- Define secure authorization approaches for AI agents and MCP clients, including delegation, identity lifecycle, policy, and administrative controls.
- Drive developer-first access management, ensuring security controls enhance rather than obstruct developer velocity.
- Partner with engineering, design, GTM, and cross-functional leadership to validate enterprise requirements, prioritize initiatives, and measure feature adoption.
- Stay ahead of evolving cloud security paradigms, emerging standards (e.g., SPIFFE/SPIRE, O4AA), and AI access patterns to guide executive decision-making.

- Hands-on familiarity with cloud identity models across AWS, Azure, and GCP, as well as secret-reduction strategies (e.g., IAM roles, short-lived tokens, vaultless access).
- Conceptual and practical understanding of AI agent workflows, tool-calling interfaces (MCP), and non-human identity security challenges.
- Track record of building intuitive developer or administrative experiences for complex backend/infrastructure technologies.
