5. Experience with KMS, secrets management, PKI, and certificate lifecycle.

7. Ability to enforce guardrails without unnecessarily blocking Platform/SRE/DevOps delivery.
8. Understanding of SOC 2, ISO 27001, or DORA is a plus.

2. Clear communication with Platform, SRE, DevOps, IT, and Security leadership.
3. Ability to prioritize based on risk, exposure, and business impact across a broad tech surface.

5. Low-ego, collaborative style influencing infrastructure teams without relying only on formal authority.
6. Comfortable operating in a fast-evolving environment with partially mature processes.
