Contribute to the development and maintenance of the organization's IT and security roadmap aligned with mission priorities and partner obligations.
Maintain the technology risk register, develop, document, and maintain IT and security policies, standards, and procedures.
Partner with Engineering and program teams to implement secure, scalable system design practices.
