Job Description


The Head of Security Architecture serves as the enterprise’s lead architect for a cognitive and autonomous security ecosystem, bridging the gap between sophisticated industrial (OT) environments and frontier AI-driven innovation. This role is responsible for architecting a self-healing, intelligence-led security fabric that directly enables Polpharma’s business agility and digital growth. By institutionalizing "AI-Security-by-Design," the position ensures that security acts as a fundamental business accelerator. The role plays a pivotal part in the enterprise’s AI transition, orchestrating architectural guardrails for the secure, scalable consumption of agentic AI systems while maintaining uncompromising regulatory and operational integrity.

Key Responsibilities:

Cognitive Architectural Strategy & Enablement:

  • Defining and executing a Group-wide security architecture roadmap that prioritizes autonomous defense and AI-native infrastructure
  • Translating frontier AI threat intelligence into scalable, self-healing architectural patterns that eliminate technical debt and accelerate digital trust
  • Governing security technology investments with a focus on AI-driven ROI and architectural resilience in a multi-cloud and edge-computing environment

Frontier AI Security & Model Orchestration:

  • Architecting and implementing a "Security-for-AI" framework to protect the entire lifecycle of proprietary LLM/ML models, from training data lineage to adversarial defense
  • Designing technical guardrails against model inversion, prompt injection, and algorithmic poisoning to ensure the reliability of autonomous pharmaceutical systems
  • Serving as the principal authority on AI-to-AI security protocols, ensuring safe interaction between autonomous agentic systems and core business infrastructure

Autonomous Cross-Domain Resilience (IT/OT/AI):

  • Architecting the cognitive convergence of IT, OT, and AI environments, ensuring seamless and secure data flows across critical manufacturing and clinical assets.
  • Overseeing the deployment of "Self-Healing" Zero Trust architectures that automatically adjust security postures based on real-time anomaly detection
  • Championing "Policy-as-Code" and "Architecture-as-Code" (AaC) to ensure continuous compliance and rapid, automated remediation of architectural vulnerabilities

Leadership & Capability Building

  • Chairing the Cognitive Architecture Review Board, resolving complex trade-offs between innovation speed, algorithmic transparency, and security risk
  • Mentoring and developing a high-performing team of AI-Security architects, fostering a culture of technical rigor, continuous innovation, and cross-domain collaboration
  • Driving enterprise-wide AI-literacy among technical stakeholders to ensure that "Security-by-Design" is an automated, non-intrusive feature of all digital projects

What We Offer

  • Employment contract
  • Work in a modern, international pharmaceutical environment
  • Hybrid or digital working model
  • Competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits package, including:
    • private medical care,
    • Multisport subsidy,
    • lunch card,
    • life insurance,
    • cafeteria system,
    • company car or car allowance
    • Employee Pension Program (3.5% employer contribution),
    • relocation package (if applicable),
    • training and all necessary work tools,
    • one additional day off per year.
  • Strong focus on development and learning opportunities
Qualifications:

  • Master’s degree in security architecture, AI/Machine Learning, or Computer Science
  • Min.5 years of leadership in security architecture, with extensive experience in multi-cloud and OT/ICS environments
  • Mastery of AI-security frameworks and recognized expert-level certifications (e.g., CISSP-ISSAP, TOGAF, or specialized AI-Security credentials)
  • Exceptional ability to communicate the strategic value of autonomous security architecture to C-level and board stakeholders
  • Fluent Polish and English
