We are seeking a Technical Manager to lead a team responsible for product vulnerability management, software assurance, secure manufacturing processes, and cloud-based security applications. This role will oversee the identification, assessment, remediation, and reporting of software vulnerabilities across embedded and network products. The manager will also lead the development of a secure cloud application and supporting APIs for exchanging device information with customers.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Lead, mentor, and develop a team responsible for software security, vulnerability management, and cloud security applications.
  • Establish processes for identifying, analyzing, prioritizing, remediating, and tracking software vulnerabilities.
  • Manage Black Duck and related Software Composition Analysis tools, including project configuration, scanning, policy review, reporting, and issue resolution.
  • Oversee the creation, validation, and distribution of SBOM and VEX reports.
  • Define vulnerability triage criteria using severity, exploitability, product exposure, reachability, and customer impact.
  • Lead the use of AI-assisted code scanning and security analysis while ensuring findings are validated by qualified engineers.
  • Develop secure software-signing processes, including key management, signing workflows, access control, auditability, and protection against unauthorized signing.
  • Secure and review software manufacturing procedures, including build integrity, artifact provenance, release controls, and production access.
  • Manage the development of a secure cloud application for exchanging device and product-security information with customers.
  • Establish mechanisms for securely ingesting and sharing device information, including device identity, software versions, SBOMs, vulnerabilities, VEX status, attestation results, and security events.
  • Coordinate vulnerability remediation with development and release teams.
  • Promote secure software development practices, threat modeling, code review, and security testing.

What We’re Looking For

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Cybersecurity, or a related field.
  • Experience:
    • Experience leading software security, product security, vulnerability management, application security, or cloud security teams.
    • Strong understanding of vulnerability management, CVE analysis, CVSS, CWE, SBOM, VEX, and software supply-chain security.
    • Experience with Black Duck, SCA tools, code scanning, or comparable security platforms.
    • Experience defining and operating software-signing and release-security processes.
    • Experience leading the development of cloud applications, secure APIs, or customer-facing security platforms.
    • Knowledge of cloud security principles, identity and access management, encryption, API security, audit logging, and secure data exchange.
    • Experience working with embedded Linux, networking software, or complex hardware/software products.
    • Strong communication, project management, and cross-functional leadership skills.
    • Ability to translate complex security findings into clear engineering and business decisions.

Asset/Nice to Have

  • Experience with GCP, Cloud Run, API gateways, cloud databases, cloud KMS, or cloud-based certificate authorities.
  • Experience with REST, gRPC, OAuth 2.0, OIDC, mTLS, PKI, and multi-tenant application design.
  • Experience with SONiC, Linux, containers, firmware, networking, or telecommunications products.
  • Familiarity with SPDX, CycloneDX, CSAF, VEX, SLSA, and SBOM conformance.
  • Experience with CodeQL, Coverity, Blackduck, or similar tools.
  • Knowledge of cryptographic key management, HSMs, cloud KMS, PKI, and trusted build environments.
  • Experience securing manufacturing, provisioning, or product-release operations.

Success in This Role

Success means establishing a predictable vulnerability-remediation process, improving the quality and timeliness of SBOM and VEX reports, protecting software-signing operations, reducing software supply-chain risk, and delivering a secure cloud platform that enables customers to exchange and review trusted device and product-security information.

Perks You’ll Love

  • Flexible time off
  • Health and wellness benefits (physical and mental)
  • Tuition reimbursement and career growth support
  • A workplace built for you: free gym, games room, prayer room
  • Subsidized meals, free coffee/tea
  • Employee stock options and incentive plans
