Senior Software Architect, Cyber Security
NVIDIAFull Time
Senior (5 to 8 years), Junior (1 to 2 years)
Candidates must have a proven track record in both cyber security and operational technology architecture, ideally within pharmaceutical, life sciences, or similarly validated manufacturing industries. Hands-on experience designing or leading OT environments, including plant-floor systems, SCADA/DCS, PLCs, and industrial networks, and lab/R&D systems is essential. A deep understanding of cyber threats and risks to OT, lab and R&D systems, along with practical knowledge of protective, detective, and response capabilities is required. Knowledge of quality, validation, and compliance requirements in validated manufacturing operations is necessary. Exceptional ability to present technical content to executives and non-technical audiences, experience working in large, global, and highly matrixed organizations, and the ability to operate both strategically and tactically are also required.
The Operational Technology (OT) Cyber Security Architect will define, own, and govern security architecture strategies, roadmaps, and standards aligned to business, R&D, IT, and OT needs. They will partner with site operations, IT, engineering, and quality/validation leaders to compose secure, resilient OT, lab, and R&D environments, and anticipate future threats, regulatory drivers, and technology trends. This role involves identifying, assessing, and mitigating cyber risks across OT systems, networks, and operations, implementing monitoring, detection, response, and segmentation strategies, and establishing security baselines and frameworks. The architect will also support the development of incident response and business continuity playbooks, and act as a liaison between various business operations to achieve secure outcomes, representing OT cyber security strategies in executive forums and influencing leaders across a global, matrixed organization.
