Senior Technical Program Manager, Product Security
About The Position
We are seeking a Technical Program Manager with expertise in Application Security, specifically in identifying vulnerabilities and then scoping and implementing novel solutions to eliminate those weaknesses at scale. We don't just identify and fix security vulnerabilities - we go beyond by creating paved roads and secure frameworks to avoid security vulnerabilities in the first place. You will be expected to operate using in-depth subject-matter knowledge at a technical level with developers and engineers across large organizations. Your security and development experience will be relied upon to provide secure foundations to the application and infrastructure teams that underpin the CZI Enterprise. The role will help shape the product and application security that protects scientific and educational innovation at the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, Biohub and Learning Commons. You’ll work alongside a dynamic team of engineers, Product Managers, and Security Professionals, building shared tools and platforms that support a diverse group of Research Scientists, Data Scientists, AI Researchers, and Engineers tackling some of the world’s most complex problems. As part of the Information Security team, your work will directly impact all of CZI’s initiatives by ensuring the security and scalability of the technology solutions that drive our mission forward.
