About the role We are seeking a Google Workspace Security Architect with strong hands-on experience in Google Workspace security hardening, identity and access governance, and endpoint security assessment. This is an execution-focused role rather than a broad strategy advisory position. The consultant will evaluate the client’s current environment, identify security improvements, document findings, develop remediation plans, and support decision-making around endpoint management and security controls. Success in this role requires a structured methodology, strong documentation discipline, and the ability to produce professional client-facing deliverables, including remediation trackers, evidence packages, governance documentation, and executive summaries.

Conduct identity and access governance reviews, including user/group/admin access validation, privileged access reviews, MFA coverage assessments, OAuth/SSO application inventory reviews, and joiner/mover/leaver process evaluations. Develop and maintain cybersecurity documentation, including remediation plans, governance procedures, exception registers, evidence packages, quarterly access review templates, and executive-ready reports. Build and analyze endpoint inventories and assess security controls such as device encryption, patch management, local administrator rights, screen-lock policies, device enrollment, and offboarding/wipe procedures. Provide decision support and recommendations regarding endpoint management and security solutions, including Google Endpoint Management, Microsoft Intune, CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, and MSP/MSSP-managed models (decision support only; no tooling implementation required). Collaborate with project stakeholders while adhering to established documentation standards, confidentiality requirements, and quality review processes. What We’re Looking For Must-Have Experience. Hands-on experience securing and administering Google Workspace environments, including security hardening and policy implementation. Strong background in identity and access management (IAM), privileged access reviews, MFA implementation, access governance, and user lifecycle management. Experience conducting cybersecurity assessments and creating remediation plans, risk registers, audit evidence packages, and security documentation. Familiarity with endpoint security controls, device management, and endpoint governance best practices. Excellent documentation, reporting, and communication skills with the ability to produce client-ready deliverables. Professional-level English communication skills with the ability to interact directly with stakeholders. Nice-to-haves Experience with Google Endpoint Management. Experience evaluating or working with Microsoft Intune, CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, and Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. Experience supporting cybersecurity compliance, audit preparation, or security gap remediation initiatives. Consulting or client-facing cybersecurity experience.
