TSCM Program Coordinator
Milestone Technologies, Inc. · San Francisco, CA · 3 wk ago
OTHRFull-time
About the role
We are hiring a TSCM Program Coordinator to take ownership of our Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM) program and mature it into a coordinated, data-driven capability that protects our people, facilities, and sensitive information across a growing global footprint. This is a hands-on, single-threaded ownership role.
Responsibilities
- Own and coordinate the global TSCM program
- Serve as the single point of coordination for TSCM across all regions, business units, and facilities.
- Manage scheduling, scoping, and quality assurance for external TSCM service provider(s) and review their deliverables for completeness and consistency.
- Develop and maintain SOPs, sweep checklists, reporting templates, and escalation procedures aligned to recognized TSCM practice.
- Maintain access-controlled records of all sweeps, findings, and remediation, with defensible chain-of-custody for items of interest.
- Operate the escalation path for suspected or confirmed findings, coordinating with Legal, Investigations, and Leadership.
- Integrate TSCM into new builds and FDOB
- Partner with Real Estate, Construction/Fit-out, IT, and Project Management to make a TSCM baseline sweep a required gate in the new-build and major-renovation lifecycle.
- Ensure a clean technical baseline is captured for each new or renovated facility before occupancy.
- Confirm baseline sweeps are completed as part of First Day of Business (FDOB) activities, with sign-off recorded before the space is used for sensitive work.
- Keep a living inventory of in-scope facilities and a master schedule ensuring every office is swept at least once every six (6) months.
- Apply risk-based tiering so higher-sensitivity locations receive greater frequency and scrutiny.
- Cook up a working analytics pipeline (Claude / LLM-assisted)
- Design and build a pipeline to ingest and normalize scan data (spectrum captures, device logs, sweep reports) into a common, queryable model.
- Compare each scan to the site baseline and to prior consecutive scans to surface new or changed signals.
- Identify and prioritize rogue/anomalous signals for analyst review, and enable historical lookback across sites and prior scans when one is found.
- Specify, deploy, and operationalize stationary continuous RF monitoring for designated critical areas.
- Configure detection and real-time alerting for newly emerging RF emissions, tuning thresholds to balance sensitivity and false positives.
- Integrate alerts into existing security workflows and produce runbooks so Company staff can sustain the platform.
- Run a covert-device validation program
- Research and procure current, representative audio/video transmitting and other test devices to use as known test articles.
- Place known test devices in Company-controlled spaces ahead of selected sweeps to measure whether providers detect and locate them.
- Score provider performance (detection rate, time-to-find, localization, reporting quality) and feed results back into provider management.
Requirements
- Experience: ~7–10 years in TSCM, technical security, signals/RF, or a closely related technical-security discipline.
- Sector background: Experience at the government level (or government-supporting environment) and/or within a large technology or enterprise organization with a mature security program.
- TSCM tradecraft: Hands-on familiarity with TSCM methodology and equipment —spectrum analyzers, non-linear junction detectors (NLJD), thermal imaging, broadband receivers, and physical/technical inspection.
- RF & signals literacy: Strong understanding of the RF spectrum, common transmission methods, and how audio/video surveillance and exfiltration devices behave.
- Program ownership: Track record running a multi-site security program, including vendor management and global scheduling.
- Data & tooling: Comfort building data pipelines and using modern analytics / LLM tooling (e.g., Claude) for analysis; scripting ability (e.g., Python).
- Discretion: Excellent judgment handling highly sensitive information on a need-to-know basis.
- Vetting: Able to pass background screening; able to hold or obtain a relevant security clearance if required.
Nice to Have
- Recognized TSCM technical training and certifications, and professional security credentials.
- Experience integrating TSCM into corporate real-estate / construction lifecycles.
- Experience deploying continuous/stationary RF or spectrum-monitoring systems.
- Familiarity with evidence handling, chain-of-custody, and working with investigations and legal.
- Working knowledge of surveillance, privacy, and radio-emission laws across multiple Jurisdictions.
- Strong written reporting and executive communication.
What Success Looks Like (First 6 Months)
- A current-state assessment and prioritized roadmap delivered, and program SOPs and templates in place.
- A TSCM baseline sweep established as a documented gate in the new-build / FDOB process.
- A complete facility inventory, risk tiering, and a master 6-month sweep schedule with adherence tracking.
- A working analytics pipeline surfacing anomalies across sites, and real-time RF monitoring piloted in at least one critical area.
- A documented covert-device validation methodology, with a first exercise completed and a provider scorecard produced.
