Vice President - Product and Platform Security

We need to output HTML fragment with sections only if content present. Use

for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to parse posting. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Full Time / Part Time Full time Regular / Temporary Regular Job Exempt (Yes / No) Yes Job Category Work Shift First (United States of America)" etc. Also remove EEO statements, privacy notice, etc. We need to preserve substantive info: company, location constraints, description of FRFS, role description, responsibilities list, background requirements, benefits, pay range, maybe schedule? Not given schedule explicitly; only full time. Should we include Schedule? The posting says "Full Time". That's schedule info. Should we include a Schedule section? The rule: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. It says "Full Time". That's specific. So we can include Schedule section with maybe

Full time

. But we need to decide if we want to include Schedule heading. The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can include Schedule if we have content. We have "Full Time". So we can include Schedule section with

Full time

. However we also have "Full Time / Part Time Full time Regular / Temporary Regular Job Exempt (Yes / No) Yes Job Category Work Shift First (United States of America)" which is messy. We'll extract just "Full time". Also maybe "Regular". But we can keep simple. Pay: we have salary range $308,700 to $365,100 annually plus annual performance-based discretionary bonuses. So we include Pay section. Benefits: we have "Comprehensive benefits package includes medical, dental, vision, prescription drug coverage, 401k savings plan, retirement plan, paid time off, transit benefit, onsite gym and subsidized cafeteria A learning environment with opportunities to gain new skills and grow your career". Also maybe mention "Learn more about our benefits here: https://..." but that's a link; we can keep as part of benefits? It's a URL; we could include as but not required. Probably keep as part of benefits description. About the role: we have description of FRFS, role purpose. We'll put that in About the role section. Responsibilities: list bullet points from "Your Responsibilities". We'll extract each line. Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: The posting has "Your Background" which includes education, experience, technical knowledge, abilities. We need to split into Requirements, Qualifications, Skills? The instruction says use those headings if content exists. We can decide to put education/experience under Requirements, certifications under Qualifications, technical abilities under Skills. But we must not invent sections if content is vague. Better to combine into Requirements and Qualifications maybe. However we have distinct bullets: Bachelor's degree required; Master's and certifications preferred. 10+ years experience etc. Deep technical understanding... Strong knowledge... Technical acumen... Ability to translate... Ability to manage... Willingness to travel... Ability to obtain clearance. We could treat "Your Background" as Requirements (education/experience) and then Skills (technical abilities). But we also have "Ability to..." which are more like skills/competencies. Let's create: - Requirements: education, years of experience, leadership experience. - Qualifications: preferred Master's and certifications. - Skills: technical understanding, knowledge, acumen, abilities, communication, etc. But we must avoid thin sections. We'll see if each has enough content. Requirements: Bachelor's degree required; 10+ years progressive experience in info sec with at least 5 years in application/product security or secure development; 5+ years leading security teams in large complex organizations (preferably financial services, government, or highly regulated industries). That's decent. Qualifications: Master's degree and professional security certifications (CISSP, CSSLP, CEH, GIAC) preferred, or equivalent experience. That's short but still specific. Skills: Deep technical understanding of application security principles, secure design patterns, NIST frameworks and standards, SSDLC practices, DevSecOps methodologies, threat modeling, security testing approaches (SAST, DAST, IAST, SCA, penetration testing), and common vulnerability classes; Strong knowledge of modern application architectures (microservices, APIs, containers, cloud-native), cloud security (AWS, Azure, GCP), security frameworks and standards, and cryptography/authentication protocols; Technical acumen to evaluate complex security architectures while maintaining strategic perspective on business objectives and risk management; Ability to translate business objectives into security strategies, influence change without direct authority, and navigate complex organizational dynamics; Exceptional communication and presentation skills with ability to explain complex technical security concepts to diverse audiences from developers to executive leadership, facilitating discussions that balance security requirements with business needs and user experience; Ability to manage competing priorities, adapt to ambiguity and changing requirements, and drive initiatives to completion while balancing security rigor with practical implementation; Willingness to travel occasionally (10-15%); commitment to staying current with evolving threats, technologies, and security practice; Ability to obtain and maintain national security clearance; must be able to complete a favorably adjudicated enhanced background screening. That's a lot, good for Skills. Now Benefits: we have description. Pay: salary range plus bonuses. Schedule: Full time. Now About the role: we need to capture the description of FRFS and role purpose. Let's extract: "Federal Reserve Financial Services (FRFS) delivers a suite of payments services to financial institutions via FedLine® Solutions, Fedwire® Funds and Securities, the National Settlement Service (NSS), FedCash® , FedACH®, Check Services, and the FedNow® Service. FRFS operates as a fully integrated organization with groups dedicated to customer experience, operations, technology, product and customer/industry management, enterprise services, payments system improvement, and one focused on the ongoing growth and development of the FedNow instant payment service.

The VP must be an influential communicator who can operate at both strategic and technical levels, articulating security concepts to diverse audiences while maintaining sufficient technical depth to evaluate complex security architectures, threat models, and risk scenarios." We can put that as About the role. Now Responsibilities: list bullet points from "Your Responsibilities". Let's extract each sentence starting with a verb. - Develop and maintain comprehensive security architecture for all FRFS products and platforms, ensuring compliance with Federal Reserve System (FRS) security standards and effective risk mitigation - Oversee secure reference architectures, design patterns, and technical standards for FRFS products; ensure security architecture reviews for all new products, major enhancements, and technology changes - Establish and mature secure software development lifecycle (SSDLC) practices, integrating threat modeling and secure coding into Agile/DevSecOps workflows - Guide evaluation and adoption of security technologies, tools, and controls; drive DevSecOps practices, security automation, and shift-left security principles across product teams, partnering with System IT colleagues to implement Frontier AI where appropriate - Identify, assess, and communicate security risks to stakeholders in collaboration with the FRFS Cyber Strategy, Risk, Resiliency Department to facilitate risk-based decisions on security controls, risk acceptance, and compliance requirements - Lead, mentor, and develop the Product and Platform Security team, fostering a culture of excellence, collaboration, and continuous learning while ensuring appropriate resource allocation - Build and maintain strong partnerships with FRFS product management, software engineering, architecture, and operations teams, serving as a trusted security advisor; establish similar relationships with System IT partners such as Architecture of the Enterprise - Provide strategic security guidance for FRFS product roadmaps, architecture decisions, and technology investments; partner with senior leadership on strategic planning - Represent FRFS product and platform security interests in Federal Reserve System forums, committees, and working groups Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no extra text. We'll structure:

Final salary and offer will be determined based on the applicant’s home bank, relevant experience, skills, internal equity, and alignment with geographic and other market data.

  Schedule

  Full time

  We should also maybe include location info? Not a heading. Could be part of About the role? The posting includes location constraints: "For external candidates, this role will be hired only in Chicago, Kansas City, or New York. Candidates must reside within a reasonable commuting distance of one of these Reserve Bank locations." That's substantive; we should include it somewhere. Where? Could be in About the role after description, or maybe a separate section like "Location". But not in prescribed headings. We could add to About the role paragraph. Let's incorporate that. Thus About the role paragraph will include FRFS description and location constraint. Now ensure we removed boilerplate: EEO statements, privacy notice, "Always verify and apply to jobs...", "The Federal Reserve Banks are committed to equal employment opportunity..." etc. Also removed "Additional Information" about work authorization, screening, ethics rules, etc. Those are substantive? The "Additional Information" includes work authorization requirement, screening, ethics rules. Are those considered boilerplate? They are specific to the job (work authorization, screening, ethics). The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/s
