• Own the SDLC, change management, and cloud configuration controls in PCI DSS, SOC 2, and ISO 27001 audits, with the GRC team
• Manage the annual external penetration test and the relationships with Security Engineering tool vendors
• Decide how the team splits its time between projects, design reviews, and findings
• Propose headcount, tool, and vendor spend for the team in the annual budget

• Experience with a secure SDLC program: threat models, code and dependency scans, and security checks in CI/CD pipelines
• Ability to influence without authority and to communicate clearly to engineers, executives, and auditors
• Experience with PCI DSS, SOC 2, or ISO 27001 audits
• Fluency in at least one programming language, with the ability to review code and build security automation
