CIO Opportunity At Snyk

Snyk is the leader in secure AI software development, helping millions of developers develop fast and stay secure as AI transforms how software is built. Our AI-native Developer Security Platform integrates seamlessly into development and security workflows, making it easy to find, fix, and prevent vulnerabilities — from code and dependencies to containers and cloud.

Our mission is to empower every developer to innovate securely in the AI era — boosting productivity while reducing business risk. We're not your average security company - we build Snyk on One Team, Care Deeply, Customer Centric, and Forward Thinking.

It's how we stay driven, supportive, and always one step ahead as AI reshapes our world.

Why This Role?

Snyk is in a uniquely powerful position, operating in the category we helped define: the AI Security Fabric. As an Executive Leadership Team member reporting to the CFO, you will shape the next phase of a category-defining company. This is a "business-first" CIO role designed for a leader who views technology as a vehicle for growth and operational excellence.

You will lead our global technology organization, driving digital transformation and ensuring our enterprise systems scale seamlessly with our mission-critical role in the software ecosystem. This is your chance to build at scale and have a meaningful impact on global markets and enterprise customers during a period of high-growth independence and strategic expansion.

What You'll Do:

• Own the Enterprise Ecosystem: Evolve and lead the strategy for our global application stack (ERP, CRM, HRIS, and Data Platforms) to ensure global system harmonization.
• Drive Digital Transformation: Identify and implement AI-powered automation opportunities to reduce manual processes and improve accuracy across GTM and Finance.
• Architect Data Insights: Build modern data infrastructure and KPI frameworks that enable real-time, executive-level decision-making.
• Lead Strategy & Governance: Define a multi-year IT roadmap that aligns technical infrastructure with Snyk's long-term commercial business strategy.
• Champion Operational Excellence: Oversee IT operations, infrastructure, and service desk while maintaining a robust, secure-by-design cybersecurity posture.
• Mentor & Scale Teams: Build and lead high-performing global teams, serving as an expert coach to develop the next generation of technical leaders.
• Influence Cross-Functionally: Partner with Finance, Sales, and Product to ensure technology accelerates growth and reduces system sprawl.

What You Bring:

• Executive Leadership: 15+ years of progressive IT leadership with a track record of success in executive-level roles at high-growth, multi-region organizations.
• Systems Expertise: Deep mastery of enterprise data architecture, financial systems, and large-scale ERP/CRM implementations.
• Strategic Vision: The ability to translate complex business needs into a clear technical vision that informs what is possible for the organization.
• Financial Acumen: Strong experience partnering with CFOs and RevOps to manage budgets, vendor ecosystems, and cost discipline.
• Change Leadership: A pragmatic, hands-on approach to leading digital transformation and solving problems that span the entire organization.

It'd Be Awesome If You Also…

• Have experience navigating future liquidity events or large-scale strategic expansions.
• Are a "Systems Thinker" who can dive to arbitrary technical depth when a showstopper arises.
• Bring a sense of humor—we take our mission seriously, but not ourselves!
• Can build presentations that keep a board room awake

We care deeply about the warm, inclusive environment we've created and we value diversity – we welcome applications from those typically underrepresented in tech. If you like the sound of this role but are not totally sure whether you're the right person, do apply anyway!
