• Review business-unit architectures and change requests, and approve, reject or improve them against the standard.
• Own security architecture: IAM and least privilege, encryption, boundary protection, secrets handling and the security baseline every account is measured against.
• Drive vulnerability and compliance posture across the estate (Security Hub, GuardDuty, Config, Inspector) and push remediation through the operations team.
• Produce the reference patterns and documentation that platform and operations engineers build from.
• Act as senior technical escalation for architecture and security incidents.
• Explain architecture and risk decisions to Korean-speaking client and HQ stakeholders, in writing and in meetings.

• 7+ years in cloud infrastructure, including 4+ years designing on AWS at enterprise scale (multi-account, multi-VPC).
• Demonstrable ownership of an AWS multi-account landing zone — Control Tower or an equivalent custom build — including guardrails and account vending.
• Deep AWS security: IAM policy design, SCPs, KMS, VPC security architecture, centralized logging and the AWS security services.
• Track record of governing other teams’ designs: architecture review, standards enforcement, saying no constructively.
• Professional working fluency in Korean and English.
• Able to work onsite in Irvine, CA.

⭐ Desirable Experience

• AWS Solutions Architect Professional or Security Specialty
• MSP or consultancy background
• Automotive, manufacturing or Korean-affiliated enterprise experience
• SOC 2 / ISO 27001 / NIST control mapping
