*Experience in financial services or other regulated industries
*Ability to produce high-quality architectural documentation

*WAAP, NGFW, NIDS/NIPS, DDoS protection
*API gateways, reverse proxies, AuthN/AuthZ

*Working across hybrid legacy and modern networking landscapes
Preferred qualifications:
*Degrees in Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related fields
*Architecture certifications such as SABSA or TOGAF
