• Identify and recommend necessary changes to the operational security teams to ensure automation and orchestration, maximize team talent and reduce routine tasks.
• Ensure operational security automations meet business and technical requirements, are maintainable, scalable and meet performance standards
• Bring external perspective and ideas from relevant sources, keep current with technology and industry best practices of the security industry threat landscape
• Communicate technical and functional requirements using an effective, efficient, and creative approach with a high degree of collaboration and influence.
• Work with in-house teams to identify the right mix of tools, techniques, and procedures to translate our needs and future goals into a plan that will enable secure and effective solutions.
