Lead and develop the Cybersecurity Engineering teams across Endpoint, Perimeter, and Cloud Security: set clear goals and priorities, provide day‑to‑day technical and people leadership, coach and mentor engineers, participate in hiring, and conduct regular performance and skills assessments.
Establish and maintain a documented training and certification plan for the team (including progression paths and succession planning), aligned with industry best practices and Garmin standards.
Contribute to the security engineering roadmap for Endpoint, Perimeter, and Cloud Security: provide significant input to strategy, translate business and risk requirements into actionable initiatives, and manage prioritization, trade‑offs, and delivery.
Contribute to the definition, implementation, and continuous improvement of security controls and architectures for endpoints, network/perimeter, and cloud environments (e.g., hardening standards, secure baselines, network segmentation, identity and access controls, data protection).
Drive improvements across people, process, and technology (operating model, tooling integration, automation, documentation, and cross‑team hand‑offs).
Define, track, and report meaningful engineering metrics and KPIs (e.g., control coverage, time to remediate, patch/coverage SLAs, vulnerability closure rates, endpoint compliance, perimeter rule hygiene) using industry and Garmin standards.
Guide, develop, document, and periodically test operational runbooks and playbooks for handling security‑related events and issues across endpoint, network, and cloud; ensure lessons learned are captured and fed back into engineering improvements.
Ensure that Cloud Security, Perimeter Security, and Endpoint Security requirements are consistently met or exceeded in all supported environments and projects.
Support risk assessments and technical security reviews by contributing expertise on endpoint, perimeter, and cloud security domains.
Foster a strong security culture by promoting best practices, awareness, and shared accountability across engineering and IT teams.
