Partner with compliance and security stakeholders to ensure engineering controls align with regulatory requirements.

Develop audit-ready operational documentation and evidence collection processes.

Vendor Governance

Provide technical leadership and oversight for external engineering and infrastructure partners.

Review architecture designs, technical deliverables, and production readiness.

Monitor delivery quality, identify risks, and drive remediation efforts where necessary.

Organizational Growth

Serve as a founding member of the leadership team.

Help establish future engineering hiring plans, organizational structure, and technical culture.

Communicate engineering progress, risks, and strategic recommendations to executive stakeholders.
