| Description: |
Pinpoint Asia is partnering with a premier global quantitative investment manager to appoint a Defense Security Architect. This is a high-visibility, technical leadership role focused on securing core, high-frequency trading infrastructure.
Following a strategic refinement, this role is strictly focused on Defensive Architecture, Secure Design, and Code Review. This is not a Red Team/Offensive Security position.
Key Responsibilities
- Secure Architecture: Define and validate security reference architectures across hybrid environments (AWS, On-Prem, and Colocation).
- Deep Code Review: Partner with elite developers to perform security code reviews (Python, C++, Go) to identify logic flaws before production.
- Threat Modeling: Lead technical risk assessments and "design-stage" threat modeling to ensure resilience against emerging threats.
- Engineering Enablement: Act as a "Security Consultant" to engineering teams, integrating security tooling into the SDLC without disrupting business velocity.
- Compliance & Validation: Perform configuration reviews and compliance checks against industry and regulatory standards.
Requirements
- Experience: 5–10 years of deep expertise in Security Architecture, Application Security, or Product Security.
- Technical Foundation: A strong background in software development. You must be comfortable "talking code" with world-class engineers.
- Cloud Expertise: In-depth knowledge of AWS security, network security, and platform vulnerabilities.
- Architectural Mindset: Proven ability to perform threat modeling (e.g., STRIDE) and review technical designs for security weaknesses.
- Communication: Exceptional ability to influence technical stakeholders through factual reasoning.
