We're seeking a Director of Product Security who brings deep expertise in software security-including application security, cloud security, secure coding practices, and security architecture-across Software as a Service (SaaS) and on-premise environments. This role requires a unique combination of hands-on technical knowledge and strategic business acumen to influence security outcomes across the organization.

  • Partner with product and engineering teams to drive security initiatives and continuously improve our risk posture
  • Manage stakeholder expectations and cybersecurity risk for assigned Business Units
  • Plan, prioritize, optimize, and execute the security backlog through a unified work stream with product and engineering
  • Leverage technical depth and business risk understanding to drive measurable security outcomes
  • Translate complex security concepts into clear, business-friendly language for diverse audiences
  • Influence decision-making across teams and at all levels without direct authority
  • Thrive in ambiguity and drive results with a "get it done" mindset balanced with diplomacy

  • Bachelor's degree in Information Security, Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field (or equivalent experience)
  • 10-15 years of experience in information security, including 5-10 years in a leadership role focused on technical security across cloud, infrastructure, applications, and third-party integrations
  • Deep understanding of security principles across technology layers: cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), infrastructure security (network, endpoint, IAM), application security (SAST, DAST, secure coding), and third-party risk management
  • Hands-on familiarity with security tools such as SIEM platforms (Splunk, QRadar), vulnerability scanners (Qualys, Nessus), or IAM solutions (Okta, SailPoint)
  • Proven ability to drive strategic and technical cybersecurity conversations tailored to different personas (engineering executives, architects, engineering managers, etc.)
  • Track record of working independently, taking ownership of security initiatives, and delivering results with minimal supervision
  • Strong executive presence with the ability to articulate technical security concepts in business and risk terms
  • Demonstrated ability to prioritize initiatives using risk data from multiple sources while maintaining alignment with organizational objectives
  • Strong understanding of security and compliance frameworks (SOX, NIST CSF, ISO 27001/2, CIS Controls)
  • Ability to excel in a dynamic, fast-paced environment while staying ahead of emerging threats and adapting to evolving business needs
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills with proven ability to influence cross-functional teams
Preferred Qualifications

  • Prior experience as a Business Information Security Officer (BISO) or equivalent
  • Ability to build strong working relationships with customer teams and internal security teams, including international colleagues
