Nice to have

Compensation

  • Define annual IT & Security strategy, roadmap, and budget in alignment with Engineering and company objectives

Company info

  • This is a critical leadership role for a company that operates secure, high-performance networks in airports, transit hubs, military bases, stadiums, and commercial - and that depends on a modern, compliant, and automated corporate technology foundation to support that mission.
