System Architect - Cybersecurity

As part of System Architecture group, the Cybersecurity System Architect will define the end-to-end architecture of advanced network security services, such as intrusion prevention systems (IPS), and host-based intrusion detection systems (HIDS) and firewalling. This role is at the forefront of integrating deep security intelligence into high-performance, scalable network operating systems and telecom-grade platforms.
As part of R&D core function, shaping next-generation secure network infrastructure by embedding deep packet inspection, behavioral analytics, and threat mitigation into the product architecture.
