[Hiring] Technical Program Manager - Cyber Defense, Metrics and Business Intelligence @Nscale

Role Description

We’re hiring a Technical Program Manager - Cyber Defense, Metrics and Business Intelligence to help the Cyber Defense organization turn fast-moving security work into clear programs, measurable outcomes, and executive-ready reporting.

This role sits at the intersection of Incident Response, Pen Testing, Enterprise Security, Cyber Defense, GRC, and executive stakeholders. It is not a traditional project management role — it combines strong TPM execution with Business Intelligence Engineering capabilities such as:

• Data modeling
• Metrics design
• Dashboarding
• Risk analysis
• Source-of-truth management

Your work will help Nscale scale security through mechanisms, not meetings. By bringing structure to ambiguous programs, exposing blockers early, and making security work evidence-backed and measurable, you’ll help strengthen:

• Deployment readiness
• Customer trust
• Compliance
• Operational resilience
• Risk reduction

What you'll be doing

• Security Program Delivery
  • Lead security program delivery across cyber defense, incident response, internal and 3rd party security testing, detection, and compliance-linked initiatives.
  • Bring structure to ambiguous, fast-moving security programs with clear owners, milestones, blockers, and decision points.
  • Track dependencies, delivery status, and remediation progress across multiple stakeholders and workstreams.
  • Escalate issues early and help teams drive action through to completion.
• Metrics, Reporting, and BI
  • Define security metrics covering delivery, coverage, risk reduction, control health, exceptions, and evidence quality.
  • Build executive-ready reporting views that translate technical security work into clear business impact.
  • Create dashboards that show what is covered, what is blocked, what is overdue, and what risk remains.
  • Model security program data across assets, users, devices, applications, findings, controls, owners, exceptions, tickets, evidence, and remediation status.
• Operating Mechanisms and Governance
  • Establish a weekly operating rhythm for program reviews, blocker escalation, roadmap tracking, and leadership reporting.
  • Maintain decision logs, action tracking, and follow-through across cross-functional security initiatives.
  • Develop intake and prioritization mechanisms that clarify what to do now, what to defer, and what risk is being accepted.
  • Improve execution with lightweight mechanisms that reduce process drag while increasing accountability.
• Cross-Functional Coordination and Audit Readiness
  • Coordinate across security, IT, engineering, compliance, and operations teams to keep programs aligned and moving.
  • Identify the most important data sources for reliable security reporting and document gaps, owners, and cleanup actions.
  • Support evidence and audit readiness by ensuring key decisions, control outcomes, and remediation work are traceable.
  • Deliver reporting improvements that reduce manual status gathering and give leadership a clearer view of risk and progress.
• KPIs
  • Delivery status across priority security programs
  • Security coverage and control health metrics
  • Risk reduction and blocker resolution progress
  • Evidence quality and audit readiness

Qualifications

• 6+ years in technical program management, security program management, business intelligence engineering, data analytics, security operations, or related roles
• Experience working directly with security, IT, infrastructure, cloud, identity, cyber defense, GRC, or engineering teams during or adjacent to incident response activities
• Strong BI skills including data modeling, metrics definition, dashboard design, and data quality management
• Proven ability to manage complex cross-functional programs with ambiguous requirements and multiple stakeholders
• Ability to translate technical security detail into clear executive-level reporting
• Strong written communication, issue framing, decision tracking, and stakeholder management skills
• Practical understanding of security concepts such as identity, endpoint security, vulnerability management, incident response, access control, logging, compliance, and risk management
• Ability to build lightweight mechanisms that improve execution without creating unnecessary process drag
• Experience in a high-growth technology, cloud, infrastructure, AI, regulated, or customer-trust-sensitive environment is preferred
• Experience with security dashboards, control-health reporting, risk registers, audit evidence views, operational scorecards, data pipelines, workflow automation, ticketing data, asset data, security telemetry, or compliance evidence is a plus
