As a security architect, we need to review and define security standards and controls in every initiative being implemented. My day to day involves making sure the right security policies and procedures are being followed in any data initiative. On the other hand, I evaluate any new security tools and software to be implemented in benefit of the whole data tribe. This activity involves managing projects since the beginning to the end (pilots to the final state), including budget and contract management

I'm in charge of getting users requirements come to life. This process starts with a requirement engineering process indeed. So afterwards it can turn into technical requirements. These ones are described in what we call a "Technical Design". The following phase is Development. We work with some software providers for this phase, so my main tasks involve project management (time, cost and scope management) along with our software factory partners. For quality assurance process, we handle have Testing phases: Unit Testing, Integration Testing and Quality Assurance; the last one is managed along with our Software Quality Assurance Department. Last but not least, the process concludes with Production Implementation Phase and Post Production Following, which in some projects contain business and technical pilots so the final requirement are totally fulfilled.
