📋 Description

• Lead high-value, billable Zero Trust transformation engagements, converting complex security challenges into resilient architectural outcomes for enterprise clients. • Serve as a trusted advisor to C-suite executives and technical teams, translating business risk into actionable security architectures aligned with NIST and CISA frameworks. • Assess enterprise architectures to expose hidden zones of implicit trust, analyze telemetry to identify visibility gaps, and design risk-based control sets that prioritize least-privilege access. • Design and deliver end-to-end Zero Trust architectures across IAM, network, endpoint, and cloud domains, producing clear roadmaps toward an optimized security posture. • Proactively collaborate with clients and internal teams to scope new opportunities, draft statements of work, and respond to Requests for Proposals (RFPs). • Audit the technical integration of SASE, Identity, and XDR solutions to ensure they function as a unified, automated security fabric. • Drive thought leadership by developing intellectual property, presenting at industry events, and mentoring team members to enhance our collective expertise.

🎯 Requirements

• Bachelor’s Degree in a relevant field, or equivalent professional experience. • 6+ years of experience leading cybersecurity advisory, risk management, or professional services engagements for enterprise clients. • 3+ years of direct consulting experience architecting and deploying Zero Trust, SASE, or Identity-centric security models for large organizations. • Demonstrated expertise in designing end-to-end security architectures aligned with frameworks like NIST SP 800-207 and the CISA ZT Maturity Model. • Deep, hands-on expertise with modern security capabilities such as ZTNA, NGFW, SSE, SASE, CNAPP, XDR, and IAM. • Proven track record of strengthening client relationships and contributing to business growth through pre-sales and solution positioning. • Experience architecting security solutions in hybrid and multi-cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP). • Deep expertise with Palo Alto Networks technologies, including Prisma Access, NGFW, and Cortex XDR.
