You’ll work with stakeholders to plan requirements, identify risks, manage project schedules, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners across the company.

Responsibilities

• Partner with Administrative Access and Security Engineering teams to plan, build, and deploy robust access platforms and challenge infrastructures across all client surfaces.
• Partner with cross-functional engineering teams to define, secure, and validate agentic access. Ensure all Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs) to and from automated agents are securely validated, routed, and logged, meeting key commitments.
• Manage the rollout of standardized zero trust security policies, justification mechanisms, and workforce or data access controls across critical corporate storage and database instances.
• Track and manage core program roadmaps, map platform dependencies, drive exception burndowns, and convert technical designs for logging, resources, and justification systems into clear execution plans.
• Establish program phasing and publish critical performance metrics to drive cross-functional consensus, strategic decision-making, and continuous improvement, with a strong focus on resource stewardship.

Preferred qualifications

• Experience leading highly technical programs or operating in technical infrastructure fields (e.g., network engineering, firewall analysis, security engineering, or data center systems engineering).
• Deep domain knowledge of dynamic privileged access frameworks, zero trust architectures, and administrative justification/authorization systems.
• Ability to act diplomatically yet assertively, comfortable challenging engineering designs, saying no to developers, and driving consensus among executive technical contributors.
• Strong behavioral and communication skills to navigate complex design debates, present to a variety of stakeholders, connect technical and business outcomes, and resolve team friction constructively.
