Key Responsibilities
Cloud Security Ownership
• Define and execute Omilia’s cloud security strategy across all deployment models: multi-tenant SaaS,
exclusive tenant, private cloud, and hybrid.
• Own the AWS security architecture including IAM, VPC design, GuardDuty, Security Hub, CloudTrail, KMS
key management, and secrets management.
• Lead infrastructure hardening programmes using golden image pipelines, CIS Benchmarks, and automated
compliance scanning.
• Ensure network segmentation, tenant data isolation, and zero-trust principles are implemented and
maintained across all environments.
Compliance & Certification Leadership
• Own the annual renewal and continuous readiness of FedRAMP, SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS Level
1, HIPAA, and GDPR across the cloud platform.
• Drive the EU AI Act compliance programme as it applies to high-risk AI system classifications relevant to

• Act as primary technical liaison with external auditors, QSAs, and penetration testing firms.
AI & Data Security
• Define data security controls for voice data processing pipelines, including real-time PCI redaction, voice
biometric data storage, and training data anonymisation.
• Assess security implications of LLM and generative AI integrations (Pathfinder, miniApps, RAG pipelines)
and establish guardrails for model input/output security.
• Own the subprocessor security assessment programme and ensure DPA/Security Exhibit obligations are
met across the third-party supply chain.
Security Engineering & Operations
• Lead vulnerability management: SAST/DAST integration in CI/CD, container image scanning, CVE triage,
patch SLAs.
• Own incident response for cloud-tier events: detection, containment, eradication, recovery, and post-incident
review.
• Define and operate security monitoring and SIEM coverage for the OCP platform, ensuring audit logs are
immutable, queryable, and exportable.
• Collaborate with engineering on secure SDLC practices, threat modelling for new features, and security
review gates in the release process.
Stakeholder Engagement
• Support Sales and Customer Success in enterprise security questionnaires, customer security reviews, and
contract security exhibit negotiations.
• Represent cloud security posture to the CISO, CTO, and executive team; translate technical risk into
business impact language.
• Engage with CCaaS platform partners (NICE, Five9, Genesys, RingCentral) on integration security
requirements and shared responsibility boundaries.
Requirements:
8+ years in information/cloud security, with at least 4 years in a senior individual contributor or leadership
role.

shared responsibility model.
• Demonstrated experience leading or co-leading at least one FedRAMP authorisation (ATO process) or
equivalent high-assurance compliance programme.
• Strong working knowledge of PCI-DSS, SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and GDPR as they apply to SaaS/cloud
service providers — not just as customer obligations.

management, runtime security).
• Proven ability to produce board-quality security reporting and present to enterprise customers and auditors.
• Professional certification: CISSP, CCSP, AWS Security Specialty, or equivalent. CISA is a plus.
Preferred / Differentiating Experience

• Familiarity with EU AI Act requirements, NIST AI RMF, or AI-specific security governance frameworks.
• Experience securing LLM inference pipelines, RAG architectures, or real-time audio processing workloads.
