- Develop architecture artefacts including solution designs, security models, integration patterns, infrastructure designs,



data flows and technical roadmaps.
- Design secure integration patterns for applications, CI/CD pipelines, container platforms and cloud services.
- Conduct architecture assessments, option analyses, technology evaluations and technical risk assessments.
- Provide architectural governance and assurance through design reviews, technical reviews and security assessments.
- Ensure solutions incorporate security, scalability, resilience, high availability and operational support requirements.
- Support the implementation and integration of enterprise key and secret management platforms.
- Lead proof-of-concept activities and pilot deployments to validate architectural decisions.
- Develop migration strategies from legacy key and credential management approaches to up-to-date centralised platforms.
- Apply zero-trust and defence-in-depth principles to the protection of cryptographic material.
- Design appropriate audit, logging and monitoring capabilities for key usage, access and lifecycle events.
- Support security accreditation, certification and associated documentation activities.
- Collaborate with technical teams, security stakeholders, project teams and vendors throughout delivery.
- Provide technical leadership and mentorship to implementation teams.
