Job Description
Security Solution Architect | Sydney OR Melbourne | Permanent
Most security architecture jobs are a Visio licence, a standards library nobody reads, and a standing invite to a governance forum.
This is not that job.
The short version
A large, heavily regulated Australian organisation is building out its architecture function and needs a Security Solution Architect to sit inside it.
You report to the Enterprise Security Architect.
Your job is to take security strategy off the slide and turn it into architectures, patterns and standards that engineering teams can actually build against.
What you'd actually be doing
Owning security domain architectures, reference architectures, capability roadmaps and technical standards
Turning policy and principle into design guardrails, requirements and reusable patterns
Running threat modelling, security risk assessments and architecture design reviews on live initiatives
Advising across cloud, identity, network, infrastructure, application and data security




Working alongside security engineering and cyber defence so the controls land properly instead of living in a document
Reading the threat and incident picture, then using it to argue for the right architectural investment
What you'll need
Serious mileage as a Security Architect or Security Solution Architect in complex enterprise environments
Breadth, not just depth: cloud security, IAM, Zero Trust and network, application security, infrastructure, SIEM and monitoring
Strong Azure and Microsoft 365 security capability
Real threat modelling and architecture review experience, not a certification that says you've heard of it
The ability to explain a control decision to an executive who does not care about controls
Why bother
The security architecture function here is being deliberately built rather than inherited, the roadmap is funded, and the environment is complex enough to be engaging.
Getting it wrong has consequences that are not theoretical, which tends to concentrate the mind and speed up decisions.
