Zero Trust Security Architect, Stockholm

Nordic Investin is recruiting a Zero Trust Security Architect on behalf of one of our partner companies. You want technical choices, delivery and production behaviour to reinforce each other, even when the constraints are difficult.

The partner is strengthening its capability in zero-trust architecture across identity devices networks and applications. You will connect security architecture, identity and micro-segmentation while ensuring that policy and threat modelling receive appropriate discipline. The aim is practical progress that colleagues can use, leaders can evaluate and the organisation can sustain.

The environment rewards early questions, visible trade-offs and engineering discipline. Security and operability belong in the design.

You will work with product, architecture, security, operations and domain colleagues. The partner values short feedback loops, evidence from real systems and direct communication.

This role calls for visible leadership and disciplined decision making. You are expected to make trade-offs visible, recognise when a decision needs wider expertise and move work forward without creating unnecessary process.

Own the practical direction for zero-trust architecture across identity devices networks and applications.

Translate goals and constraints into a clear approach for security architecture and identity.

Establish useful standards, routines or decision artefacts around micro-segmentation.

Coordinate stakeholders and dependencies affecting policy.

Use evidence and measurable outcomes to improve threat modelling.

Strengthen knowledge sharing and sustainable ownership through roadmaps.

Relevant experience delivering zero-trust architecture across identity devices networks and applications in a demanding environment.

Strong working knowledge of security architecture and identity.

Practical experience applying micro-segmentation and policy.

Ability to assess priorities, risks and trade-offs involving threat modelling.

Evidence of clear stakeholder communication and dependable end-to-end ownership.

Professional English and the judgement to work with sensitive or business-critical information.

Experience that would add value

Experience from regulated enterprises and complex hybrid estates.

Exposure to roadmaps in a cross-functional or multi-team environment.

Swedish language skills or experience working across Nordic organisations.

A background that can succeed here

Your background may be product engineering, platform work, enterprise technology or consulting. What matters is technical depth connected to user and business consequences.
