Program Ownership & Backlog Management
- Lead strategic, high-ambiguity Security programs from inception through execution, turning 0-to-1 initiatives into structured, measurable outcomes.
- Own executive-facing operating mechanisms for the Security org, including planning, execution reviews, SteerCos, strategy summits, design and product reviews, QBRs, and leadership decision forums.
- Build and scale execution rituals across Security teams, partnering with Engineering, Product, and TPM to strengthen accountability, visibility, and operational discipline.
- Drive portfolio-level strategy, sequencing, and dependency management across critical Security initiatives, ensuring clear prioritization, resource alignment, and timely escalation of risks and tradeoffs.
- Establish strong program governance across the Security portfolio, including reporting cadence, decision-making frameworks, escalation paths, risk tracking, and executive communications.
- Coach and mentor Security TPMs, helping raise the bar for program strategy, communication, stakeholder management, and execution excellence.
Technical & Product Depth
- Build technical and product depth to understand Security architecture choices, evaluate tradeoffs, and anticipate downstream implications and risks.
- Bridge engineering execution with customer outcomes and product strategy, ensuring Security programs are aligned with both technical priorities and business impact.
- Engage deeply in architecture reviews, design discussions, and technical tradeoff conversations, helping teams pressure-test assumptions and make well-informed decisions.
- Raise the bar in program reviews by asking high-quality technical and product questions, identifying gaps, and driving teams toward crisp decisions and accountable follow-through.
- Translate complex technical topics into clear narratives for cross-functional and executive audiences.
