What You'll Do - Drive the strategic program management of high-priority cybersecurity initiatives, providing governance and roadmap planning for critical security domains. This includes translating findings into actionable remediation priorities and using them to drive accountability and process improvements. - Own and mature the technical program strategy for SoFi's vulnerability management program-the core pillar of this role-including roadmap planning, execution governance, prioritization frameworks, and measurable success criteria that scale across the organization. - Partner closely with Threat and Vulnerability Management, Product Security, Engineering, Infrastructure, Enterprise Technology, Risk, Compliance, and business-unit stakeholders to drive vulnerability remediation outcomes. - Build scalable operating rhythms for vulnerability intake, triage, prioritization, remediation tracking, escalation, exception handling, and executive reporting. - Improve risk-based vulnerability prioritization by incorporating severity, exploitability, asset criticality, exposure, business context, and remediation feasibility. - Drive cross-functional remediation campaigns that reduce risk, improve mean time to remediate, and create clear accountability across engineering and platform teams. - Define, track, and communicate program KPIs, KRIs, and operational health metrics for leadership, committees, and program sponsors. - Establish durable governance and reporting mechanisms that make vulnerability management progress visible and actionable for technical and non-technical stakeholders. - Identify process gaps, tooling gaps, and workflow friction across vulnerability detection, routing, remediation, validation, and closure. - Influence technical decisions without direct authority by translating security risk into business impact, engineering priorities, and practical execution plans. - Proactively identify opportunities for operational improvement by analyzing recurring vulnerability patterns, identifying process friction, and driving sustainable remediation practices across teams.

What You'll Need - 8+ years of experience in technical program management, security program management, security operations, product security, application security, infrastructure security, DevSecOps, or a related technical discipline. - Demonstrated ownership of vulnerability management, product security, application security, cloud security, infrastructure security, or similar cybersecurity programs. - Experience driving large-scale, cross-functional programs across Security, Engineering, Product, Infrastructure, IT, Risk, Compliance, and senior leadership stakeholders. - Strong understanding of vulnerability management lifecycle concepts, including discovery, triage, prioritization, remediation, validation, SLA management, exception handling, and executive reporting. - Ability to translate ambiguous security objectives into structured roadmaps, milestones, owners, metrics, and operating rhythms. - Experience using data, KPIs, dashboards, and stakeholder reporting to improve program visibility, accountability, and outcomes. - Strong technical fluency with modern software, cloud, infrastructure, endpoint, container, API, and/or application security environments. - Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to simplify complex security topics for executive, technical, and non-technical audiences. - Exceptional 'soft-skills' including stakeholder influence, conflict resolution, and the ability to drive accountability without direct authority; proven ability to translate security risk into clear business impact to guide executive-level prioritization. - Comfort operating in a regulated environment where security, compliance, risk reduction, and business velocity must be balanced.

Nice to Have - Experience with vulnerability management platforms, scanners, or remediation orchestration tools - Experience building or maturing security KPIs, KRIs, dashboards, remediation SLAs, or executive risk reporting. - Experience with secure SDLC, DevSecOps, CI/CD security controls, software supply chain security, cloud security posture management, or application security programs. - Experience supporting audit, regulatory, issue management, MRA/CAP remediation, or other risk governance workflows. - Experience in financial services, fintech, banking, or another highly regulated technology environment. - Experience driving automation or AI-enabled workflows for vulnerability intake, prioritization, ticketing, remediation, or reporting.
