About the Role
This role is part of the Security Architecture & Engineering team and focuses on embedding security into systems, platforms, products, and infrastructure by design.
The role provides security architecture consultancy to technical and business stakeholders, helping teams make pragmatic, risk-based security decisions while supporting business objectives. It is responsible for identifying architectural security risks, design flaws, and security gaps across new initiatives, infrastructure changes, cloud adoption, platform services, and business-critical systems.
In addition, the role contributes to building reusable reference security architectures, design principles, and assessment frameworks aligned with regulatory and industry frameworks such as NIST, ISO, PCI DSS, GDPR, and KVKK. The role also drives process improvement and automation initiatives to improve the scalability, consistency, and maturity of security architecture practices across the organization.

- Identify architectural design flaws and propose practical mitigation options considering business context, technical constraints, and regulatory requirements.
- Support security alignment in areas such as cloud architecture, network security, Kubernetes/container platforms, IAM, data security, AI security, and infrastructure security.
- Contribute to improving and automating security architecture review processes to increase scalability, consistency, and efficiency.
- Collaborate with engineering, infrastructure, product, compliance, and security teams to ensure security requirements are understood and implemented effectively.
- Support regulatory and audit readiness by aligning architecture decisions with relevant standards and control requirements.
Expected Qualifications
- Experience in security architecture, security engineering, security consultancy, or technical security assessment roles.
