build automation that makes the secure path the easy path * Collaborate with HRIS and IAM teams to manage clean onboarding and offboarding across platforms and entities Email & Domain Security * Own email security infrastructure across brands, filtering, quarantine, impersonation defenses, and DMARC/SPF/DKIM hygiene, and raise the bar as new entities and threats arrive * Manage a large, multi-registrar, multi-brand domain portfolio (Cloudflare, MarkMonitor, and others); lead DNS migrations, audits, and consolidation as brands come in * Respond to phishing campaigns, insider threat signals, and anomalous domain activity with speed and precision Compliance & Legal Support * Lead legal hold management, eDiscovery queries, and data productions across email, Slack, and Google Drive, across multiple entities * Architect and maintain compliant archiving infrastructure (Global Relay, Smarsh, Virtru) as new businesses are onboarded and legacy ones sunset * Produce and defend evidence for regulatory and audit obligations (17a-4, ISO, external auditors), working directly with Legal and Compliance Security & Access Control * Design and maintain DLP rules, group access controls, and data access policies across collaboration platforms and entities * Lead insider threat reduction initiatives, access revocation, high-risk extension management, public channel governance, during and after integrations, when risk is highest * Own platform-level incident response: investigation, containment, and post-incident improvement Tooling & Vendor Management * Evaluate, onboard, consolidate, and sunset SaaS tools across the collaboration and security stack as the portfolio grows * Lead vendor relationships, procurement, and renewals;
