CISO

We are the global booking and payment platform for the trillion-dollar freight industry. Hundreds of airlines and ocean liners, thousands of freight companies, and over ten thousand importers and exporters use our platform to move goods around the world faster and more efficiently. This matters. Efficient freight ultimately makes things cost a little bit less when you buy them in the store. We are looking for a hybrid powerhouse: a Chief Information Security Officer. In this role, you will be the guardian of our trust. You will shape and drive our cybersecurity vision, ensuring our platform, products, people, and data remain secure while enabling innovation and business growth. You are the kind of leader who builds security into everything, protecting every digital doorway without slowing down the movement of global trade. From strategic risk management and governance to incident response and security engineering, you'll foster a culture where security is a business enabler, not a roadblock.
Responsibilities:
* Develop, implement, and continuously enhance our enterprise-wide cybersecurity strategy, policies, standards, and governance framework.
* Lead our information security program to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information assets.
* Identify, assess, and manage cybersecurity risks, ensuring appropriate controls are implemented to mitigate business and technology risks.
* Oversee security operations, including threat monitoring, vulnerability management, incident response, and remediation activities.
* Direct the development and execution of incident response, disaster recovery, and business continuity plans.
* Establish and maintain security architecture and best practices across cloud infrastructure, network, endpoint, application, and data environments.
* Ensure compliance with applicable laws, regulations, contractual obligations, and industry standards, and support internal and external audits.
* Develop and maintain security policies, procedures, and awareness programs that promote a strong culture of cybersecurity across the organization.
* Advise executive leadership and the Board of Directors on cybersecurity strategy, emerging threats, risk posture, and investment priorities.
* Lead and mentor the information security team, fostering professional development, accountability, and operational excellence.
* Manage cybersecurity budgets, evaluate emerging technologies, and recommend investments that improve the organization's security capabilities.
* Oversee identity and access management, data protection, encryption, and privileged access controls.
* Collaborate with SRE, IT, R&D, legal and business leaders to integrate security into organizational processes and strategic initiatives.
* Manage third-party and vendor cybersecurity risk assessments, ensuring external partners meet organizational security requirements.
* Monitor the evolving threat landscape and implement proactive measures to address emerging cybersecurity risks and improve the organization's overall security maturity.
