About the Role

This role owns the physical security design program end to end, translating threat and risk into a coherent, standardized, buildable design. You will set the reference designs and standards our delivery teams and integrators build against, and you will own the design package to a level of completeness that lets integrators build directly from it. This is an individual contributor role at the outset, with the scope to build and lead a design team as Cipher grows.

Responsibilities

Develop and maintain the corporate physical security design standards, reference designs, and technical guidelines.
Lead the technology strategy: platform and device standardization and sequences of operation.
Incorporate operational requirements and lessons learned into the design standards.
Own the physical security design lifecycle from concept and basis of design, through construction administration and record documentation.
Drive consistent, on-time production of every security design package handed to Construction.
Hold every design package to a standard of completeness and accuracy that lets integrators build directly from it.
Translate threat and vulnerability assessments into layered security designs appropriate to a critical-infrastructure environment.
Own the security scope of coordination with the architectural, civil, structural, MEP, telecommunications, and IT/network engineering disciplines.
Run formal design reviews at each milestone (SD, DD, CD), including constructability review and security-lens value engineering.
Provide cost and constructability input to project estimates.
Direct design consultants and EORs through CA services: responding to RFIs, reviewing product submittals, and conducting strategically timed site visits.
Own RFI resolution and incorporation, directing EOR responses to field questions and folding agreed changes back into the design.
Own final record and as-built documentation, incorporating field redlines, RFIs, and change-order additions.
Select, direct, and hold accountable the external design consultants, EORs, and specialty vendors.
Serve as the senior physical security design authority for the organization, representing and defending design decisions to executive leadership, customers, and authorities having jurisdiction (AHJs).

Requirements

Eight or more years in physical and electronic security systems (ESS), including several years leading design work, a design team, or design consultants.
A proven track record turning over complex ESS designs on schedule.
Demonstrated depth in access control, intrusion detection, video management, and integration architecture.
Demonstrated ability to translate threat and vulnerability assessments into layered security designs.
Experience coordinating security design with civil, architectural, electrical, and telecommunications disciplines.
Experience running or directing construction administration for ESS scopes of work.
Working fluency with the network and cybersecurity considerations of modern security systems.
Working fluency with the codes and standards that govern security design.
Comfort in the tools of design coordination and review, such as Revit, AutoCAD, and Bluebeam.
Working knowledge of Genetec, or an equivalent enterprise access control, intrusion alarm, and video surveillance platform.
Demonstrated leadership across teams and through external partners.
Excellent communication and presentation skills with executive leadership and customers.
Design experience in data center, mission-critical, or other critical-infrastructure construction.
Experience designing to customer- or tenant-imposed physical security standards.
Familiarity with contractual security frameworks such as ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II.
CPP, PSP, CSPM, or PMP certification.
