Sr. Technical Program Manager

Future Secure AI
Austin, Texas Metropolitan Area

Senior Engineering Program Manager, DevSecOps

FutureSecure AI (FSAI) | Full-Time


About the Role

FutureSecure AI is looking for a Senior Engineering Program Manager (EPM) to lead and scale our DevSecOps programs. You will sit at the intersection of engineering, security, and product delivery — driving complex, cross-functional initiatives. This role requires someone who is technically fluent enough to engage meaningfully with engineers and architects, challenge assumptions, identify dependencies, and help teams make better decisions — without being a hands-on engineer themselves.


What You'll Do

Program Leadership

  • Own the end-to-end planning, execution, and delivery of DevSecOps programs across CI/CD, cloud security, and compliance initiatives
  • Drive alignment across Engineering, Security, Infrastructure, and Product teams to ensure program objectives are clearly defined and consistently met
  • Maintain program roadmaps, track milestones, manage risks, and communicate status to senior leadership and stakeholders with clarity and confidence
  • Facilitate architectural and technical design reviews, contributing a program lens to identify upstream/downstream dependencies, sequencing risks, and delivery gaps

Technical Engagement

  • Develop and maintain a working understanding of FSAI's system architecture, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud security posture to engage credibly in technical discussions
  • Review and interpret architectural diagrams, dependency maps, and technical proposals — providing program-level commentary on feasibility, risk, and cross-team impact
  • Partner with engineers and security architects to surface technical blockers early and drive them to resolution

CI/CD & Platform Delivery

  • Program-manage the evolution of FSAI's CI/CD pipelines, including tooling upgrades, automation initiatives, and developer experience improvements
  • Coordinate across platform engineering, DevOps, and application teams to ensure pipeline changes are sequenced and communicated effectively

Cloud Security

  • Drive programs that improve FSAI's cloud security posture across AWS/Azure/GCP environments
  • Track and manage the delivery of security controls, guardrails, and architectural improvements in collaboration with the Security Engineering team

Compliance & Risk

  • Lead cross-functional efforts to achieve and maintain compliance with frameworks such as SOC 2, NIST 800-53, and ISO 27001
  • Own the program structure for audits, evidence collection, and remediation tracking — ensuring nothing falls through the cracks
  • Maintain a risk register for active programs and proactively escalate issues that threaten scope, schedule, or compliance posture


What You Bring

Experience

  • 5+ years in Engineering Program Management, Technical Program Management, or a related discipline
  • Demonstrated experience delivering programs in DevSecOps, platform engineering, or security-adjacent domains
  • Track record of managing large, multi-team programs from inception through delivery

Technical Fluency

  • Ability to read and engage with architectural diagrams, system flow documentation, and technical design proposals
  • Working knowledge of CI/CD concepts and tooling (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins, ArgoCD, Terraform, or similar)
  • Familiarity with cloud infrastructure concepts across one or more major cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP)
  • Understanding of security and compliance frameworks (SOC 2, NIST) sufficient to drive structured, audit-ready programs

Skills & Behaviors

  • Exceptional stakeholder management — comfortable presenting to executives and pushing back on engineers when needed
  • Strong ability to synthesize ambiguity into structured plans with clear owners, timelines, and decision points
  • Data-driven approach to tracking program health and communicating risk
  • Collaborative, low-ego leadership style with a bias toward unblocking teams


Nice to Have

  • Experience in a high-growth AI, fintech, or cybersecurity company
  • Familiarity with zero-trust architecture or secure software supply chain concepts
  • PMP, PMI-ACP, or SAFe certification
  • Experience with Jira, Confluence, Notion and modern program management tooling
