  • Demonstrated ability to partner with security engineers and architects on technically complex initiatives (e.g., threat modeling programs, compliance certifications, vulnerability remediation programs)

  • Strong track record of building and coaching high-performing TPM or program management teams

  • Excellent executive communication skills — comfortable presenting program risk and status to senior security and engineering leadership
