Solution & Security Architect
Location: Glasgow – hybrid working (2‑3 days in the office)
Salary: £63‑79K (plus up to 15% bonus and private healthcare cover)
Permanent, Full Time
ScottishPower Renewables is expanding its Solution & Security Architecture team and is looking for experienced architects to help shape the future of secure, sustainable energy. Based in Glasgow with hybrid flexibility, this role sits at the intersection of cyber security and critical national infrastructure – where the impact is real and the work truly matters.
What you’ll be doing
You will influence how technology is designed, deployed and operated from day one. You will embed secure‑by‑design principles across IT and OT environments and help drive a cultural shift where security and architecture become shared responsibilities.
Whether your strengths lie in engineering, consulting or infrastructure, you will focus on what you do best – from evolving security tooling and capabilities, to advising on complex programmes and shaping solution design, or building resilient, secure infrastructure foundations. Your work will directly support the systems that power renewable energy.
You will collaborate with delivery teams, suppliers and senior stakeholders to design secure solutions, influence key decisions and translate regulatory requirements into practical outcomes. Judgment, communication and the ability to drive change will matter just as much as technical expertise.
Technical areas
- Engineering – evolving our cyber security capability
- Consulting – influence, clarity and architecture leadership
- Infrastructure – resilient foundations matter
What you’ll bring
Strong experience across solution, security or infrastructure domains, along with a pragmatic mindset and confidence to operate across both technical and business environments. Familiarity with frameworks such as NIS CAF, ISO or NIST, and an understanding of modern threat landscapes, will set you up for success.
In return you will gain exposure across critical infrastructure, renewable energy systems and the wider Iberdrola Group, with the opportunity to shape a growing capability and make a tangible impact.
