About this role
Key Responsibilities
1. Security risk assessment and solution design
• Conduct site surveys and security risk / vulnerability assessments; define security zones,
threat scenarios and layered (deter–detect–delay–respond) 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.
2. 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.
3. 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 new 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.
4. 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.
