Director of Global Security Operations

In this role, you will serve as a technical subject matter expert in application security risk management, leading governance and oversight of our SAST/DAST application security scanning program, including static and dynamic application security testing. You will assess security vulnerabilities, evaluate findings from application and infrastructure scanning tools, and partner with application teams, incident management teams, and business stakeholders to prioritize and remediate risk. A key focus will be maximizing the value of the SAST/DAST platform, strengthening vulnerability management practices, improving risk visibility, and translating technical findings into actionable business risk insights. Successful candidates will bring strong expertise in application security testing, vulnerability management, and risk assessment, with hands-on experience using SAST/DAST platforms, a proven ability to drive remediation efforts, and a CISSP, CISM, CISA, CRISC, or comparable security certification.

Additionally, this role serves to support a high-visibility Data Governance initiative where you will help shape how enterprise data is governed, protected, and leveraged across the organization. You will partner with business leaders, data owners, security, privacy, compliance, and technology teams to establish governance standards, assess risk, monitor compliance, and strengthen data stewardship practices. This role provides the opportunity to influence enterprise-wide decisions and advance a mature Data Governance program. Successful candidates will be skilled relationship builders who can translate complex governance and regulatory requirements into practical business processes, drive accountability for data quality and policy adherence, and effectively balance regulatory expectations with business objectives.

Experience supporting SOC 2 audits, NIST frameworks and SSP development, third-party risk management, governance activities, and communicating complex security risks to both technical and non-technical audiences is highly valued. Strong collaboration, relationship-building, and influencing skills are essential, as this role will work across multiple teams to strengthen the organization's security posture.
