Responsibilities
Own and execute the information security strategy across the organization, ensuring alignment with business goals.
Actively manage day‑to‑day security operations, including threat detection, response, and remediation, as well as overseeing the performance and integrity of security tools and platforms.
Lead incident response efforts, personally directing or delegating tasks to internal teams (security specialists, server, and network management teams) to ensure swift and effective remediation of threats.
Ensure that the organization meets all security governance, risk management, and compliance requirements (e.g., GDPR, CCPA, PCI‑DSS, SOX), taking direct ownership of audits and compliance initiatives.
Comfortable stepping into the middle of security issues and leading the organization (technical & non‑technical) to effective solutions.
Have a servant leadership attitude on the area of security awareness. Seek moments when the organization can learn and improve our security stance.
Be an active “doer” who works closely with technical teams, ensuring successful implementation of security measures across infrastructure, network, and application layers.

Lead vulnerability management, penetration testing, and patch management processes, driving teams to timely and efficient results.
Work in a matrixed environment, coordinating security efforts across multiple teams (server, network, applications) where direct management isn’t always possible. Collaborate and lead through influence and directive leadership.
Act as a hands‑on leader for internal and external security teams during critical security incidents, ensuring timely responses, escalation, and communication to executive teams when needed.
Provide actionable guidance and security expertise to other technology teams, helping them understand and implement security best practices in their daily operations.
Provide a practical view of security issues and resolution. In a world where issues can be “anywhere,” focus on those areas most important to our secure operation.
Oversee audit and compliance activities, ensuring that security policies and controls are adhered to and can withstand external audits and internal reviews.
Develop and deliver timely reports on the security posture to the executive team, CIO, and stakeholders, ensuring transparency and actionable insights without overburdening the organization with bureaucratic oversight.
Communicate with executive leadership and stakeholders (including the board) on security incidents, status updates, and strategic improvements, while maintaining a strong focus on execution over long‑winded discussions.
Maintain strong written and verbal communication skills, capable of speaking with technicians in one moment and updating business executives in another.
Balance high‑level board interaction with operational rigor, ensuring alignment between security initiatives and business priorities while maintaining a bias for hands‑on execution.
Stay informed of the latest cybersecurity threats, vulnerabilities, and technologies, ensuring that the organization stays ahead of evolving risks.
Continuously improve security policies, procedures, and tools to strengthen the organization’s overall security posture.

Experience with incident response, threat hunting, and vulnerability management in fast‑paced environments.
Strong understanding of security in cloud environments (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) and enterprise networks.
Strong leadership presence with a bias for action and the ability to operate in high‑stress situations.
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to translate technical concepts into actionable business insights.
