The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative was founded by Priscilla Chan and Mark Zuckerberg in 2015 to help solve some of society’s toughest challenges — from eradicating disease and improving education to addressing the needs of our local communities. Our mission is to build a more inclusive, just, and healthy future for everyone.

The Team

We believe in building a better future for everyone. As we engage directly in our communities, we must work from a shared place of trust. We know that our communities care deeply about how information is collected, used, and shared, and so do we. So when CZI builds products, supports grantees, makes venture investments, and purchases services from third-parties we consider their privacy and security and at every step of the process.

The Opportunity

We’re seeking a Technical Program Manager who will play a key role in priority enterprise-level initiatives, influence security across our organization, and drive the implementation of our Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning strategy. We are looking for TPM with a proven track record of developing and shipping high-quality AI/ML technologies and services and integrating them into products and experiences. This role will have the opportunity to work closely with AI/ML engineers, AI/ML Scientists, Infrastructure Engineers, Product Experience members, and leaders across the organization. The role will help evolve a security program focused on enabling CZI staff while ensuring that we protect sensitive information in an active and robust environment while adhering to security measures applied to the Production Infrastructure (e.g. architecture, authentication, data usage policies). We’ve set out to build a unique corporate security program by closely working with our engineering and security teams together rather than relying on traditional enterprise structures and silos.

What You'll Do

  • Partner closely and drive technical excellence with engineers, product managers, and others from CZI's technology teams to build flexible and robust security programs that continuously evaluate, track, and manage risks tied to architecture, infrastructure specifications, launch criteria, and test plans
  • Serve as an internal champion and consultant for security and privacy, demonstrate end-to-end ownership of security and thought leadership across multiple teams, and influence program direction and plans
  • Understand technology requirements, roadmap, dependencies, evolution, and develop a plan for mitigating risks and delivering features that meet the requirements across multiple products
  • Stay current with the latest AI/ML research and technologies and assess their potential application
  • Work cross-functionally to develop best practices and development processes in a quickly changing and dynamic environment, drive impact through the deployment of key initiatives, and garner adoption of those processes
  • Communicate complex AI/ML concepts and results to non-technical stakeholders in a clear and concise manner
  • Assess products and procedures for inclusion in CZI’s AI scaffolding and compliance with necessary requirements, standards, and information assurance
  • Participate in on-call rotations for security incident response

What You'll Bring

  • Technical program management, software engineering, or systems engineering experience
  • Experience working on application security, product security, infrastructure security, or IT security
  • Organized, methodical, and detail-oriented, with superior analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Strong leadership skills, with demonstrated ability to lead via influence in cross-functional environments
  • Excellent communication skills, in particular communicating technical concepts between audiences of varying backgrounds
  • Demonstrated willingness to get your hands dirty and do whatever it takes to achieve the team's end goals

The Redwood City, CA base pay range for this role is $178,000 - $267,000. New hires are typically hired into the lower portion of the range, enabling employee growth in the range over time.
