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.

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

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.

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
