About the role
Job Description Summary
We are seeking a Principal Cybersecurity Architect to serve as a technical leader on identity and access management (IAM) for AI systems, large language models (LLMs), and autonomous AI agents. This is a position reserved for seasoned technical leaders who operate at the intersection of deep architecture expertise, enterprise-wide influence, and forward-looking security vision. As a Principal Architect, you will not simply implement solutions — you will define the strategy, set the standards, and shape the future of how AI systems are secured across our enterprise. You will drive alignment across engineering, platform, and business teams, and your architectural decisions will have lasting impact. You will serve as a key technical partner to our AI Foundry, embedding security-by-design principles into AI platforms and agent frameworks from inception. You will own the identity lifecycle for AI agents — from onboarding and certification through recertification and decommissioning — ensuring every AI entity operating in our environment is accountable, traceable, and governed under the principle of least privilege. Principal Architects at our organization are recognized technical leaders. You will be expected to drive clarity in ambiguous problem spaces, influence without authority across organizational boundaries, mentor the next generation of security architects, and represent our security posture in executive and cross-functional forums. If you are energized by solving security challenges that have no playbook yet — and by building the playbook yourself — this role is for you.Job Description
