Security Architect

Overture Partners
Boston, MA Full Time
POSTED ON 7/30/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 8/28/2026

About the Role

We're not looking for someone who knows every security tool. We're looking for someone who can take any application, platform, or technology, understand how it works, identify its risks, troubleshoot complex issues, and architect the right security solution. If you're energized by learning new technologies, solving difficult security challenges, and influencing enterprise security strategy, we'd love to talk with you.


We're seeking a highly technical Senior Security Architect to help secure the next generation of enterprise technology. This role offers significant autonomy, giving you the freedom to independently evaluate technologies, identify security risks, design secure architectures, and influence the future direction of our security program.


Rather than supporting a single product or platform, you'll work across AI, cloud, networking, infrastructure, applications, and security operations. You'll partner with engineering teams to ensure security is built into solutions from concept through deployment while helping the organization confidently adopt emerging technologies.


What You'll Do

● Design secure architectures across cloud, infrastructure, enterprise applications, AI platforms, networking, identity, and security operations.

● Evaluate new technologies and determine how they can be securely implemented within the enterprise.

● Diagnose, troubleshoot, and remediate security vulnerabilities across a broad range of systems, applications, and platforms.

● Develop security guidance for AI initiatives, including AI agents, LLMs, secure SDLC, agent identity, least privilege, API security, and automation.

● Support enterprise modernization initiatives, including Zero Trust, micro-segmentation, identity security, network segmentation, and cloud adoption.

● Evaluate and recommend security technologies including SIEM, SOAR, Exposure Management (CTEM), AI-driven security solutions, and automation platforms.

● Research emerging threats and technologies, conduct proof-of-concepts, and help shape enterprise security strategy.

● Collaborate with engineering, infrastructure, and security teams to embed security throughout the technology lifecycle.

● Mentor other security architects and engineers while serving as a trusted technical advisor across the organization.


What We're Looking For

● 8 years of experience in cybersecurity with significant experience in security architecture.

● Strong understanding of enterprise security principles across cloud, networking, applications, infrastructure, identity, and AI.

● Demonstrated ability to quickly learn unfamiliar technologies, assess their security posture, troubleshoot complex issues, and design practical security solutions.

● Experience performing security assessments, threat modeling, architectural reviews, and risk analysis.

● Strong communication skills with the ability to influence technical teams and business stakeholders.

● A naturally curious, hands-on problem solver who enjoys tackling new technologies and complex security challenges.
