[Remote] Senior Technical Program Manager, Security

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. SailPoint is a leader in identity security for the cloud enterprise, and they are seeking a Senior Technical Program Manager to oversee a product security program with multiple concurrent initiatives. The role involves driving execution of security initiatives, managing cross-team dependencies, and ensuring operational efficiency across the engineering organization.

Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end execution of 12+ concurrent product security initiatives across near-term, mid-term, and continuous horizons, keeping each with a current status, next milestone, owner, timeline, and documented dependencies
• Maintain the initiative roadmap as a living document, run the weekly tracking cadence, flag drifting work, and escalate blockers before they become delays
• Map and actively manage cross-team dependencies across DevOps, Platform Engineering, FinOps, Architecture, Product, Engineering Directors, and the CISO organization
• Build trusted relationships with engineering leaders whose teams support active initiatives, making cross-team coordination frictionless rather than adding process
• Manage the full vendor and procurement pipeline, giving every engagement a clear status, next action, owner, and timeline, and eliminating procurement surprises
• Drive vendor engagements through the front door process, coordinating evaluators, scoping POCs, compiling results, and preparing decision packages for leadership
• Track recurring BAU work — design and architecture reviews, AI security reviews, red team operations, security champions, and metrics — against capacity so the Director can see where the team has room for additional work
• Produce executive-ready status updates, quarterly program reviews, and decision packages that leadership uses to evaluate program health and make investment decisions
• Steer the program with data such as aging, throughput, and SLA adherence, sizing risk in concrete terms for both technical and executive audiences
• Build and maintain program tracking in Jira and Confluence, establish a consistent intake process for new initiatives, and apply AI-assisted workflows with sound judgment about when automation helps and when human oversight is required

Skills

• 7+ years of technical program management experience, with at least 3 years managing security, infrastructure, or platform engineering programs
• Demonstrated experience managing 10+ concurrent initiatives with cross-functional dependencies across engineering organizations
• Experience managing vendor procurement processes for security or engineering tooling, including evaluations, POCs, and contract execution
• Familiarity with security program domains: application security, cloud security, DevSecOps, vulnerability management, and identity/access management. You do not need to be a practitioner, but you need to understand the landscape
• Proficiency with program management tooling (Jira, Confluence, spreadsheet-based trackers) and the ability to build and maintain program tracking without dedicated PMO infrastructure
• Strong written communication. You will produce the executive status updates, quarterly reviews, and decision packages that leadership uses to evaluate program health and make investment decisions
• Bachelor's degree in a relevant field or equivalent experience
• Experience building or maturing a security, infrastructure, or platform program operating model — intake, quarterly planning, weekly execution rhythm, BAU transition, and portfolio capacity planning across concurrent initiatives
• Prior ownership of DevSecOps, CI/CD security, or SCM/toolchain programs (e.g., pipeline security gates, developer tooling migration, cloud asset governance)
• Identity and access security program coordination, including production access controls, non-human identity, or similar IAM-adjacent initiatives
• Experience coordinating security review and operations programs — design/architecture reviews, AI security reviews, red team vendor engagement, and security champions
• Track record delivering executive quarterly program reviews, procurement decision packages, and semi-automated metrics reporting (aging, throughput, SLA adherence) for security or engineering programs
• SaaS or enterprise product security experience in audit- or compliance-sensitive environments, with demonstrated ability to influence engineering leadership and resolve cross-org dependencies without direct authority
• Hands-on experience using AI-assisted and agent-orchestrated workflows to accelerate planning, tracking, and communication across complex, multi-team programs, with sound judgment about when automation helps and when human oversight is required
• Proven ability to design and maintain program tracking in Jira and Confluence that drives accountability and executive-ready visibility
