What you'll do

The Technical Security Governance Manager plays an important role in helping evolve our governance model from policy-driven to technically prescriptive. This role blends governance knowledge with technical acumen to ensure that security policies and controls are implementable, measurable, and effective. You will contribute to defining security controls, translating policies into actionable engineering requirements, and supporting the integration of governance into systems and processes. Working closely with engineering, compliance, and risk management teams, you will help improve control adoption, strengthen security posture, and reduce friction between governance intent and technical execution.

This position is an individual contributor role reporting to the Director of Security Governance.

Responsibility

  • Support the development, maintenance, and refinement of enterprise-wide security policies, standards, and control objectives
  • Contribute to aligning policies with frameworks (e.g., ISO, SOC 2, NIST, PCI, FedRAMP) and regulatory requirements
  • Assist in keeping security policies and standards current, practical, and risk-aligned
  • Define and document controls with both policy and technical input, ensuring they are implementable and measurable
  • Partner with engineering to help embed controls into systems, CI/CD pipelines, and operational processes
  • Support policy education and adoption programs to drive awareness and compliance across the organization
  • Help design processes that integrate policy-driven controls into engineering ways of working
  • Collaborate with compliance and risk teams to track and monitor control effectiveness
  • Utilize technical tooling (e.g., GRC systems, automation dashboards) to provide visibility into control implementation
  • Participate in technical assurance efforts to identify implementation gaps before they become audit findings
