About this role

The Senior Cloud Architect designs and implements organization-level security and governance for cloud infrastructure that spans products and business processes. The role supports secure use of company-wide data and AI platforms while working as a first line of defense with business units, executives, audit, risk management, corporate IT, and development organizations.

Responsibilities include setting Google Cloud Organization-level standards and roadmaps for IAM, network controls, encryption policies, organizational policies, and infrastructure as code. The role establishes Terraform standardization policies, design-review criteria, and operational rules, and defines incident-response policies, operating structures, and escalation processes for data and AI workloads.

The position develops governance aligned with security frameworks and compliance requirements, including CIS Controls, NIST CSF, ISMAP, ISO 27001, laws, and audit requirements. It sets organizational policies for logs, monitoring, configuration management, and audit trails; leads risk assessments and audit responses; and prepares security policies, operating rules, and standard design guidelines for adoption across the organization.

The architect also develops data and AI governance strategies, policies, and risk-assessment frameworks. Work includes reviewing access control, encryption, data masking, auditing, and monitoring for BigQuery and Agent Platform; defining approaches for confidentiality of GenAI input data, output validation, privacy, copyright, and security risks; and creating guardrails, standard templates, and developer documentation for development teams and data engineers.

Required experience includes organization-level cloud architecture, governance design, and operations in Google Cloud, AWS, or Azure; governance design and operations involving IAM, VPC, encryption, audit logs, and organizational policies; and hands-on design, construction, and operation of application or data platforms in cloud environments. Candidates need practical experience in cloud governance, information security, IT controls, or system risk management, as well as experience coordinating diverse stakeholders and documenting policies, architecture, standards, and operating rules clearly.

The stated technology environment includes Google Cloud, Python, SQL, BigQuery, Fivetran, dbt, Vertex AI, MLflow, LiteLLM, Datadog LLM Observability, Looker, Looker Studio, Terraform, Visual Studio Code, Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Devin, and GAS.
