The role will oversee developer technical designs (e.g., secure coding criteria, architectural designs, developer libraries, code reviews, etc.), as well as SDLC and CI/CD processes, gating, and execution. In particular, the Senior Director will implement leading security practices directly into the software delivery pipeline, ensuring code integrity from development to production, and mitigate risks while performing automated scanning, testing, and compliance checks at every stage and remediation as required.

The Senior Director will implement contemporary, cost-effective tools and practices to maximize efficiencies while providing appropriate technical security rigor. They will leverage emerging tools, like AI guardrails and AI-native tools that provide code context reasoning, to protect against longstanding security risks (e.g., OWASP Top 10) and more sophisticated and developing threats (e.g., OWASP Top 10 for Agentic Applications). The Senior Director will lead a robust Security Champions program to scale security awareness, implement secure coding principles, and empower developer-led code reviews and risk mitigation where appropriate.

They will work closely with Docu Sign’s Red Team and PSIRT to proactively identify and remediate vulnerabilities and systemic risks. And they will provide deep, technical expertise in leading the Product Security team, advising senior leaders, and shaping the behaviors of cross-functional teams.
