Senior Manager Network and Cloud Infrastructure

About the role

We are seeking a technically strong, security-minded Senior Manager, Network & Cloud Infrastructure to own two of the most consequential infrastructure programs in the organization — simultaneously. This leader will drive our enterprise-wide Zero Trust Network Access transformation while operationalizing Microsoft Sentinel as an active threat detection engine and driving a full on-premises to AWS migration.

Responsibilities

• Lead the Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) program from architecture through global deployment — primary sites live by end of 2026, all international sites and legacy VPN fully decommissioned by 2027
• Manage Palo Alto Panorama as the centralized firewall management platform across all on-premises and cloud NGFWs, enforcing policy consistency and eliminating configuration drift
• Lead the Palo Alto Cloud Identity Engine (CIE) integration with the IAM team — enabling Okta group membership to drive firewall enforcement rules and targeting a 5-minute threat response SLA
• Operationalize Microsoft Sentinel as an active SIEM (RIPPLECREW IR priority): enable analytic rules across all data connectors, ingest enriched O365 audit logs, deploy UEBA Essentials, and build automation playbooks to measurably reduce MTTD
• Lead the full migration from on-premises to AWS, targeting a 60% data center reduction. Implement cloud security solution to tag and monitor all workloads
• Govern the GCP controlled deployment architecture, ensuring 100% of deployments follow approved IaC patterns with zero unauthorized provisioning
• Deliver VP-level program reporting to Engineering Leadership, the CISO office, Finance, and Executive Sponsors — translating sophisticated infrastructure risk into business language
• Lead, coach, and grow a combined team of 7–10 engineers across Network Engineering and Cloud Infrastructure, managing a 3-year program investment of $4M–$7M

Requirements

• 8+ years of enterprise network and/or cloud infrastructure engineering, with at least 3 years in a people leadership or senior technical lead role
• Hands-on Palo Alto NGFW and Panorama expertise — you have deployed and managed NGFWs at scale, not just managed the team that did
• Proven ZTNA architecture and deployment experience — deep enough to own the program, resolve blockers, and guide engineers through complex site-specific challenges
• AWS expertise at Solutions Architect Professional level — VPC, EKS, migration patterns, IAM Identity Center, and cost governance
• Microsoft Sentinel hands-on: analytic rule authoring, KQL proficiency, Logic Apps playbook development — you have operationalized a Sentinel deployment, or have the depth to do it here
• Familiarity with GCP architecture and controlled deployment patterns
• Experience managing multi-million dollar infrastructure budgets with Finance-level accountability
• Demonstrated ability to run concurrent, cross-disciplinary infrastructure programs without losing momentum on either
• Track record of building and developing high-performing technical teams

Qualifications

• Nice to Have: Palo Alto Cloud Identity Engine (CIE) integration experience — identity-to-network enforcement is a Year 2 program anchor
• Prior incident response involvement in a network or cloud security context
• Experience in a multi-studio, multi-BU entertainment or gaming enterprise environment
• Active certifications: PCNSE, AWS Solutions Architect Professional, Microsoft SC-200, or FinOps Certified Professional

Benefits

• Medical, Dental & Vision Insurance
• Paid Vacation Time & Holidays
• Generous 401(k) match
• Paid Parental Leave
• Volunteer Program
• Employee Giving & Matching Gifts Programs
• Tuition Reimbursement
• Product Discounts
