About the Role
We are seeking an experienced Technical Program Manager (TPM) to join our Enterprise Information Security organization and lead complex, cross-functional security and InfoSec programs.
The ideal candidate brings strong experience working within Enterprise Security / Information Security organizations and understands the unique challenges of delivering security programs across a large technology environment.
