$159,300–$214,000 year
On-site · Seattle, Washington, United States
Job Summary
Staff Technical Program Manager (Security & Compliance) leads FedRAMP, NIST 800-53, SOC 2 programs for LVT’s cloud/IoT platform. Translates regulatory controls into engineering roadmaps and backlogs, drives end-to-end program execution, and ensures audit-readiness across Engineering, Security, DevOps, and Product. Partners with external assessors (3PAOs), government reviewers, and cross-functional teams to schedule milestones, manage risks, and automate evidence collection. Builds lightweight governance dashboards and velocity metrics, and guides architecture decisions related to cloud infrastructure, IAM, vulnerability management, CI/CD controls, and incident response to support regulated delivery.
Required Qualifications
- 8+ years of experience in Technical Program Management or a related engineering execution role.
- 4+ years of hands-on experience leading security, compliance, or infrastructure-focused technical programs—with direct ownership of at least one significant compliance initiative (FedRAMP, NIST 800-53, SOC 2) from planning through completion or authorization.
- Experience translating regulatory control frameworks into engineering roadmaps, backlogs, and actionable milestones with clear exit criteria.
- Experience managing cross-functional programs across distributed engineering teams (cloud, security, DevOps/infrastructure) without direct authority—influencing through credibility, clarity, and relationship.
- Strong familiarity with modern cloud infrastructure delivery: infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD pipelines, identity and access management, vulnerability management, SIEM/CSPM tooling, observability platforms, and incident response processes.
- Experience coordinating with external compliance assessors (3PAOs, auditors, agency liaisons) and managing evidence lifecycle and submission readiness.
- Proven track record of building lightweight but durable operational processes that improve compliance delivery velocity without adding bureaucratic drag.
- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills—ability to translate technical control status into crisp executive narratives and to write clear, unambiguous program documentation suitable for audit review.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related technical field; equivalent practical experience accepted.
