Location : Remote / Washington, DC or major cybersecurity hub preferred

Engagement : Advisory Leadership (High-Trust Council Role)

Compensation : Retainer + Honorarium

Reports to : Chair, Klaritee Federal Safety Council

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. Your expertise will ensure that IGI is deployed within environments that meet the highest standards of security, resilience, and protection against adversarial misuse.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Cybersecurity Leadership & Secure Design Governance

  • Serve as the Council’s chief authority on cybersecurity, infrastructure security, and system-hardening strategy.
  • Oversee secure deployment standards for IGI across :
  • federal agencies
  • state systems
  • critical infrastructure
  • cloud environments
  • sensitive operations
  • regulated industries
  • Develop guidelines for secure hosting, encryption protocols, access controls, and zero-trust architectures.

Threat Detection, Prevention & Incident Response Oversight

  • 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 substructurs with Directors overseeing Defense, National Security, Public Safety, and State Systems.

  • Ensure alignment with federal cybersecurity standards and compliance programs, including :
  • NIST structures
  • CIS controls

  • CISA directives
  • DoD cybersecurity mandates
  • Lead security posture reviews for new IGI use cases and infrastructure proposals.
  • Build secure deployment patterns for high-trust environments where clarity, determinism, and safety are essential.
  • Interagency & Critical-Infrastructure Engagement

  • Represent the cybersecurity domain in federal, state, and interagency conversations.
  • 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

    Candidates typically include :

  • Former CISO, Deputy CISO, Cyber Command leader, NSA enterprise architect, or DoD cybersecurity executive
  • Senior leaders experienced in securing :
  • federal or defense systems
  • critical infrastructure
  • major public-sector platforms
  • national-security operations
  • Individuals with deep expertise in :
  • cyber threat intelligence
  • incident response
  • secure cloud architecture
  • access control systems
  • risk management
  • Professionals known for strong judgment, technical maturity, and operational discipline
  • WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

    The Director of Cybersecurity, Infrastructure & Secure Architecture :

  • 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. These roles, however, require demonstrated senior-level experience, operational judgment, and domain authority. Please evaluate your background honestly before applying.

    Submissions that are clearly misaligned with the stated requirements, including applications lacking the necessary credentials, executive experience, or operational relevance, may be permanently removed from consideration for future opportunities at Klaritee.

    This policy protects the integrity of the Klaritee Federal Safety Council, ensures a fair and responsible review process, and preserves the time of applicants whose expertise genuinely aligns with these nationally impactful roles.

    If you are truly qualified, this notice will not deter you. If you are not, it is your signal to refrain.
