• Proven capability in technical leadership in a global organization, developing technology strategy and driving technology programs.
• Proven capability to lead and mentor engineers in a distributed, asynchronous, follow-the-sun model.

NICE TO HAVES

• Hands-on experience with modern AI orchestration frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph).
• Hands-on experience writing Rego policies (Open Policy Agent) or Regula test cases.
• Hands-on experience with Terraform.
• Familiarity with cloud-native security services in Amazon Web Services, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform.
• Familiarity with PagerDuty, Atlassian Suite, and ServiceNow.
