• Establish strong program governance across the Security portfolio, including reporting cadence, decision-making frameworks, escalation paths, risk tracking, and executive communications.
• Coach and mentor Security TPMs, helping raise the bar for program strategy, communication, stakeholder management, and execution excellence.

Technical & Product Depth

• Bridge engineering execution with customer outcomes and product strategy, ensuring Security programs are aligned with both technical priorities and business impact.
• Engage deeply in architecture reviews, design discussions, and technical tradeoff conversations, helping teams pressure-test assumptions and make well-informed decisions.
• Raise the bar in program reviews by asking high-quality technical and product questions, identifying gaps, and driving teams toward crisp decisions and accountable follow-through.
• Translate complex technical topics into clear narratives for cross-functional and executive audiences.
