Senior Technical Program Manager, Product Security
Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, Redwood City, California, United States, 94061
The TeamAcross our work in Science, Education, and within our communities, we pair technology with grantmaking, impact investing, and collaboration to help accelerate the pace of progress toward our mission. Our Central Operations & Partners team provides the support needed to push this work forward.Central Operations & Partners consists of our Brand & Communications, Community, Facilities, Finance, Infrastructure/IT Operations/Business Systems, Initiative Operations, People, Real Estate/Workplace/Facilities/Security, Research & Learning, and Ventures teams. These teams provide the essential operations, services, and strategies needed to support CZI’s progress toward achieving its mission to build a better future for everyone.
Our Central Tech team provides technology and security support for CZI and our grantees. Engineering, IT, and Security are most effective when in sync and learning from each other daily.

Understand technology requirements, roadmap, dependencies, evolution, and develop a plan for mitigating risks and delivering features that meet the requirements across multiple products.Stay current with the latest Security research (AI/ML, Cloud, Container, Infrastructure, Application, etc.) and technologies and assess their potential application.

Assess products and procedures for inclusion in CZI’s infrastructure scaffolding and compliance with requirements, standards, and information assurance.
Provide regular updates to leadership on security program progress, risks, and mitigation strategies.
Partner with legal on risk-based reviews and training.
What You'll Bring
Technical program management, software engineering, or systems engineering experience.
Experience working on AI/ML security, application security, product security, infrastructure security, and/or IT security.
Experience collaborating with cross-functional teams, including Legal, Product Trust & Safety, Infrastructure Software Engineers, and Product teams.

Solid understanding of cloud-based infrastructure security (AWS, Azure, GCP) and on-prem environments.

Familiarity with CI/CD processes and secure software development practices (e.g., DevSecOps).
