Being the cybersecurity partner of choice, protecting our digital way of life.

We’re looking for a Program Manager to drive operational excellence, process innovation, and strategic program management for the Global Security Architecture Practice. In this role, you won’t just manage processes; you will engineer the operating system of the future for our practice. You will design, build, and manage the business processes that enable our Principal Architects to scale. This role is responsible for transforming the Palo Alto Networks’ collective security and innovation expertise into AI-driven consulting methodologies and assets that drive consistency, efficiency, and quality in all of GSAP’s client engagements.

You’ll partner closely with the Principal Architects and their leadership, as well as cross-functional teams including Sales and Technical Solutions, Product Management, Enterprise Security, and Unit42 consultants. Through these partnerships you will develop intellectual property, programs, and processes that help our Architects do their work.

Key Responsibilities

• Program Management & Enablement:

  • Build and maintain structure to define our formal partnership with Enterprise Security and Product Management, ensure that interactions are regular and substantive, and information sharing is structured, consistent, and bi-directional.

  • Own and execute the CoE's operating cadence, including the quarterly review of all library assets and the intake process for new contributions.

  • Drive adoption of CoE tools and methodologies across the global GSAP team through clear communications, training, and a strong feedback loop.

• Practice Development & Content Curation:

  • Partner with senior architects to translate their expertise into high-quality, reusable assets including templates and accelerators, standardized presentations, and strategic playbooks that are designed to be populated and customized by AI.

  • Implement a dynamic content strategy where advisory assets are easily updated and synthesized by AI tools.

  • Own and manage the central IP library ensuring all content is organized, current, and easy to access for both the Architects and AI agents.

• Process Creation, Improvement & Management:

• Implement systems to support clear, organized knowledge-sharing (e.g., permissioned Google Drive structures, audience-specific distribution lists) that scale across regional and functional teams.

• Engineer AI-native workflows by evaluating processes through a lens of automation, designing systems where AI is the primary engine of execution.

• Identify process gaps and operational inefficiencies, deploying human-in-the-loop solutions that maximize speed and free up Architects for deep-dive strategic work.

• Implement systems for knowledge sharing that capture "tribal knowledge" and automatically convert it into institutional assets.

Your Experience

• Experience in a management consulting, practice operations, business analyst, or technical program management role, preferably within a professional services or enterprise technology organization.

• Fluency in AI-driven operations, with the ability to view AI and automation as strategic levers that fundamentally change the reach and velocity of a practice.

• Exceptional organizational and project management skills; able to manage multiple complex projects and a library of assets with rigor and attention to detail.

• An excellent communicator and influencer who is passionate about training others and driving the adoption of new tools and processes.

• An understanding of the cybersecurity landscape is a major plus, but deep, practitioner-level security expertise is not required.
