• Apply extensive analytical skills to address corporate strategy needs, understand technology specifics, determine how different parts of the business operation are connected, and understand how business processes achieve organizational goals
• Reduce time to revenue by managing the hand-off from pre-sales to implementation.
• Influence senior product development management on enterprise-level innovation and roadmap strategy.

Experience you'll need to have:

• Strong understanding of web application security concepts, session management, performance tuning, automated testing techniques, and high availability solutioning
• Working knowledge of cryptography, key management, and security solutions on both mobile and server platforms, with an understanding of security protocols and cryptographic technologies, including PKI, SSL, RSA, authentication, encryption, and digital signatures
