Follow Shield AI on LinkedIn, X, Instagram, and YouTube. Job Description: Shield AI is hiring a Security Architect to own the technical security design across Enterprise Operations. You will be the senior individual contributor who translates our strategic roadmap into concrete reference architectures and engineering guardrails across zero trust, identity, integration, manufacturing and operational technology, cloud, the data and AI platform, and Enterprise Operations. Your designs will hold up under CMMC, ISO 27001, SOC 2, and DoD customer scrutiny. #LI-HM1 #LF Full-time regular employee offer package: Pay within range listed + Bonus + Benefits + Equity Temporary employee offer package: Pay within range listed above + temporary benefits package (applicable after 60 days of employment) Salary compensation is influenced by a wide array of factors including but not limited to skill set, level of experience, licenses and certifications, and specific work location.

If you have a disability or special need that requires accommodation, please let us know. What you'll do: Own the end-to-end security reference architecture across Enterprise Operations, cloud, and manufacturing environments, from whiteboard to deployed control. Design and enforce zero trust and secure-by-design patterns for users, workloads, and machine identities. Lead the identity and access re-architecture, including conditional access, privileged access, machine identity, and access controls for controlled technical data. Define the security architecture of the enterprise integration backbone so data flowing between engineering, manufacturing, and business systems is authenticated, authorized, and monitored by default. Build the security architecture for digital manufacturing and operational technology, including segmentation, secure remote access, secure build and firmware pipelines, and protection of regulated technical data. Industrialize cloud and infrastructure security through hardened landing zones, infrastructure-as-code guardrails, workload hardening, and continuous compliance evidence. Architect controls for the data and AI platform, including data classification, model protection, and guardrails for internal and customer-facing AI.

Defense compliance: CMMC, NIST 800-171, ISO 27001, SOC 2. U.S. citizenship. Active U.S. government security clearance, or ability to obtain and maintain one.
