Success in this role relies upon managing, driving, and realizing impactful results in collaborative efforts across the enterprise.

Key Responsibilities

Engineering Partnership & Relationship Management

Strategic Liaison: Act as the primary, trusted point of contact for 2K Infrastructure & Security with Take-Two Interactive, focusing on engineering, support, infrastructure, tooling, legal, and enterprise software teams.

Drive Alignment: Facilitate infrastructure and compliance mandates into prioritized, actionable engineering work. Ensure technical roadmaps are aligned with business priorities and regulatory deadlines without sacrificing service velocity.

Conflict Resolution & Advocacy: Proactively identify and resolve organizational and technical friction points. Serve as an advocate for 2K engineering teams to Global Support, Security, Operations, Data, and Feature teams, clearly articulating technical constraints, resource needs, and trade-offs.

Audit Readiness: Partner with security and engineering teams to prepare for internal and external audits (e.g., SOX, GDPR, ISO). Coordinate evidence collection and manage the program for timely closure of all audit findings and control deficiencies.

Risk Mitigation: Proactively identify technical risks associated with non-compliance or systemic operational flaws (patching, security findings, technical debt). Develop and execute program plans to mitigate these risks before they impact business operations or compliance posture.

Technical Compliance & Governance

Process Improvement: Partner with PMO and across 2K Technology teams to automate compliance evidence gathering and streamline compliance processes (e.g., access reviews, configuration management) to reduce manual burden on engineers..

Reporting: Develop and maintain dashboards and reports that provide a holistic, data-driven view of the organization's technical compliance and vulnerability posture for executive review.

Operations: Ensure sustainable, predictable processes are in place to ensure ongoing closure and management of infrastructure and engineering processes. Drive issues to closure and ensure they stay closed by building compliance activities into everyday work.

What You Need:

Experience: 5+ years in technical program management with significant experience in technical program delivery, compliance, and/or infrastructure/IT operations programs in a matrixed enterprise.

Relationship Focus: Exceptional ability to build and maintain trust-based relationships with cross-functional technical teams, studio personnel, and management. This includes effective collaboration with peers, partners, and executives.

Program Discipline: Proven expertise in applying core program management methodologies (e.g., scope, risk, dependency management) in a dynamic environment.

Executive Presence: Demonstrated ability to articulate complex technical risks and program statuses clearly and confidently to executive and non-technical audiences: written, visual, presentation.
