Security Architect (AWS)

Role: Security Architect (AWS – Cloud Security & Architecture)

Location: Bangalore

Mode: Hybrid

Type: Contract

Job Description:

About the Role We are seeking a Security Architect (AWS-first) to lead security architecture design across our cloud and AI/ML engagements. This is a strategic, design-focused role where you’ll ensure every solution adheres to AWS’s Well-Architected Security Pillar, regulatory expectations, and Responsible AI principles.

You won’t be responsible for day-to-day DevOps or operations; instead, you’ll shape blueprints, guide risk assessments, and embed security-bydesign into every solution. Partnering with presales, architects, and executives, you’ll define secure, scalable, and trusted architectures that deliver measurable value while maintaining compliance and resilience.

Responsible AI / AI Security Awareness

• Knowledge of AI ethics and Responsible AI practices (bias mitigation, privacy, accountability, explainability).

• Hands-on experience in threat modeling, risk assessment, and security posture reviews.

• Familiarity with compliance frameworks (ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, sector-specific like BFSI/Telecom regulations).

• Experience with architecture governance boards and security review processes

Networking & Connectivity

• Solid foundation in network security: VPC design, subnetting, routing, VPN, Direct Connect, BGP, transit gateways, firewalls.

• Experience in hybrid-cloud and multi-VPC security architectures.

• Deep expertise in AWS security services (IAM, GuardDuty, Security Hub, Macie, CloudTrail, KMS, WAF, Shield).

• Strong command of AWS security design principles: least privilege, defense in depth, traceability, encryption, incident readiness.

• Proven experience translating security requirements into architectural guardrails and design choices
