Meet the Team
Splunk Global Security (SGS) is led by Splunk's Chief Information Security Officer and exists to defend Splunk, Cisco, and our customers. The Strategy, Planning, and Operations team helps SGS turn security priorities into executable programs, measurable outcomes, and repeatable operating practices. We work closely with security engineering, security operations, product security, GRC, identity and access management, infrastructure, product management, and customer trust teams across a global organization. This is a practical, high-context team that values technical clarity, calm execution, and strong partnership in work that directly improves customer trust and security resilience.
Your Impact
As a Technical Project Manager, you will lead technically complex cybersecurity programs across the CISO organization and with partners across Engineering, Product, IT, Compliance, Customer Trust, Legal, Procurement, and go-to-market teams when needed. You will drive programs spanning security engineering, product and platform security, cloud and infrastructure security, identity and access management, vulnerability remediation, secure software development, AI-enabled engineering or security workflows, compliance readiness, customer assurance, and security service delivery.
You will develop enough understanding of architectures, data flows, control design, telemetry, and engineering dependencies to identify gaps, unblock decisions, and connect technical work to risk reduction and customer impact. You will use metrics, dashboards, audit evidence, and stakeholder forums to surface material risks early and keep globally distributed teams accountable.
You will help launch security capabilities with the right runbooks, support
handoffs, customer assurance inputs, and awareness or GTM coordination so new capabilities land cleanly and can be operated at scale.
