Job Description

AbbVie is looking for a Security Architect with experience in mergers and acquisitions to join our Information Security Strategy and Intelligence group.

This position can be virtual/remote anywhere in U.S.

AbbVie’s Information Security group engages with our business development teams through several stages of a company relationship, whether it’s a research-sharing relationship or an acquisition. We provide advisory services to reduce both risk and technical friction in these transactions.

As a Security Architect, your will act as a single-point-of-contact between security and other technical and business teams, operating across both operational and strategic levels, developing and coordinating design and advisory responsibilities with different areas of the information security group on individual acquisitions and research ventures. You will interact with internal research and business intelligence teams, technical teams, and other members of the information security group to develop and deliver security products and services. You will play a key role in further shaping the services this program is delivering, while ensuring in-flight acquisitions have the right security services provided at the right times.

This role will reside within the Cyber Threat Intelligence team, with a “dotted-line” relationship with our security architecture group.

Responsibilities:

  • Partner with infrastructure and technology teams, security teams, and acquisition target teams to coordinate core security and tech services during an acquisition or divestiture
  • Partnering with infrastructure, tech and security teams to develop, document, and deploy secure design patterns for collaborations with strategic alliance partners
  • Partner with internal security and technical teams to develop new security playbooks and services focused on business alliances and strategic acquisitions

Qualifications

Ideal candidates will have practical experience in a relevant discipline of security architecture (Cloud Security, AppSec, Network Security, Identity), and can speak to practical solutions they have designed and successfully implemented. Experience in the following is preferred:

  • Bachelor's Degree with 9 years’ experience; Master's Degree with 8 years’ experience; PhD with 4 years’ experience.
  • At least five years’ experience in an information security role, preferably as a Security Architect or Security Engineer
  • Direct experience with designing and/or providing solutions related to mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, and/or multi-company collaborations
  • Experience with a variety of security tooling and capabilities, preferably with some hands-on/operational exposure (self-hosted and cloud)
  • Working knowledge of popular cloud platforms and associated security solutions (AWS, GCP, Azure) and collaboration platforms (M365, Slack)
  • Working knowledge of Active Directory and related security constructs (domains, forests, trusts, etc.)
  • GCFE, GCFA, GDSA, GCTI, GCIA, GCDA, GEIR certifications are strongly preferred.
  • A solid understanding of industry security standards, such as NIST 800, ISO 27001, etc.
  • Related technical/industry certifications (e.g. SANS, AWS, etc.)
