  • Deep understanding of cloud security, DevSecOps, enterprise compliance frameworks (SOC 2 or similar), secure software development, and engineering governance.

Desired Skills & Experience

  • Experience driving AI adoption within engineering organizations, including Agentic AI, large language models (LLMs), intelligent automation, AI governance, and identifying practical opportunities to improve engineering efficiency and customer outcomes.
  • A collaborative leadership style with experience mentoring engineering managers and senior technical leaders while building high-performing, engaged engineering teams that embrace innovation and continuous learning.
  • Strong customer-facing and solution architecture experience, with the ability to partner with executive stakeholders, translate business goals into technology strategy, and lead complex cloud transformation initiatives across diverse customer environments.
