As the most trusted brand in our industry, Docusign recognizes the profound importance of maintaining and enhancing customer trust in our products. The Senior Director, Product Security leads all aspects of the Docusign Product Security program. The Senior Director will be a product focused, technically proficient leader who manages the development of products and features to provide for the security and trust of the platform. This role has responsibility for the secure software development lifecycle (SDLC) and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) for products developed for customers as well as internal usage at Docusign.

The Senior Director and their team of security engineers and architects embed within Product, Technology, and Digital Technology teams to manage product development, security controls, and processes to ensure optimal security by design and default while supporting business objectives. The Senior Director will integrate leading security practices into all phases of product development including planning, design, implementation, testing, deployment and maintenance to proactively reduce vulnerabilities and broader risks. The role will oversee developer technical designs (e.g., secure coding criteria, architectural designs, developer libraries, code reviews, etc.), as well as SDLC and CI/CD processes, gating, and execution. In particular, the Senior Director will implement leading security practices directly into the software delivery pipeline, ensuring code integrity from development to production, and mitigate risks while performing automated scanning, testing, and compliance checks at every stage and remediation as required.

The Senior Director will implement contemporary, cost-effective tools and practices to maximize efficiencies while providing appropriate technical security rigor. They will leverage emerging tools, like AI guardrails and AI-native tools that provide code context reasoning, to protect against longstanding security risks (e.g., OWASP Top 10) and more sophisticated and developing threats (e.g., OWASP Top 10 for Agentic Applications). The Senior Director will lead a robust Security Champions program to scale security awareness, implement secure coding principles, and empower developer-led code reviews and risk mitigation where appropriate. They will work closely with Docusign's Red Team and PSIRT to proactively identify and remediate vulnerabilities and systemic risks. And they will provide deep, technical expertise in leading the Product Security team, advising senior leaders, and shaping the behaviors of cross-functional teams.

This position is a people manager role reporting to the Chief Information Security Officer.
