- Excellent problem-solving abilities and a strategic mindset, capable of anticipating future security challenges in high-trust environments and evolving control requirements
- Enthusiasm for scalable, reproducible security practices with strong documentation and audit readiness
- Self-motivated and creative problem-solver able to work independently, exercise sound judgment in ambiguous situations, and manage competing priorities across geographically distributed environments
- Experience working in financial services, digital asset management, or financial technology is strongly desired
- In-depth knowledge of security best practices, compliance standards, and regulatory requirements, particularly within the Financial and/or Blockchain/digital asset industry
- 7+ years of experience in security engineering or operations, with a minimum of two years in a senior or lead capacity managing endpoint security programs, executive/VIP security environments, or high-security physical-logical environments
- Experience/familiarity with Slack, Apple macOS, iOS, Google Workspace, CrowdStrike, Iru, Zscaler, Proofpoint, AWS, Tines, Github
