JIRA Cloud Computing Cyber Security Continuous Integration DevOps Identity and Access Management Systems Development Life Cycle Software Engineering Software Vulnerability Management Cloud Platform System Software Security Functional Dependencies

Job description

Own end-to-end delivery for Application Security and Platform Security initiatives-building and maintaining the program plans, milestone schedules, and dependency maps in Jira, and driving them from intake through close

  • Run both teams’ operational cadences-sprint/backlog grooming, weekly status, and quarterly planning-and keep backlog health and ticket hygiene good enough that status is trustworthy without a fire drill
  • Partner with the team leads on effort estimation, task decomposition, and resource alignment across concurrent workstreams; surface capacity conflicts and schedule risk early, with options
  • Serve the software engineering teams as the primary customers of App Security and Platform Security-intake their requests, set expectations on what security can deliver and when, and keep that channel active rather than reactive
  • Manage cross-functional dependencies with software engineering, IT, GRC, cloud/platform, and external vendors and assessors
  • Produce leadership-ready program visibility-milestone-oriented, risk-flagged, and current-including the roll-ups and tear-sheets the PMO uses for steering
  • Partner with the PMO Lead on roadmap planning: prioritization, capacity planning, and keeping the plan of record maintained as priorities shift
  • Flex to other Security & Infrastructure programs as portfolio demand requires, bringing the same execution discipline to an unfamiliar domain

Requirements

10+ years combining application and platform security with the technical program management of that work-deep in at least one domain (secure SDLC, vulnerability management, CI/CD pipeline security; cloud and infrastructure security, identity and access management), credible in the other, with a track record of owning and running programs end to end

  • Demonstrated ability to manage concurrent workstreams with cross-functional dependencies and external stakeholders
  • Strong Jira or equivalent proficiency; able to build and maintain structured tracking across multi-team portfolios
  • Comfortable operating where scope, priorities, and assignments shift with portfolio demand
  • Clear, direct communicator; able to simplify complex status for executive audiences and push back when warranted
  • U.S. citizenship required; clearable required

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE

  • Prior experience as an information security engineer who has since moved into technical program management (preferred over a TPM background without hands-on security experience)
  • Familiarity working directly with software engineering and platform/DevOps teams
  • Familiarity with NIST RMF, FedRAMP, or federal compliance environments
  • Experience in defense technology, aerospace, or DoD contractor environments

Benefits & conditions

  • Be the offset. We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity.
  • What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results.
  • It’s the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together.
