Compliance & Regulatory

• Must have personally led or co-led PCI DSS certification (Level 1 preferred) and recurring audits

Leadership Profile

Team Scale

• Has managed cross-functional engineering orgs of 25–50+ people including software engineers, QA, DevOps/cloud, and possibly security
• Experience managing distributed or nearshore teams — Colombia, LATAM, or Eastern Europe exposure a strong differentiator

Delivery & Operations
