    About the role

    Motive empowers the people who run physical operations with tools to make their work safer, more productive, and more profitable. Safety, operations and finance teams can manage their drivers, vehicles, equipment, and fleet related spend in a single system.

    Motive is seeking a Senior Security Technical Program Manager to drive execution of the Security & Privacy Roadmap and other high-priority security risk-reduction programs. You will turn complex goals into sequenced plans and align Security, Product, Engineering, Privacy, Legal, and business partners.

    This role is well suited to a hands-on program leader who can move between technical detail and executive narrative, measuring success by durable risk reduction and shipped outcomes.

    What you'll do

    • Maintain the integrated Security & Privacy Roadmap from intake through delivery and operational handoff.
    • Lead cross-functional execution of major security programs including identity and access management, vulnerability remediation, and data protection.
    • Coordinate quarterly planning inputs, capacity and sequencing discussions, and prioritization trade-offs.
    • Run effective program reviews and maintain concise plans, RAID logs, decision records, and dashboards.
    • Develop accurate, board-ready narratives and presentations that explain risk and progress against commitments.
    • Improve the security program operating model to identify recurring delivery or governance gaps.

    What they're looking for

    • 7+ years of experience leading complex technical programs in cybersecurity, product security, or privacy.
    • Track record of delivering multi-team programs across engineering and business functions.
    • Strong fundamentals in dependency management, risk resolution, capacity planning, and outcome-based reporting.
    • Ability to understand security architecture and translate technical details into business impact.
    • Excellent executive writing and presentation skills for producing board-level materials.
    • Demonstrated AI-first mindset in executing programs versus manual follow-ups.
    • Authorization to access commodities and technologies controlled under U.S. Export Administration Regulations.

    Nice to have

    • Experience in a SaaS or technology company with complex products and customer data.
    • Familiarity with IAM, authorization, vulnerability management, or privacy engineering.
    • Experience defining program metrics, risk indicators, and executive dashboards.
