ownership throughout the organisation
What You Need to Succeed
- 8+ years of cybersecurity experience with 4+ years focused on cloud and DevSecOps
- Deep cloud security expertise across at least two major providers (AWS, Azure, GCP)

- Threat modelling and security architecture review capability
- Regulatory and compliance framework knowledge, SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, PCI-DSS
- Strong communication skills, ability to present security risk to non-technical executive audiences
What Will Give You an Edge
- CISSP, CCSP, AWS Security Specialty, or equivalent certification
- Experience with AI/ML security, model security, training data governance, inference protection
- Security incident response experience at enterprise scale
- Open source security tooling contributions
