Cloud Security Architect - DevSecOps Manager

Position Summary

Are you interested in working in a dynamic environment that offers opportunities for professional growth and new responsibilities? If so, Deloitte & Touche LLP could be the place for you. Traditional security programs have often been unsuccessful in unifying the need to both secure and support technology innovation required by the business. Join Deloitte's Cloud Cyber Services team and become a member of the largest group of cybersecurity professionals worldwide.

Work you'll do

As a DevSecOps Security Architect (Manager), you will lead client engagements that define, operationalize, and scale secure-by-design software delivery in cloud-agnostic environments. Responsibilities include:

• Lead delivery of DevSecOps / Secure SDLC programs as a project manager and/or architect, overseeing onsite/offshore teams across governance, identity, application security, platform/infrastructure security, monitoring, resilience, and data protection.
• Design and implement Secure by Design / security engagement intake workflows that streamline how engineering teams initiate governance/security processes (e.g., rationalizing questionnaires, automating routing/approvals, reducing cycle time).
• Build or tailor controls frameworks and control mappings (e.g., aligned to NIST 800-53 and enterprise policies/standards) and translate them into actionable engineering requirements and measurable outcomes.
• Conduct DevSecOps current-state assessments (people/process/technology), facilitate leading-practices workshops, and produce multi-year roadmaps with sequenced initiatives, resourcing, and cost estimates.
• Define DevSecOps operating model options (team structure, service catalog, intake, RACI, governance forums) and drive executive decision-making on the target approach.
• Embed security into CI/CD and SDLC workflows (requirements, design, build, test, deploy, operate) including security controls, evidence capture, and release/go-live governance.
• Advance software supply chain security (e.g., dependency risk, artifact integrity, code signing, PKI/HSM considerations) and guide implementation patterns appropriate to client context.
• Support container and runtime security assessments and backlog acceleration; help teams prioritize security work without stalling delivery.
• Define metrics, reporting, and dashboards (e.g., delivery throughput, control compliance, intake cycle time, risk burndown, vulnerability trends) to improve transparency and accountability.
• Function as the primary day-to-day client interface, building rapport and driving outcomes across Engineering, Security, Risk/Compliance, and Operations.
• Assist in business development (scope, estimates, pricing, proposals) and contribute to eminence (POVs/whitepapers) and internal enablement
