Responsibilities • Lead end‑to‑end solution architecture: scope, plan, and deliver advice to Client’s data center and cloud hosted platforms considering end user, compute, storage, network, and identity components • Design reference architectures & solutions: hybrid identity, network segmentation, observability/SIEM, backup/DR, and Azure/AWS landing zones; create reusable artifacts/accelerators • Operate at two altitudes: brief CIO/CTO/CISO/CFO with clear POVs and guide engineers with implementable plans • Mentor and lead: coordinate Enduir SMEs (identity, network, cloud, security engineering) into one cohesive design and delivery plan • Drive measurable outcomes: resilience uplift, cost optimization, modernization milestones—on‑time/on‑budget—with transparent progress reporting • Thrive in ambiguity: structure complex problems, make sensible trade‑offs, and maintain calm urgency • Collaborate with DevOps/platform teams: embed DevSecOps principles (CI/CD controls, secrets management, IaC policy‑as‑code) into architecture considerations and transformation plans • Set enterprise architecture direction & portfolio guardrails (target state, landing zones, identity, network, observability, data protection/DR) • Lead large, multi‑tower transformations (infra, cloud, security, data, apps, EUC) with program governance (steerco, KPIs, critical path) • Scale standards & operating models across assets (e.g., FinOps, risk/controls governance); influence practice strategy and portfolio priorities • Lead discovery and assess cyber/infra controls (identity, network, logging, backup/DR, Azure/AWS cloud posture); quantify risk and cost‑to‑remediate • Shape a cohesive solution: Orchestrate Enduir technical experts (identity, network, cloud, security engineering) to validate findings and recommend pragmatic remediation options aligned to the investment thesis • Own delivery & satisfaction: Drive the workplan and economics (scope, timeline, on‑budget), produce sponsor‑ready red/yellow/green summaries and underwriting inputs; maintain stakeholder confidence and client satisfaction • Architect a thesis‑aligned diligence model (risk scenarios, escrow/R&W inputs, TSA implications), negotiate access and scope with bankers/target, and set a confirmatory work plan that de‑risks close • Build a prioritized roadmap (milestones, RACI, budget/staffing) across identity modernization, network segmentation, tool rationalization, and data‑center exit steps • Shape a cohesive solution: Lead Enduir technical experts to design reference architectures and cutover runbooks; balance quick wins vs. structural fixes to ensure feasibility • Own delivery & satisfaction: Run weekly cadence, track progress/KPIs, manage change control, and deliver on‑time/on‑budget; brief executives with clear trade‑offs and maintain client satisfaction • Own the transformation program end‑to‑end—secure funding, establish OKRs/KPIs, chair the steerco, manage critical path across infra/cloud/security/EUC/apps, and align the operating model (roles/SLAs) for durable run • Run baseline assessments using Enduir’s proprietary methodology; produce portfolio heatmaps and board‑ready reporting with actionable follow‑ups • Shape a cohesive solution: Coordinate Enduir experts to define minimum control standards and reusable patterns (identity hardening, backup/restore testing, detection use cases) and support adoption at each asset • Own delivery & satisfaction: Manage multi‑asset scheduling, ensure consistent quality, communicate progress transparently, and deliver on‑budget with strong client satisfaction • Expand the scope of review and baseline definement into new tools/technology types (e.g., SASE/SD‑WAN, EDR/XDR, SIEM/observability, DLP/data security, email security, platform backup/DR) and drive portfolio‑wide adoption and measurement • Partner with Enduir incident leaders to translate lessons learned into control changes, tabletop scenarios, and roadmap updates; prior IR experience not required • Shape a cohesive solution: Lead Enduir experts to implement identity hardening, endpoint re‑baseline, email security hygiene, logging/SIEM uplift, and backup validation—prioritizing feasible, high‑value actions • Own delivery & satisfaction: Establish a short‑cycle plan, track improvements, communicate clearly to executives, and deliver on‑budget with high client satisfaction • Serve as the sponsor’s executive incident advisor—calibrate materiality and external communications with counsel/insurers, secure uplift funding, sequence cross‑portfolio improvements, and brief Boards on risk reduction Skills • 12–15+ years; proven track record leading PE portfolio programs and complex diligence/integration work • Consulting toolkit: comfortable leading engagement delivery, executive storytelling, structured problem-solving, outcome definition, and deliverable creation and creativity • PE/M&A fluency: buy-side diligence, carve‑outs, TSA, integration, 100‑day plans, underwriting inputs, and exit readiness • Relevant certification a plus • Communication: strong writing (clear, sponsor-ready deliverables) and executive presence Company Overview • Enduir Cyber is an incident response and recovery services firm.
