C2 systems are critical for enabling efficient coordination, decision-making, and operational response in various security and emergency situations. Job Title: Solution Architect - C2 Solutions for Site Protection and Physical Security Job Overview: As a Solution Architect specializing in C2 (Command and Control) Solutions for Site Protection and Physical Security , you will be responsible for architecting and overseeing the implementation, the integration of advanced C2 systems that enable real-time monitoring, decision-making, and coordination of physical security operations. Your role will focus on creating a robust, scalable, and resilient architecture that ensures the efficient management of security operations, emergency response, and site protection protocols across multiple sites and infrastructures. Key Responsibilities: Design and Architect C2 Systems for Security Operations: Architect and design Command and Control (C2) systems tailored to manage and coordinate site protection, surveillance, and emergency response efforts. Develop end-to-end solutions integrating physical security technologies (CCTV, access control, intrusion detection) with centralized C2 platforms to enable real-time monitoring, decision-making, and operational coordination. Ensure C2 systems are capable of providing situational awareness, threat identification, incident reporting, and resource management across multiple security operations. System Integration: Lead the integration of C2 solutions with various physical security systems, such as surveillance cameras, access control systems, alarm systems, and emergency communication platforms. Design solutions that allow seamless interoperability between C2 systems, IoT devices, and security monitoring platforms to enable fast, informed decisions during critical events. Oversee the integration of C2 platforms with broader enterprise systems, including IT infrastructure, facility management, and other operational systems. Command Center Development and Optimization: Design and optimize the physical and virtual Command Centers (Security Operations Centers) where security personnel can monitor and respond to incidents in real-time. Ensure C2 platforms support visualization tools like dashboards, maps, and alerts to provide operators with an intuitive and effective interface for monitoring site conditions. Integrate artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and predictive analytics to enhance the decision-making capabilities of C2 systems. Real-Time Data Management and Communication: Enable the real-time collection, processing, and dissemination of data across all security systems within the C2 environment. Develop communication systems for quick dissemination of security alerts, incident reports, and coordination between security teams, emergency services, and leadership. Ensure that C2 solutions provide full visibility of ongoing security incidents and site conditions to support critical decisions and prompt response actions. Emergency Response and Incident Management: Design C2 solutions that support emergency protocols, including rapid deployment of resources, lockdown procedures, and coordination with external emergency services (fire, medical, law enforcement). Integrate incident response and escalation workflows into the C2 system to ensure consistent handling of emergencies and security breaches. Develop automated triggers and workflows within the C2 platform to expedite responses to security incidents, minimizing downtime and damage. Compliance and Regulatory Adherence: Ensure that all C2 security systems comply with relevant regulatory and industry standards (e.g., ISO 27001, NFPA, GDPR, physical security regulations). Work closely with compliance officers to ensure that C2 systems adhere to legal and ethical guidelines related to data privacy, video surveillance, and incident reporting. Continuous Improvement and Innovation: Stay up-to-date with the latest trends in C2 technology, physical security, and smart city technologies to incorporate new features and capabilities into the C2 system. Innovate to improve system resilience, scalability, and performance, ensuring the C2 solution can evolve to meet new security threats and operational demands. Conduct regular system reviews, audits, and updates to ensure the C2 platform remains efficient, secure, and responsive to evolving needs. Collaboration and Stakeholder Management: Collaborate with site security managers, IT teams, facilities management, and external contractors to ensure the C2 solution is deployed effectively and meets operational goals. Provide leadership in security architecture discussions, offering expertise on best practices and future trends in physical security and C2 technologies. Guide teams on the deployment, integration, and operation of the C2 systems, ensuring smooth implementation and user adoption. Key Skills and Qualifications: Educational Background: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Information Security, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field. Certifications in Command and Control systems or security management (e.g., Certified Protection Professional (CPP), Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP)) are highly desirable. Experience: Proven experience (typically 5+ years) in designing and implementing C2 systems for site protection, physical security, or security operations. experience in integrating security technologies with C2 platforms, such as surveillance systems, access control, incident management tools, and communication systems. Expertise in developing or integrating real-time monitoring systems, dashboard solutions, and communication platforms for security operations centers (SOCs) or control rooms. Technical Skills: Deep understanding of physical security technologies, including CCTV, access control, perimeter detection, alarm systems, and intrusion prevention systems (IPS). Proficiency in C2 systems, IoT-based security solutions, emergency communication systems, and monitoring platforms. Familiarity with network security, cloud-based solutions, and software platforms used for integrating and managing C2 systems. Experience with visualization tools and software (e.g., GIS mapping, dashboard tools) to support security operations. Soft Skills: analytical and problem-solving skills to architect and design complex security solutions. Excellent communication skills, with the ability to work closely with both technical teams and non-technical stakeholders (e.g., security personnel, executives). Ability to work under pressure, making quick and effective decisions during critical incidents and security breaches. Leadership skills to guide cross-functional teams and lead the deployment of large-scale security systems. Key Attributes: Innovative Thinker: Ability to innovate and design next-generation C2 solutions to enhance security management and site protection. Strategic Vision: ability to align security technologies with business objectives, ensuring operational resilience and security readiness. Proactive and Results-Driven: Always focused on improving system effectiveness and ensuring that security operations are responsive and adaptive to changing threats. Collaboration-Focused: Ability to lead and work collaboratively with diverse teams across security, IT, and external partners to deliver comprehensive solutions. Opportunity to work with cutting-edge security technologies and C2 solutions across various industries such as corporate, government, critical infrastructure, and industrial sites. A dynamic and high-impact environment, where your work will directly contribute to enhancing the safety and operational efficiency of large organizations. Travel may be required to support the implementation of C2 systems at different sites or to collaborate with vendors and contractors.
