The Director of Information Security is a senior leadership position with full programmatic authority over the organization's security posture. This role is accountable for building, maturing, and operating a comprehensive security program organized across five pillars: Governance, Risk and Compliance; Threat and Vulnerability Management; Identity and Access Management; Application and Cloud Security; and Resilience and Incident Response.

This role owns the organizational risk register, drives the compliance posture across ISO 27001 and SOC 2, and makes security decisions within established organizational risk appetite. The Director does not surface risks for others to own; they own the program and report outcomes to senior leadership. They lead a team of security professionals and serve as the primary security authority for engineering, operations, and executive leadership.

As AI tooling and accelerated engineering become central to the business, the Director establishes the governance frameworks and practical guardrails that allow teams to innovate without compromising data integrity or regulatory standing.
