Role summary

FutureSecure AI is seeking a Senior Engineering Program Manager to lead and scale DevSecOps programs, bridging engineering, security, and product delivery. This role involves driving complex, cross-functional initiatives, requiring technical fluency to engage with engineers and architects. Responsibilities include end-to-end program planning and execution for CI/CD, cloud security, and compliance. The ideal candidate will manage program roadmaps, risks, and stakeholder communication, while also reviewing technical designs and facilitating discussions to resolve blockers. Experience with security frameworks like SOC 2 and NIST, and cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or GCP, is essential for driving structured, audit-ready programs.

Senior Engineering Program Manager, DevSecOps

FutureSecure AI (FSAI) | Full-Time

About the Role

FutureSecure AI is looking for a Senior Engineering Program Manager (EPM) to lead and scale our DevSecOps programs. You will sit at the intersection of engineering, security, and product delivery — driving complex, cross-functional initiatives. This role requires someone who is technically fluent enough to engage meaningfully with engineers and architects, challenge assumptions, identify dependencies, and help teams make better decisions — without being a hands-on engineer themselves.

What You'll Do

Program Leadership

  • Own the end-to-end planning, execution, and delivery of DevSecOps programs across CI/CD, cloud security, and compliance initiatives
  • Drive alignment across Engineering, Security, Infrastructure, and Product teams to ensure program objectives are clearly defined and consistently met
  • Maintain program roadmaps, track milestones, manage risks, and communicate status to senior leadership and stakeholders with clarity and confidence
  • Facilitate architectural and technical design reviews, contributing a program lens to identify upstream/downstream dependencies, sequencing risks, and delivery gaps

Technical Engagement

  • Develop and maintain a working understanding of FSAI's system architecture, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud security posture to engage credibly in technical discussions
  • Review and interpret architectural diagrams, dependency maps, and technical proposals — providing program-level commentary on feasibility, risk, and cross-team impact
  • Partner with engineers and security architects to surface technical blockers early and drive them to resolution

CI/CD & Platform Delivery

  • Program-manage the evolution of FSAI's CI/CD pipelines, including tooling upgrades, automation initiatives, and developer experience improvements
  • Coordinate across platform engineering, DevOps, and application teams to ensure pipeline changes are sequenced and communicated effectively

Cloud Security

  • Drive programs that improve FSAI's cloud security posture across AWS/Azure/GCP environments
  • Track and manage the delivery of security controls, guardrails, and architectural improvements in collaboration with the Security Engineering team

Compliance & Risk

  • Lead cross-functional efforts to achieve and maintain compliance with frameworks such as SOC 2, NIST 800-53, and ISO 27001
  • Own the program structure for audits, evidence collection, and remediation tracking — ensuring nothing falls through the cracks
  • Maintain a risk register for active programs and proactively escalate issues that threaten scope, schedule, or compliance posture

What You Bring

Experience

  • 5+ years in Engineering Program Management, Technical Program Management, or a related discipline
  • Demonstrated experience delivering programs in DevSecOps, platform engineering, or security-adjacent domains
  • Track record of managing large, multi-team programs from inception through delivery

Technical Fluency

  • Ability to read and engage with architectural diagrams, system flow documentation, and technical design proposals
  • Working knowledge of CI/CD concepts and tooling (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins, ArgoCD, Terraform, or similar)
  • Familiarity with cloud infrastructure concepts across one or more major cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP)
  • Understanding of security and compliance frameworks (SOC 2, NIST) sufficient to drive structured, audit-ready programs

Skills & Behaviors

  • Exceptional stakeholder management — comfortable presenting to executives and pushing back on engineers when needed
  • Strong ability to synthesize ambiguity into structured plans with clear owners, timelines, and decision points
  • Data-driven approach to tracking program health and communicating risk
  • Collaborative, low-ego leadership style with a bias toward unblocking teams

Nice to Have

  • Experience in a high-growth AI, fintech, or cybersecurity company
  • Familiarity with zero-trust architecture or secure software supply chain concepts
  • PMP, PMI-ACP, or SAFe certification
  • Experience with Jira, Confluence, Notion and modern program management tooling
