Remote Information Security Manager

Join the Mission to Secure Tomorrow’s Digital World

Ever wonder what it would feel like to drive information security strategies that touch thousands of lives, without the confines of a traditional office? Here’s your chance to elevate cybersecurity standards from anywhere. This fully remote Information Security Manager role is for the visionary who knows that cyber risk is not just a checklist, but a catalyst for innovation. The annual salary is $136,104.

Why This Role Matters

Imagine your decisions shaping the privacy and resilience of digital ecosystems that empower organizations to thrive and succeed. You’ll champion a holistic approach to security, ensuring data integrity and inspiring teams to make security a shared value. Every process you architect, every policy you craft, helps teams move faster, without sacrificing safety.

Your Core Impact

  • Drive the evolution of our security posture by anticipating threats, implementing risk assessments, and collaborating with remote engineering and product teams to protect sensitive data.
  • Your guidance empowers every department to make smarter security decisions. Instead of saying “no,” you coach colleagues to find secure ways to achieve their goals, on time and at scale.
  • You’ll deliver real business value by making compliance practical, audits meaningful, and controls actionable for a distributed, cloud-centric organization.
  • When incidents occur, your calm leadership and strategic communication reassure stakeholders, accelerate response, and minimize business impact. You simplify complex ideas—whether it's over Zoom, Slack, or a whiteboard session.

Responsibilities: From Threat Intelligence to Team Enablement

Shaping Security Strategies

  • Define, refine, and execute security strategies that empower business growth, not just compliance.
  • Identify evolving threats through continuous monitoring, threat intelligence, and scenario planning.
  • Foster a culture where secure coding and privacy-by-design are the norm, working closely with developers, product owners, and customer support.

Collaboration That Breaks Silos

  • Partner with engineering, legal, and operations to build unified solutions, breaking down barriers that typically slow security adoption.
  • Guide distributed teams through major security initiatives—like adopting zero-trust architectures or rolling out advanced MFA—making sure changes are embraced, not feared.
  • Lead tabletop exercises and post-incident reviews, turning every event into a learning opportunity.

Risk Management—Reimagined

  • Take ownership of risk assessments and vulnerability management, using cloud-native tools to monitor and remediate issues across the stack.
  • Your insights from security reviews and penetration tests will shape every technical decision, ensuring we don’t just patch, but future-proof.
  • Develop and maintain usable documentation, including quick reference guides, process flows, and actionable playbooks, that are accessible to remote teams worldwide.

Enablement & Training

  • Design and deliver engaging security training for teams worldwide, making security approachable and memorable.
  • Use phishing simulations and real-world scenarios to build intuition, not just awareness.
  • Mentor rising security talent, offering feedback that accelerates growth and builds confidence.

Tools & Environment

  • Orchestrate security in a cloud-first, remote environment using tools like CrowdStrike, Okta, and AWS Security Hub.
  • Rely on Notion and Confluence for living documentation, Jira for project management, and Slack for real-time collaboration.
  • You’ll shape onboarding workflows that reduce friction for our clients, ensuring new team members feel empowered, not overwhelmed, by our security standards.

What Sets You Apart

  • You move quickly, but you’ll always have space to focus intensely on significant security challenges.
  • Experience leading security initiatives for cloud-based organizations, designing policies for distributed teams, and guiding technical teams through regulatory audits.
  • Demonstrated ability to simplify technical concepts, bringing clarity to every conversation, whether addressing engineers or non-technical stakeholders.
  • A mindset dedicated to curiosity, growth, and turning every challenge into an opportunity to raise the bar on security and business progress.
  • Certifications like CISSP, CISM, or AWS Security Specialty are valued, but your impact, empathy, and outcomes matter most.

Growth & Impact

  • Your playbooks will shape security habits for teams operating across multiple time zones.
  • You’ll see the results of your work daily, from lower incident rates to grateful messages from colleagues who feel truly supported.
  • If you’re energized by significant challenges and eager to shape a resilient, people-first security culture, you’ll thrive here.
