Sr. Cloud Cybersecurity Architect

Your Job

The Sr.

Cloud Cybersecurity Architect plays a critical role in shaping and advancing Molex's cloud security strategy by defining the architectures, guardrails, and patterns that enable teams to build and operate securely at scale.

This role is responsible for designing security-by-default cloud architectures and embedding security into platforms, pipelines, and cloud-native services across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.

Operating at the intersection of cloud platforms, application development, and cybersecurity, this role focuses on architectural enablement rather than enforcement, establishing standards, reusable patterns, and automated controls that allow teams to move fast while managing risk.

The architect partners closely with cloud platform, application, and security operations teams to evolve Molex's Zero Trust posture, identity-first access models, and Infrastructure as Code driven security controls aligned with modern enterprise and manufacturing realities.

Our Team

Molex Cybersecurity Operations team plays a pivotal role in safeguarding the organization's complex global manufacturing ecosystem.

In an environment where compliance with a myriad of international laws, industry standards, and regulatory requirements is non-negotiable, the team proactively develops, enhances, and operates robust cybersecurity programs designed to fortify the company's overall security posture.

By swiftly responding to cybersecurity incidents and collaborating seamlessly with IT and digital teams worldwide, the team ensures that both preventative and detective measures evolve continuously to counter ever-emerging threats.

This role also works in close partnership with Koch Security Operations, focusing upstream on security architecture, design, and enablement - critical domains that help to systematically reduce risk and prevent incidents before they occur, ensuring uninterrupted operations and protecting sensitive data across all global sites.

What You Will Do



* Define, evolve and evangelize cloud security architectures, reference designs, and guardrails that enable secure-by-design practices across hybrid and multi-cloud environments


* Establish and maintain security standards and architectural patterns for cloud-native services, containerized workloads, serverless architectures, and identity-driven access models


* Embed security into Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD pipelines, and platform capabilities to enable automated, scalable security controls


* Partner with cloud platform, application, and development teams to provide architectural guidance, threat modeling, and design reviews aligned with Zero Trust principles


* Design and guide implementation of identity and access architectures, including IAM, least-privilege access, and continuous validation


* Collaborate with Security Operations and Incident Response teams to ensure architectural decisions support effective detection, response, and recovery
