To address these strategic objectives, the role focuses on three core areas: global cyber security strategy and governance, cyber defense and incident response operations, and executive stakeholder advisory. These areas directly support TI's operational continuity, regulatory alignment, and risk mitigation during and after its transition to stand-alone operations.

• Represent TI towards customers, regulators, authorities and industry bodies, ensuring compliance with ISO 27001, IEC 62443 and relevant statutory regulations
• Own and lead key cyber defense capabilities, including the Security Operations Center (SOC), CERT, threat intelligence, digital forensics and incident response platforms
• Direct the response to major security incidents and coordinate ecosystem incident management and supply-chain resilience
• Drive vulnerability management and proactive threat mitigation across both IT and OT infrastructures
• Lead, build, and develop a global, diverse and multidisciplinary Cybersecurity organization for TI's stand-alone operations
• Foster a culture of accountability, collaboration and continuous improvement across the global security communities and business units
• Manage the cybersecurity budget, resource allocation and succession pipeline to ensure long-term organizational capability

What You Bring
