Senior Azure Government Security & Compliance Architect
Position Overview
- Position Type: Part-Time Consultant / Technical Vetting & Compliance Authority
- Target Allocation: 8–10 hours/week average (Note: Workload rises substantially during security engineering phases, technical readiness reviews, and the structural execution of Deliverables 10, 11, and 12).
- Technical Reality: This is an elite compliance role. The security architecture, authorization documentation, and continuous monitoring controls are too complex to distribute casually among traditional software developers. You will hold complete technical ownership over the platform's defensive validation strategy.
- Location: Remote. May require occasional travel to Tallahassee based on sprint completion.
This platform will unify statewide oversight, tracking abnormal spending patterns, contract vulnerabilities, and fraud/waste/abuse risks across up to 35 state agencies. Because this is a high-visibility, firm-fixed-price (FFP) state government contract, you will maintain absolute technical accountability for establishing an infrastructure that aligns perfectly with state and federal statutory requirements, preparing the system for full production authorization and independent validation.
Principal Responsibilities
- Compliance Gap Analysis: Develop a comprehensive security compliance control crosswalk to identify, map, and remediate technical gaps against strict federal and state high-control baselines.
- Identity & Access Architecture: Define and enforce a granular, role-based access control (RBAC) framework and end-to-end user lifecycle management model aligned strictly to least-privilege principles and multi-factor authentication (MFA) enforcement.
- Audit Logging & Monitoring: Architect comprehensive audit logging, monitoring, and retention specifications for user actions, administrative events, system configurations, and raw data access layers to ensure absolute traceability.
- Configuration Assessment: Conduct exhaustive, formal reviews of cloud, network, storage, and application configuration baselines to actively identify, catalog, and fix misconfigurations.
- Vulnerability & Pentest Coordination: Manage internal and external vulnerability scanning protocols, orchestrate formal penetration testing events, and document the rigorous technical evidence confirming the resolution of high or critical findings.
- Supply Chain Vetting: Perform comprehensive third-party risk assessments, map vendor/sub-vendor code dependencies, and produce a verified Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) alongside a critical service provider register.
- Privilege Access Governance: Develop and execute structured privilege-access reviews to monitor elevated account allocations, analyze account activities, and mitigate credential risk exposure.
- Incident Response Integration: Design and integrate actionable incident response workflows, contact escalation paths, security event reporting routines, and vulnerability patch management lifecycles that conform to state policies.
- Authorization Package Compilation: Compile and validate all technical security artifacts, data-flow dia
