THE ADVENTURE AHEAD

As our Vice President, Information Security, you will step up as the de facto security leader owning Docebo’s global security strategy across product, cloud, GRC, and AI.

You will drive hard, measurable risk reduction while pioneering AI-first security practices that empower our business to move fast with complete confidence.

THE DAY-TO-DAY

• Architect Global Strategy: Own and evolve Docebo’s enterprise security roadmap across product security, cloud hardening, GRC, privacy, and incident response to achieve measurable control maturity.
• Embed Security by Design: Partner deeply with Product and Engineering to integrate threat modeling, secure SDLC, CI/CD security, identity controls, and vulnerability remediation into core engineering workflows.
• Pioneer AI-First Security: Build robust governance and controls for AI products and internal tooling while harnessing AI to automate detection, vulnerability management, and threat response.
• Champion Customer Trust: Lead compliance programs (SOC 2, ISO 27001) backed by real controls, and represent Docebo with executive credibility in board updates, audits, and enterprise customer due diligence.
• Elevate Defense Operations: Strengthen security telemetry, threat intelligence, and detection across cloud and corporate environments to protect against emerging modern attack patterns.
• Empower High-Impact Teams: Lead and coach a talented security team, building a high-accountability culture focused on clear outcomes, rapid execution, and continuous learning.

YOUR SUPERPOWERS

• Proven Executive Leadership: Significant experience leading information security programs in a software, SaaS, or tech product environment with a track record of executive and board collaboration.
• Deep Technical Foundations: Hands‑on mastery of application security, cloud security (AWS), infrastructure, identity systems, secure SDLC, and modern vulnerability management.
• Mandatory Certification: Active CISSP credential backed by a deep understanding of SOC 2, ISO 27001, privacy regulations, and enterprise SaaS security standards.
• Collaborative Business Driver: Exceptional ability to forge trusted partnerships across Product, Engineering, Legal, and Sales, acting as an enabler who balances security with business velocity.
• Outcome‑Focused Execution: A clear track record of using metrics and business risk language to make decisive, risk‑informed choices in complex, ambiguous environments.

BONUS POINTS

• AI Security Expertise: Hands‑on experience securing AI‑enabled products and LLMs, or utilizing AI tools to scale security operations and automated testing.
• Advanced Technical Certifications: Additional credentials such as CISM, CISA, CCSP, AWS Security Specialty, or GIAC, combined with offensive security or red teaming experience.
