  • Establish technical direction and architectural standards for scalable, resilient, and automated security solutions.
  • Translate firm-wide security objectives into measurable engineering roadmaps and milestones.
  • Manage team resources, budget, staffing, and profit and loss for the security engineering department.

What we're looking for

  • Experience running teams of engineers delivering security solutions on cloud-based platforms and applications.
  • Experience building security engineering products and platforms used by developers and security practitioners at scale.
  • Experience developing and leading globally distributed, cross-functional engineering teams.
  • Experience hiring, developing, and recognizing top engineering and technical leadership talent.
  • Experience leading a product as a product owner or product manager, including roadmap ownership and stakeholder alignment.
  • Strong expertise in endpoint, server, and workload protection technologies across modern enterprise environments.
  • Demonstrated ability to deliver AI-enabled or automation-driven platforms that materially improve security outcomes.
  • Experience designing and operating container security capabilities across large-scale Kubernetes or containerized environments.
  • Experience building internal developer or security platforms within large, regulated enterprises (preferred).
  • Familiarity with secure software development lifecycles and product security operating models (preferred).
  • Experience integrating security controls into CI/CD, cloud, and infrastructure platforms (preferred).
