About the Role

• Strategic Identity Roadmap: Own the strategy for Authentication and Authorization. Beyond standard SSO, you will explore best-in-class solutions (e.g., Passkeys, passwordless) to reduce friction while maintaining a hardened security posture across Web, Mobile, and OEM channels.


• Digital Order Management (DOMS): Lead the system of record for all digital transactions. Architect the logic that ingests and reconciles orders from disparate sources (Web checkout, App Store IAP, and OEM partner keys), ensuring a single, accurate \"Source of Truth.\"

• Be the connective tissue across eCommerce Product, Engineering, Legal, InfoSec, Analytics, and Finance - ensuring platform capabilities are shaped by business needs and that platform constraints are communicated early and clearly


• Make hard prioritization calls: balancing new innovations and features, technical debt, and customer experience improvements


• Own the metrics that matter from authentication to subscription management, account updates, and behavioral data that ties directly to our topline business KPIs around retention and ARPU.


• Represent your domain in regular leadership forums including annual and quarterly planning, executive deep dives, and bringing forth recommendations grounded in data and customer insight
