        •        DevSecOps and Automation Leadership: 

        •       Champion the integration of security into DevOps practices, promoting a DevSecOps culture. 

        •       Lead the automation of security processes and controls using advanced tools and methodologies. 

        •        Stakeholder Engagement and Communication: 

        •       Collaborate with executive leadership to communicate security strategies and risks. 

        •       Work with cross-functional teams to ensure security requirements are understood and implemented.

        •        Continuous Innovation and Improvement: 

        •       Stay abreast of emerging security technologies, threats, and industry trends. 

        •       Drive innovation by evaluating and implementing new security tools and solutions. 

  • Be relentless about continual risk reduction through iterative improvement across all facets of hybrid cloud security.
