What you’ll do
The InfoSec PMO team is seeking a ninja-skilled Project Manager to organize, plan, schedule, and deliver on our dynamic portfolio of technical and cross-functional initiatives. The ideal candidate will take a pragmatic approach to ensuring continual progress across multiple overlapping assignments, holding themselves accountable for adding value through the project outcomes they drive and achieve.
The successful incumbent will be a hands-on, proactive self-starter who collaborates effectively with InfoSec leadership and our business partners across the organization. Getting things done here requires persistence in clearing obstacles, applying just the right level of project management rigor, and working consistently with a due sense of urgency and velocity. A high-performing Project Manager in this environment brings internal consulting skills, willingness to be an additional pair of hands at times, and a relentless focus on setting, managing, and meeting stakeholder expectations. Success means owning the initiatives and moving them through to completion vs. simply facilitating and documenting the work of others. You’ll need to know or learn the subject matter, look for other initiatives that might impact your assignments, and actively lead all assigned initiatives to success from launch to closure. In addition to continually (re)prioritizing initiatives and executing on these priorities, the Project Manager is responsible for sprint and milestone planning using Jira, Confluence, backlog management, and ongoing status reporting to a variety of stakeholders and audiences.
A solid PM at Rubrik must do so much more than create and manage project schedules:
- bring disparate stakeholders to consensus on charter, priorities, and timing.
- drive organizational change and security maturity.
- address operational issues and processes needing improvement.
- define requirements and success criteria for targeted outcomes.
- move the needle on security remediation and risk reduction.
- handle project owner scope while getting leaders to handle service owner scope.
Reporting to the PMO Lead, this position will work responsively with multiple InfoSec Leaders to shape the plans and road map for InfoSec initiatives, ensuring accountability for timely completion of assigned and scheduled work. They will use solid communication and collaboration skills to manage stakeholder expectations and participation, and to resolve or escalate issues to keep things moving forward.
Responsibilities
- Drive multiple overlapping InfoSec initiatives in a hands-on Project Manager role.
- Work with Management to address security maturity pain points and challenges.
- Define plans and schedules to meet deadlines and timelines.
- Implement projects using formal and informal tools and methods tailored to an appropriate degree of project management rigor.
- Lead, plan, execute, and control assigned InfoSec initiatives, which may include a mix of operational and project-based work.
- Effectively influence and collaborate with others to achieve continual progress while effectively managing risks and changes.
- Manage milestones and complexities by leading through them.
- Anticipate issues so as to avoid them; escalate risks and blockers to leadership.
- Understand the landscape of related projects that may impact assigned initiatives.
Experience you’ll need
- 3-5 years prior work experience in a similar role in a SaaS company of small to medium size.
- Bias for action, especially in working through conflict or addressing ambiguity.
- Solid delivery skills as a project / program manager, handling concurrent initiatives.
- Pragmatic use of PMBOK / Project / Program Management/Agile best practices; applying these and other methods creatively to achieve targeted outcomes.
- Driven to organize, establish, and improve processes, balancing speed, efficiency, and effectiveness with internal customer involvement, consensus, and satisfaction.
- Superb interpersonal, verbal, and written communication skills with the ability to convey complex concepts to a broad range of technical and non-technical audiences.
- Bachelor’s degree required; in Information Security, Information Technology Management, Engineering, Business Management, or a related field is preferred.
- PMP / PgMP / equivalent and CISSP / CISA / CISM or similar certification(s)
