• Documented track record implementing a measurable secure SDLC across engineering teams exceeding 100 developers.

• End-to-end operational experience running enterprise SaaS vulnerability management and public or private bug bounty programs.

Preferred Qualifications

• Practical experience establishing security governance for LLM applications and agentic workflows (e.g., OWASP Top 10 for LLMs, prompt injection mitigation).

• Track record of building or embedding AI-assisted automation into security triage or developer review cycles.

• Prior leadership experience inside high-growth B2B SaaS or cybersecurity vendors subject to rigorous customer security scrutiny.

• Public industry contributions, including conference presentations, published CVEs, or security research advisories.
