Sr. Technical Program Manager, Cybersecurity Remediation

The Role 

Moderna is seeking a Senior Technical Program Manager (TPM) to lead and coordinate cybersecurity remediation initiatives across the organization. We’re looking for someone who brings integrity, sound judgment, strong relationship-building skills, and cybersecurity expertise, and who can partner effectively across teams to move complex work forward. 

In this role, you will help lead the end-to-end remediation of security findings generated through scans, assessments, audits, incident reviews, investigations, and continuous monitoring. You will bring thoughtful program management, collaboration, and clear communication to a complex, cross-functional environment where responsiveness, quality, and partnership all matter. 

Here's What You'll Be Doing:

Program Ownership 

• Lead and coordinate the intake, prioritization, and execution of cybersecurity remediation programs using a structured, data-driven, and risk-based approach. 

• Responsible for end-to-end delivery of multiple concurrent remediation workstreams across Moderna technology and business teams, from identification through validation and closure. 

• Establish and manage a centralized remediation operating model, including governance, prioritization frameworks, SLAs, escalation paths, and execution tracking. 

• Define and monitor program metrics, risks, and trends to drive accountability, decisions, and continuous improvement. 

Risk and Remediation Management 

• Translate findings from vulnerability scans, penetration tests, risk assessments, incidents, audits, and investigations into actionable remediation plans. 

• Partner with teams to move remediation items through verification and closure, including management of exceptions and risk acceptance with appropriate sign-off. 

• Own the consolidated findings registry, maintaining a single authoritative view of vulnerabilities, risks, audit findings, post-incident action items, and assessment recommendations. 

• Lead executive- and board-level reporting on remediation posture, metrics, and systemic trends, translating technical risk into business-relevant language. 

• Identify recurring issues and drive longer-term improvements that strengthen cybersecurity practices and reduce future risk. 

Partner Engagement and Influence 

• Build strong relationships across security, engineering, and business teams to create alignment, navigate blockers, and influence prioritization in a highly matrixed environment. 

• Provide clear, concise, and executive-ready communications on program status, risks, decisions, and tradeoffs. 

• Partner with leaders to strengthen secure engineering and operational practices across the organization. 

• Actively contribute to creating a more inclusive culture and environment at Moderna; endorse, create, and maintain antiracist policies and processes. 

Here’s What You’ll Need (Basic Qualifications) 

• Experience: 8+ years in Technical Program Management, Cybersecurity Program Management, or similar roles. 

• Proven experience leading complex, cross-functional remediation programs in cybersecurity, infrastructure, or enterprise IT environments. 

• Strong understanding of cybersecurity domains such as vulnerability management, incident response, identity, cloud security, and application security. 

• Experience working with findings from audits, risk assessments, penetration tests, and security incidents. 

• Strong stakeholder partnership and influencing skills in highly matrixed organizations. 

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including executive-level communication. 

• Ability to define metrics, track progress, and use data to support clear and informed decision-making. 

• Strong listening skills, sound judgment, and a proactive approach to feedback and problem-solving. 

Here’s What You’ll Bring to the Table (Preferred Qualifications) 

• Experience with GxP environments and regulatory requirements. 

• Familiarity with vulnerability management platforms, GRC tools, and security tracking/reporting systems.

• Experience with post-incident review processes, including root cause analysis (RCA), CAPA management, and lessons-learned programs. 

• Experience implementing or scaling enterprise remediation or risk management programs. 

• Background in infrastructure, cloud, or security engineering. 

• Knowledge of security frameworks (e.g., NIST, ISO 27001, CIS). 

• Experience driving operational maturity improvements (process, tooling, governance). 

• Strong sense of ownership and urgency, with the ability to balance risk, timely execution, and business priorities. 

• Influential, inclusive, and trusted partner with a collaborative mindset.
