The DCL is intended to address challenges related to data fragmentation, lack of shared semantics, and inconsistent interpretation of data across systems and products. It establishes a unified layer for representing context, relationships, and meaning, enabling downstream products to operate with greater consistency, interoperability, and intelligence. In addition, the DCL plays a critical role in enabling agentic AI capabilities across the enterprise by providing the structured context and semantic grounding required for intelligent agents to operate reliably. This includes ensuring that agent-driven workflows and decisions are based on consistent, governed, and interpretable data context, reducing risks associated with fragmentation, ambiguity, and lack of control. Within this initiative, we are seeking a Lead Architect to define and guide the conceptual and technical architecture for an enterprise platform that enables teams to publish, discover, and consume standardized data context through self-service. This role will shape the target architecture, integration patterns, and technical standards that support scalable, secure, and production-ready context services across the enterprise. The ideal candidate has deep experience in enterprise architecture, data platforms, semantic technologies, and AI-enabled systems. Familiarity with ontologies, OWL, metadata-driven architectures, agentic AI, prompt engineering, and context engineering is required, as the platform must support both human and AI-driven consumers of context. Key Responsibilities Define the target architecture for the enterprise data context self-service platform. Establish architectural standards and patterns for: context publishing discovery access control versioning validation lineage and provenance observability and monitoring Partner with product, engineering, service design, security, and governance teams to ensure the platform is technically sound and aligned to enterprise needs. Evaluate and recommend technologies and integration patterns including: ontology and semantic modeling approaches OWL/RDF-based systems knowledge graphs semantic layers MCP, A2A, and Timbr-like technologies where applicable Design architecture that supports both self-service user workflows and AI/agentic consumption patterns. Ensure context can move from development to production in a governed, scalable, and supportable way. Define non-functional requirements including performance, resilience, security, compliance, and operational maintainability. Review solution designs and implementation plans to ensure adherence to architectural standards. Create reference architectures, patterns, and decision records to guide implementation teams. Collaborate with platform teams to support long-term scalability, reuse, and interoperability across domains. Help shape how the platform supports agentic AI workflows, including structured prompt context, tool access, and reliable data grounding. Minimum Required Qualifications Bachelors degree 8+ years of experience in enterprise architecture, solution architecture, data architecture, or platform architecture. Strong technical background in data platforms, metadata systems, semantic technologies, or AI infrastructure. Familiarity with ontologies, OWL, RDF, knowledge graphs, and semantic layer concepts. Experience designing platforms that support self-service, enterprise-scale reuse, and governed access. Expertise in agentic AI, prompt engineering, and context engineering concepts. Experience defining and enforcing technical standards across multiple teams. Strong ability to communicate architecture decisions to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Preferred Qualifications Experience with MCP, A2A, Timbr, or similar context-serving or semantic interoperability technologies. Background in enterprise data governance, metadata management, or data catalog architectures. Experience supporting AI-enabled platforms or agentic workflows. Knowledge of production concerns such as observability, testing, CI/CD, identity and access management, and lifecycle management.

You will build workflows that integrate across various security platforms, enabling automation pipelines that support AI-driven defense. This role requires understanding platform capabilities and shaping secure automation patterns that scale. | Candidates should have 1-2 years of experience in security engineering or IT automation, with proficiency in scripting languages like Python and PowerShell. A strong understanding of cybersecurity fundamentals and experience with enterprise platforms is essential. | Job Description Position Summary: We are hiring a Platform Engineer to join the Cybersecurity Automation & AI team. This is not a traditional automation role—you will help design and deliver the next generation of cybersecurity systems through secure, intelligent automation. You will build workflows that integrate across Microsoft Defender XDR, Sentinel, ServiceNow, and other enterprise platforms, enabling automation pipelines that support AI-driven defense and enterprise-scale risk reduction. Job Description: You’ll be working in a forward-leaning engineering function focused on transforming how cybersecurity operates—less detection, more design. The systems you build will be foundational to how we scale AI, automate risk response, and reduce manual toil across the enterprise. As a Platform Engineer, you’ll support the development of cross-platform cybersecurity automation workflows under the direction of the Platform Engineering Lead. You will be expected to go beyond implementation—to understand platform capabilities, evaluate extensibility, and help shape secure automation patterns that scale. This role requires working knowledge of cybersecurity—not just scripting or tool familiarity. You must understand why specific workflows exist (e.g., identity verification, privilege revocation, endpoint containment), what constitutes a secure pattern, and how your automation affects broader enterprise risk posture. You won’t own the tools—but you must deeply understand how to interact with them via APIs, orchestration frameworks, and platform-native automation features. Key Responsibilities: Build and support automation workflows across security platforms such as ServiceNow, Defender XDR, and Sentinel. Learn and apply platform-native capabilities, APIs, and extensibility models to solve real-world security automation challenges. Contribute to orchestration logic that includes trigger conditions, telemetry tagging, enrichment, and response actions. Implement automation scripts and integrations using Python, PowerShell, and REST APIs. Participate in test planning, safety validation, change control, and rollback design. Document technical implementations, integration patterns, and decision logic. Collaborate with engineers and domain owners to identify automation opportunities. Apply cybersecurity understanding to ensure automation is relevant, secure, and impactful. Required Qualifications: 1–2 years of hands-on experience in security engineering, IT automation, or platform integration; candidates with strong project-based or adjacent technical experience will be considered Experience with at least one enterprise platform such as Microsoft Defender, Sentinel, or ServiceNow Proficient in scripting (Python, PowerShell) and building workflows using REST APIs Strong understanding of cybersecurity fundamentals (e.g., least privilege, threat response, asset visibility, risk signals) Ability to translate security goals into platform-appropriate automation Comfortable operating in a federated environment where tools are not owned directly Preferred Qualifications: Experience with ServiceNow Flow Designer or IntegrationHub Exposure to multiple cybersecurity domains such as IAM, endpoint protection, or SIEM Experience building automation in large, regulated environments Familiarity with kill switch design, governance, and rollback in automation workflows Clear documentation and collaboration skills across cross-functional engineering teams Current Employees apply HERE Current Contingent Workers apply HERE US and Puerto Rico Residents Only: Our company is committed to inclusion, ensuring that candidates can engage in a hiring process that exhibits their true capabilities.
