Cybersecurity Architect

Lendo

You ll collaborate closely with engineering, product, and compliance teams to embed secure-by-design principles into every layer of our technology. By conducting risk assessments, shaping policies, and aligning with regulatory requirements, you ll help safeguard our operations while enabling innovation.

Key Requirements:

• Develop and maintain security architecture frameworks, ensuring alignment with business objectives and regulatory requirements.
• Provide security design guidance for infrastructure, applications, and cloud deployments.
• Define and enforce secure design principles, standards, and patterns across IT and development lifecycles.
• Conduct technical risk assessments and threat modeling to identify potential vulnerabilities and recommend mitigation strategies.
• Assess and recommend security tools and technologies, ensuring scalability and resilience.
• Partner with IT, developers, DevOps, and business units to embed security into projects from the ground up.
• Provide architectural guidance during incident response, forensic investigations, and lessons-learned exercises.
• Ensure designs adhere to frameworks and standards (e.g., NIST CSF, ISO 27001).
• Stay current with evolving threats, emerging technologies, and industry best practices to strengthen enterprise security.
• Define and oversee identity, access, and privilege management strategies, ensuring strong authentication, role-based access, and least-privilege principles.
• Design and guide configuration of key security technologies (SIEM, EDR, firewalls, WAF, DLP, CASB, etc.) to ensure they are integrated and optimized.
• Review architectural changes (e.g., new integrations, design changes, core network modifications, security tooling updates).
• Guide and mentor security engineers, analysts, and developers in secure design best practices.
