Engineering
Infrastructure and Security Architect
You design the infrastructure we build for clients and run the security assessments that keep them out of trouble. You also earn a seat in the room when a business owner decides what the next two years of their technology look like.
The job
This is a hands-on architecture role with no management duties. You design client infrastructure and stay close while it gets built.
You architect Microsoft 365 and Azure environments, including identity, security and governance, and you run security assessments that end in remediation plans a business owner can act on. When something goes wrong at a client, you're the escalation the engineers reach for.
You'll work alongside our senior technical leadership on the largest designs and the most complex compliance engagements, with room to take on more of both as you prove out. This role suits an engineer who has been the strongest technical person on their team and is ready to spend most of the week on design and security work with clients instead of tickets.
This is a full-time, exempt position reporting to the Owner and General Manager. The day is eight hours inside an 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. window, with a full hour for lunch.
What you will do
Architecture and design
- Design client infrastructure (network, server, cloud and hybrid) and oversee it being built
- Architect Microsoft 365 and Azure environments, including identity, security and governance
- Design business continuity and disaster recovery that has been tested as well as documented
- Contribute to multi-year technology roadmaps for managed clients
Security
- Run client security assessments and drive the remediation work that follows
- Serve as an escalation point for security incidents
- Support compliance engagements (CMMC, HIPAA, NIST 800-171, PCI) under senior direction
- Help maintain and improve our security standards across the client base
Client engagement
- Sit with clients at the owner and manager level, put technical direction in business terms, and support solution scoping and proposals with accurate, buildable designs
- Coach engineers and support staff on designs you hand off
What we are looking for
Required
- Six or more years of professional IT experience, including two or more years as a senior engineer, lead engineer or architect
- Strong network and infrastructure design experience across multiple environments
- Substantial Microsoft 365 and Azure experience, including identity and security configuration in production
- A cybersecurity background that includes assessments, hardening or incident response, beyond antivirus administration
- Business continuity and disaster recovery design experience, including performing restores
- The ability to present technical decisions to non-technical decision makers
- A valid driver's license and reliable transportation
- Legal authorization to work in the U.S. without sponsorship
- Full-time on-site availability at Painesville or Hudson
Preferred
- Security+, CySA+, SSCP, or progress toward CISSP or CISM
- Exposure to CMMC, HIPAA or NIST 800-171 engagements
- Microsoft associate or expert level certifications (AZ-104, AZ-500, SC-100, SC-200)
- Prior managed service provider experience
- Exposure to pre-sales scoping or solution design
What this role is not
- Not a management position. There are no direct reports
- Not remote or hybrid. The work is on-site five days a week, with regular client visits across Northeast Ohio
- Not an IT Director or security officer title in disguise. This is a working technical role
- Not a role where you're handed finished standards to follow. You'll help write them
