• Strengthen cloud identity, privileged access, workload, data, and configuration security. 

• Improve logging, monitoring, and visibility across cloud services. 

• Identify cloud misconfigurations and security gaps and drive remediation.

• Implement appropriate secrets, keys, and privileged access management practices. 

Identity & Access Management 

Drive a strong identity-first security model across the organization. 

• Own and continuously improve Identity & Access Management practices.

• Address risks related to sensitive data exposure, unauthorized AI tools, third-party AI platforms, and insecure integrations. 

• Partner with relevant stakeholders to enable innovation while maintaining appropriate security safeguards. 

Application Security – Future Growth Area 

As Integrant's security maturity evolves, the role will partner with Engineering teams to expand security practices into the software development lifecycle. 

Potential areas include: 

• Secure SDLC 

• DevSecOps 

• Threat modeling 

• SAST / DAST 

• CI/CD security 

• Container and Kubernetes security

• Lead complex infrastructure, security, compliance, and technology projects. 

• Collaborate with Engineering, HR, Operations, and business stakeholders. 

• Communicate technology and security risks clearly to senior management. 

• Drive accountability for technical improvements and remediation initiatives. 

Formal people-management experience is considered a nice-to-have rather than a core requirement.
