Lead Security Architect – AI & Data
We are seeking a Lead Security Architect – AI & Data to define and deliver secure, scalable architecture across artificial intelligence, data and cloud environments. You will provide technical leadership on security strategy, ensuring that emerging technologies are adopted responsibly and that information, models, platforms and services are protected throughout their lifecycle. Working closely with engineering, data, risk, privacy and product teams, you will translate business objectives and regulatory expectations into practical, resilient security solutions.
Your responsibilities will include developing security architectures and reference patterns for AI, machine learning, analytics and data platforms; assessing threats, vulnerabilities and privacy risks; and establishing appropriate controls for identity, access, encryption, data classification, model security, supply-chain assurance and monitoring. You will lead architecture reviews, threat modelling and risk assessments, support secure-by-design delivery, and contribute to incident response and remediation planning where required. You will also help shape standards, policies and governance frameworks for the safe use of generative AI and other emerging technologies, while communicating complex technical matters clearly to senior stakeholders.
You will bring substantial experience in security architecture, cyber security engineering or a closely related discipline, with a strong understanding of cloud platforms, enterprise data estates and AI or machine learning environments. Knowledge of security frameworks, privacy principles, regulatory requirements and assurance practices is essential, together with experience of applying concepts such as zero trust, secure software development and defence in depth. Relevant professional certifications, such as CISSP, CISM, SABSA or cloud security qualifications, are desirable. We are looking for an influential and pragmatic leader who can balance innovation with risk management, challenge constructively, build trusted relationships and guide multidisciplinary teams towards secure, measurable outcomes.
