## About the role

The Detection & Response (D&R) team plays a critical role in protecting our systems, users, and data from security threats. We’re looking for an experienced Technical Program Manager to own and evolve incident management within D&R. This is a senior-level specialization on the Technical Program Manager ladder, focused on how we detect, respond to, and learn from security and operational incidents. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Own the end-to-end D&R incident management program: detection workflows, response processes, escalation paths, communication standards, and remediation tracking
- Serve as incident commander for security incidents, driving clear coordination across executive, engineering, security, legal, and other appropriate stakeholders
- Establish and run incident commander rotations within D&R, ensuring clear ownership and effective coordination during incidents of varying severity
- Drive post-incident accountability by defining how action items are captured, assigned, tracked, and completed across teams—ensuring follow-through on both tactical fixes and strategic improvements
- Gather, analyze, and report on incident trends and patterns to surface systemic risks, recurring root causes, and areas where the organization is most vulnerable
- Lead incident review forums (post-mortems, retrospectives) and ensure learnings are captured, socialized, and acted upon across the organization
