Full time
This position will be fully remote and can be hired anywhere in the continental U.S.
The Principal Cybersecurity Advisor serves as a senior technical leader within Optiv's Cisco Center of Excellence. This individual brings broad, current experience across Cisco enterprise networking and network security and helps clients translate business requirements, cyber risk, and infrastructure priorities into practical architecture strategies.
The Principal Advisor leads technical discovery and solution strategy for complex Cisco opportunities, advises client executives and technical stakeholders, and connects Cisco capabilities with Optiv services and the broader security portfolio. The role also develops reusable technical assets, supports field enablement, and helps regional Client Solutions Advisors engage Cisco opportunities with greater consistency and confidence.
This is an individual-contributor technical leadership role. It works across organizational boundaries through expertise and influence rather than direct authority over regional Client Solutions Advisors, sales teams, Partner Alliances, marketing, or delivery organizations.
How you’ll make an impact
Define and maintain the Cisco COE's technical strategy across enterprise networking, network security, secure access, segmentation, digital experience, and related Cisco architectures.
Lead technical discovery for complex client opportunities and translate business goals, risk, operating requirements, and existing investments into clear architecture recommendations.
Advise CISOs, CIOs, network leaders, security leaders, architects, and engineering teams on Cisco strategy, modernization options, architectural tradeoffs, and multiyear roadmaps.
Lead the technical portion of Cisco pursuits from early qualification through solution design, proposal development, technical validation, and client decision.
