8+ years' proven experience as a people leader, with a track record of leading and scaling engineering organizations of 20+ engineers through multiple layers of management across distributed teams and geographies. An ownership mentality, strong customer advocacy in technical decision-making, and the ability to lead teams optimally through ambiguity
Strong hands-on technical depth across security, identity, access control, or adjacent platform systems, with the ability to deep dive into identity and authorization concepts, write code, prototype, and lead architecture and design reviews
