Security Program Manager

About Latacora Latacora develops, grows, and maintains information security practices for tech-forward companies. We believe security is too broad and complex for one person to handle alone, so we give clients access to a team of specialists across application security, infrastructure security, detection and response, corporate security, risk and compliance, and security strategy. Our approach combines deep expertise with practical advice designed for the realities of growing companies. About The Role Latacora is looking for our next talented Security Program Manager to drive the planning, execution, and delivery of technical initiatives.

You’ll partner with the technical personnel to ensure products/deliverables are of the highest quality and meet client timelines. This role is remote, but a substantial portion of our team is in US time zones, so you’ll need to have significant overlap with US working hours. That said, we’re happy to hire anywhere in the US and can hire in other countries as well.

Partner with Security Architects and technical team members to translate technical requirements, client priorities, and security best practices into actionable project plans, roadmaps, milestones, and deliverables. Own the tactical rhythm of client engagements by prioritizing tasks, coordinating day-to-day execution, and keeping work moving across engineering, management, and client stakeholders. Manage cross-functional dependencies, risks, blockers, and escalation paths; proactively surface issues, coordinate remediation plans, and ensure the right stakeholders are engaged when decisions or intervention are needed. Facilitate recurring client and internal project touch points, including status meetings, quarterly roadmap reviews, planning conversations, stand-ups, and other operating cadences appropriate to the engagement. Track and communicate engagement status, health, KPIs, risks, and next steps clearly to clients, internal stakeholders and internal leadership. Collaborate with technical leads to align project priorities with team capacity, client needs, and engagement goals. Anticipate and strategically schedule future client work and business needs by staying informed, maintaining project documentation, anticipating compliance requirements, and communicating proactively with clients and internal teams.
