Job Summary
As a Sr. Principal Architect, you will serve as the technical cornerstone for a high-impact engineering group that encompasses both our Email Security and Broker Platform teams. This is a unique dual-scope role: you will oversee the architecture of a brand-new, cutting-edge email security solution while simultaneously guiding the evolution of our high-scale Broker Platform - the backbone that enables seamless data integration and communication across the entire Cortex ecosystem.

You aren't just building a product; you are building the foundation upon which the world’s leading cyber-security products integrate and operate.

- Take ownership of the Broker Platform’s scalability, ensuring it can support the explosive growth and diverse data requirements of the Cortex suite.
- Drive the "Zero to One" architecture for new email security offerings, ensuring they leverage the full power of our platform infrastructure.
- Lead technical "RFC" (Request for Comments) reviews, making critical decisions on tech stacks, data modeling, and distributed system patterns.
- Act as the bridge between engineering, product, and site reliability (SRE) to ensure that architectural designs translate into operational excellence.
