Come join us and help shape a safer, simpler digital future.

As Senior Director, Global Total Rewards, you’ll lead the strategy and delivery of compensation, equity, benefits, and related programs across a global technology organization. You’ll guide an approximately eight‑person team, partner with senior leaders and cross‑functional stakeholders, and help build scalable, equitable programs that support the company’s mission to make it safe for everyone to access the information they need.

How we’re using AI todayOn the People team, we’re using AI intentionally and responsibly as part of how our work gets done. We’re building a shared foundation of AI confidence and capability with the belief that innovation happens best when we learn and experiment together. From drafting communications and synthesizing feedback to automating workflows across the employee lifecycle, we’re embedding AI into our day‑to‑day operations and the way we collaborate cross‑functionally, helping us move quickly and create space for the human moments that matter most.

This is a remote opportunity within Canada and the US.

What we're looking for:

• Extensive senior‑level experience leading global Total Rewards programs, including compensation, equity, benefits, retirement, and executive compensation.

• Experience guiding Total Rewards strategy and operations through significant organizational growth, evolving governance requirements, or preparation for an initial public offering (IPO) and public‑company operations.

• Strong experience advising executives, Compensation Committees, and Boards, with the ability to translate complex analysis into clear recommendations and decisions.

• Deep knowledge of equity strategy and governance, including equity ranges, grant programs, refresh programs, share‑pool planning, dilution forecasting, and compensation governance.

• Experience building or evolving job architecture, career levels, pay bands, geographic frameworks, and pay equity practices across multiple markets.

• Experience leading or sponsoring large‑scale human resources information systems (HRIS), payroll, compensation technology, or enterprise program implementations, including data migration, integrations, testing, controls, and adoption.

• Experience using artificial intelligence (AI), automation, analytics, or scenario modeling to improve Total Rewards insights, scalability, controls, and employee experience.

What you can expect:

• Lead a global Total Rewards strategy that supports business priorities and attracts, rewards, and retains talent across technology, cybersecurity, and other critical areas.

• Lead, coach, and develop a global team while fostering clear communication, effective collaboration, accountability, and thoughtful change management.

• Strengthen governance, controls, documentation, data integrity, and operating practices to support scalable and compliant Total Rewards programs.

• Define the future Total Rewards technology and data ecosystem, including optimization of platforms such as Pave and responsible use of AI, automation, analytics, and self‑service capabilities.

• Partner with executive leadership, Finance, Legal, and external advisors on executive compensation strategy, market analysis, incentive design, and Compensation Committee materials.

• Oversee equity strategy, global compensation programs, job architecture, career levels, geographic differentials, pay structures, and pay equity initiatives.

• Set the strategic direction for global benefits, retirement, leave, accommodations, and wellbeing programs while supporting international expansion, acquisitions, audits, regulatory requirements, and operational improvements.

How we work with AIWe are committed to leveraging cutting‑edge technology—including AI—to achieve our mission. We also understand that thinking critically about AI in its current forms will help us create better solutions for our customers and ourselves with its future forms, which will help us continue to close the gap between security and privacy and achieve our mission. We want team members at all levels to take the approach of actively learning AI best practices, identifying opportunities to apply AI in meaningful ways, and driving innovative solutions in their daily work. Embracing the future of AI isn't just encouraged—it's an essential part of how we will be successful at the company.

This approach extends to our hiring process—candidates are welcome to use AI tools responsibly and thoughtfully during the application process. To us, this means we do ask that you join live interviews without using AI tools so we can get to know how you communicate, solve problems, and collaborate with others.
