SUMMARY

The Klaritee Federal Safety Council (KFSC) is seeking a senior cybersecurity and secure‑architecture leader to establish and oversee the safety, integrity, and secure deployment standards for Interpretive Geometric Intelligence (IGI) across critical, high‑trust government and public‑sector environments.

As the Director of Cybersecurity, Infrastructure & Secure Architecture, you will serve as the Council’s principal authority on cybersecurity, digital infrastructure, secure system design, and threat prevention.

You bring deep experience defending complex systems against cyber threats, designing security structures for sensitive environments, and ensuring compliance with national standards for trusted computing.

This role is ideal for former cyber command leaders, CISOs, NSA‑level architects, federal cybersecurity executives, or senior CTO / CISO equivalents with firsthand experience securing critical infrastructure, high‑volume public systems, or national‑security‑grade platforms.

Develop guidelines for secure hosting, encryption protocols, access controls, and zero‑trust architectures.

Identify vulnerabilities, threat vectors, and adversarial risks associated with IGI deployments.

Establish standards for monitoring, auditing, and incident response preparedness.

Provide safety recommendations for preventing data breaches, misuse, disinformation injection, or systemic manipulation.

Coordinate cross‑domain security substructures with Directors overseeing Defense, National Security, Public Safety, and State Systems.

Secure Architecture & Compliance Integration

Ensure alignment with federal cybersecurity standards and compliance programs, including :

Provide expert guidance to public‑sector CIOs, CISOs, and infrastructure leaders evaluating IGI for sensitive missions.

Support strategic communication with regulators, oversight bodies, and critical‑infrastructure operators.

Founder & Chair Collaboration

Advise the KFSC‑Chair and Founder on cybersecurity risks, mitigation strategies, and secure deployment requirements.

Translate complex cybersecurity realities into actionable recommendations for Council members.

Ensure all Council safety foundations incorporate strong security principles and long‑term resilience.

IDEAL BACKGROUND

Senior leaders experienced in securing :

Major public‑sector platforms

National‑security operations

Individuals with deep expertise in :

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

Builds a robust cybersecurity foundation for IGI deployment across all sensitive environments.

Ensures deterministic reasoning systems are protected against misuse, exploitation, or integrity failure.

Creates a unified security system that integrates defense, intelligence, public‑safety, and civilian requirements.

Strengthens trust between Klaritee and critical institutions evaluating IGI for mission‑dependent operations.

Provides ongoing security leadership as IGI scales nationally.

WHY JOIN

This role provides a rare opportunity to define the cybersecurity standards, secure‑architecture requirements, and long‑term resilience capabilities for a new category of deterministic reasoning systems, shaping how public institutions embrace clarity, safety, and integrity for decades to come.

HONEST APPLICATION NOTICE

Klaritee receives applications from exceptional leaders across public safety, defense, intelligence, government, cybersecurity, and legal domains.
