You'll guide AI-powered policy tooling, drive threat modeling, and ensure your team delivers reliable guardrails at scale. You set direction, remove blockers, and provide architectural guidance so delivery teams can move quickly while meeting their security obligations.

Threat Modeling: Lead threat modeling for new platform capabilities, multi-cloud integrations, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) tooling. Own Threat Model Review (TMR) approvals for system changes. Maintain and extend threat models as new CSP integrations and AI components are introduced
People & Delivery: Lead, mentor, and grow a team spanning policy engineering, AI/ML tooling, and security automation. Set engineering standards by code review, testing coverage, CI/CD quality gates, and documentation norms. Build a culture where policies are treated as production software.
