• Ensure systems, network capacity, and tooling can absorb 20%+ YoY growth in headcount and revenue

Acquisition Integration

• Lead technology due diligence and integration for acquired companies, including systems migration, data conversion, user onboarding, and retirement of legacy tools
• Build and continuously improve a repeatable integration playbook that shortens time to value and protects continuity of client delivery and data integrity

Security, Data & Risk

• Own the cybersecurity program, including access management, endpoint protection, backup and disaster recovery, and incident response
• Establish data governance standards and maintain compliance with applicable security, privacy, and contractual requirements

Team Leadership & Vendor Management

• Build, lead, and develop the technology function over time
