  • Establish and maintain security certifications, attestations, and compliance requirements such as ISO/IEC 27001 and SOC 2.
  • Oversee software supply-chain security, third-party risk assessments, and secure adoption of external technologies and services.
  • Monitor emerging technologies including AI, generative AI, connected infrastructure, digital twins, and operational technology, providing practical security guidance to support innovation.
  • Partner with the CISO and Information Security Office to ensure alignment with the Global Information Security Framework and contribute to ongoing security governance and reporting.
  • Champion a strong security culture by building awareness and capabilities across product, engineering, and solution teams.
