Key Responsibilities
1. Security risk assessment and solution design
Conduct site surveys and security risk / vulnerability assessments; define security zones,
threat scenarios and layered (deterdetectdelayrespond) protection concepts.
Design integrated solutions: IP CCTV, video management systems (VMS), AI video analytics, access control, turnstiles and entrance automation, perimeter intrusion detection, vehicle access control and command & control centres.
Produce design deliverables: camera placement and field-of-view plans (DORI),
access control schematics, door hardware schedules, network and storage architecture,
single-line diagrams, rack layouts and cable schedules.
Size infrastructure correctly: bandwidth, storage and retention, server/compute
(including GPU for analytics), redundancy and failover, UPS/power and PoE budgets.
Design for compliance and cybersecurity: ONVIF interoperability, IEC 62676, IEC
62443 practice, secure device hardening, and Indian regulations such as MeitY/STQC
CCTV certification requirements, along with sector norms (e.g. BCAS for airports, ISPS
Code for ports).
Coordinate with civil, electrical, fire & safety and IT teams on poles, trenching, ducts,
door hardware, power and network readiness.
- Pre-sales, bids and commercials
Own technical responses to RFPs, RFQs and tenders (including GeM, CPPP, PSU, port and airport authority tenders): compliance matrices, deviations, technical write-ups and presentations.
Prepare accurate BOQs and costings with the commercial team; offer value-engineered options without compromising security outcomes.
Ensure tender compliance, including Make in India / PPP-MII, restrictions on country-oforigin where applicable, OEM authorisation (MAF), warranty and AMC terms.
Run product demonstrations, analytics proofs of concept and pilots; present solutions to
CSOs, plant heads, CISOs and administration leaders.
Support sales in account planning, opportunity qualification and win strategy for large and multi-site deals.
- OEM and partner management
Act as Syntel's technical point of contact with security OEMs and national distributors in
India; secure deal registrations, pricing and OEM design support.
Maintain partner tiers and certification targets; track product roadmaps, cybersecurity advisories and end-of-life notices.
Evaluate recent technologies (AI analytics, cloud VMS, mobile credentials, radar and thermal detection) and recommend portfolio additions,
including opportunities to integrate Syntel's own AI video analytics.
- Implementation and project leadership
Lead design-to-delivery handover: approved drawings, configuration standards, IP plans,
test procedures and acceptance criteria.
Provide technical leadership to project managers, engineers and subcontractors during installation, configuration, integration and commissioning.
Lead integration across subsystems: VMS with access control, fire alarm, PA, ANPR,
intrusion and PSIM; integration with HRMS, SAP/ERP and visitor management systems.
Run factory/site acceptance tests and sign off on system performance, including analytics accuracy, before customer handover.
Resolve escalated technical issues and change requests; manage design risks against scope, schedule and budget.
Define as-built documentation, SOPs for control room operators, user training and
AMC/support handover.
5. Practice building
Build reference architectures, standard design templates, BOQ libraries and proposal content for key verticals (manufacturing, ports, airports, enterprise campuses).
Mentor pre-sales and project engineers; drive OEM certification plans for the team.
Work with Syntel's networking, unified communication and R&D; teams on integrated,
differentiated offerings.
