Information Security Lead
Hyderabad, India | Full time| 8–9 Years Experience

Work Mode:- WFO
Notice:- Immediate to 30days

About the Role
We're looking for a seasoned security leader with 8–9 years of experience to own and scale our enterprise security program. You'll set the strategic direction for information security and cyber risk, build board-level trust in our security posture, and lead a team through a period of rapid growth and technology transformation — including securing the AI systems now central to our product. This role blends governance and strategy with genuine hands-on depth: you'll be as comfortable presenting risk themes to the board as you are stress-testing an LLM for prompt injection.
What You'll Do
Strategy & Governance
Define and drive the organization's information security and cyber risk strategy, aligned with business objectives.
Lead enterprise-wide Information Security Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) initiatives — policy, standards, and control frameworks.
Build board-level visibility into security posture, priorities, governance maturity,



and enterprise risk themes.
Ensure alignment with applicable regulations, standards, and audit requirements (ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, PCI-DSS, NIST, CMMC/FedRAMP as applicable).
Cloud, Application & Infrastructure Security
Own cloud security posture across AWS, Azure, and GCP — including CNAPP, CSPM, and workload protection for cloud-native and containerized environments.
Embed security into the SDLC through DevSecOps practices: SAST/DAST, dependency scanning, and secure code review gates in CI/CD pipelines.
Lead security initiatives spanning cloud, application, infrastructure, and data protection, plus broader cyber resilience.
Own identity and access strategy — least-privilege access, MFA, and privileged access management (PAM).
Security Operations & Risk
Strengthen security operations through automation, proactive threat detection (SIEM/XDR), incident response, and vulnerability management.
