Position: Operational Excellence (OpEx) Lead

Foresite was founded in 2013 when our group of passionate security professionals saw what a nightmare organizations were facing to stay secure. We founded Foresite Cybersecurity with a mission: empower organizations of all sizes to navigate this ever-changing threat landscape.

Foresite is looking for a dynamic, execution-focused Operational Excellence (OpEx) Lead to drive the optimization and scale of our internal company workflows.

The ideal candidate is a hybrid professional: part Data Analyst (interpreting metrics to find bottlenecks), part Agile/Scrum Master (facilitating sprints and keeping internal teams aligned), and part Project Leader (owning initiatives from conception to delivery).

What You ll Do:

In this role, you will design, manage, and execute high-impact internal projects that optimize company workflows, scale infrastructure, and drive cross-functional efficiency. Reporting directly to the VP of Operations, this role serves as the bridge between raw operational data and agile execution.

Internal Project & Program Management

Own the lifecycle of critical internal operations projects aimed at scaling business processes, reducing overhead, and improving internal tooling.

Act as a strategic partner to the VP of Operations, translating high-level operational goals into actionable, phased project roadmaps.

Manage stakeholder communication across departments (Product, Engineering, Finance, HR) to ensure alignment and remove roadblocks for internal initiatives.

Establish and champion Agile frameworks within the Operations division, serving as the Scrum Master for internal project teams.

Facilitate daily stand-ups, sprint planning, backlog grooming, and retrospectives to ensure predictable, continuous delivery of internal milestones.

Coach non-technical teams on Agile best practices to foster a culture of iterative improvement and speed-to-market.

Data Driven Process Improvement

Dig into internal data, KPIs, and operational workflows to identify inefficiencies, waste, and areas for automation.

Define, track, and report on project success metrics and operational baseline data to prove the ROI of OpEx initiatives to the leadership team.

Build dashboards and clean data visualizations to make internal operational performance transparent and actionable for stakeholders.

Who You Are:

Experience: 2+ years of experience in project management, business operations, or continuous improvement roles, ideally in a fast-paced or tech-forward environment.

Agile Expertise: Proven experience acting as a Scrum Master or Agile Project Manager. Certification (e.g., CSM, PMI-ACP) is a strong plus.

Data Literacy: Strong proficiency in data analysis.

Experience with tools like SQL, Excel/Sheets (advanced), and data visualization platforms (e.g., Tableau, Power

BI, Looker) to turn data into narratives.

Methodological Toolkit: Familiarity with continuous improvement frameworks (Lean, Six Sigma, or Agile/Scrum).

Leadership & Influence: Exceptional communication skills with a proven ability to lead matrixed, cross-functional teams and influence without direct authority.

Why Join the Foresite Team?

At Foresite, we aren’t just another security provider—we are a mission-driven partner helping organizations navigate an increasingly complex threat landscape. Founded by passionate security practitioners, we’ve grown into a global leader in Sec Ops and MDR by staying true to our core value:
radical transparency.

When you join Foresite, you are part of a "humans-first" culture where your expertise is valued, and your well-being is a priority. We leverage our Google Cloud Premier Sec Ops Partnership to stay at the cutting edge, but we know that our greatest asset is our people.
