Job Description

• The IT & Security Governance Manager is responsible for advancing enterprise-wide technology maturity across corporate IT, cloud and product environments, and operational systems. • This role strengthens governance structures, data stewardship practices, security controls, and operational risk management to ensure that systems and data effectively support the organization's mission, strategic partnerships, and sustainable growth. • This position operationalizes compliance frameworks as structured tools to enhance efficiency, accountability, and resilience — leveraging them to improve processes, mitigate risk, and elevate overall technology governance rather than treating compliance as the sole objective.

Job Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Cybersecurity, Computer Science, or a related field, or a minimum of five (5) years of progressive experience in IT governance, security, or risk management.
  • Experience operating across multiple security and IT domains, including corporate IT security, cloud security, application security, incident response, and risk/compliance functions.
  • Strong understanding of identity and access management principles, including SSO, MFA, least privilege, and access review processes.
  • Working knowledge of common security controls and their implementation in operational environments, including logging, endpoint hardening, network controls, encryption, and backup management.
  • Experience contributing to IT governance, data governance, or system oversight in addition to security operations.
  • Ability to translate complex technical risk into clear, actionable plans for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Demonstrated ability to work effectively in a lean, mission-driven environment, prioritizing initiatives based on risk, impact, and organizational needs.
  • Experience leading or supporting audits and security frameworks such as PCI-DSS, SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST 800-53 Rev. 5, or HIPAA-adjacent controls (preferred).
  • Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and modern CI/CD pipelines (preferred).
  • Experience with endpoint management (MDM) and security tooling, including EDR, vulnerability scanners, and SIEM/log management platforms (preferred).
  • Familiarity with secure software development practices and threat modeling methodologies (preferred).
  • Relevant industry certifications such as Security+, SSCP, CISSP, CISM, CCSP, or equivalent (preferred).
  • Experience supporting grant-funded initiatives, multi-partner collaborations, or externally funded programs.

Benefits

  • Professional development opportunities
  • Flexible work arrangements
