## About the role

We're hiring a Staff Security Technical Program Manager to run the operating system of the a16z Security team. You'll own the firm's vulnerability management program, drive cross-team security initiatives to completion, and own the planning rhythm that keeps the team and its stakeholders aligned: sprints, OKRs, timelines, and the documentation and ticketing hygiene that make all of it real.

## What they're looking for

- 7+ years of technical program management experience, with at least 3 years running security programs
- A track record of owning a vulnerability management program at scale: SLAs, remediation tracking across teams you don't control, executive reporting, and measurable risk reduction
- Technical fluency to be credible with security engineers: you can read a finding, understand severity and exploitability, and push back on a risk rating with reasons
- Knows the common SaaS tools (okta, Slack,GSuite etc) of an enterprise stack well enough to talk through their security issues with the teams that own them
- Writing that is clear, brief, and structured
- Ability to build strong working relationships across functions like IT, Legal, Compliance, and engineering, and execute through those partnerships: work gets done with other teams, not around them
