The Team

Kraken is looking for a talented Technical Project Manager with excellent communication and analytical skills to help us improve and optimize our Security program. We are seeking someone with a mixture of proactivity, attention to detail, technical acumen, and who can function comfortably in a variety of security disciplines.

In this role you’ll be responsible for the execution and success of various security-related projects. You will primarily work within and across teams in IT and Security to own, drive, and improve the non-technical aspects of project lifecycles. You should be comfortable and experienced in implementing both agile and waterfall approaches in a flexible and context-dependent fashion. In our hyper-growth environment, there is a balance to strike between implementing processes that are lightweight, purposeful, course correcting, and scalable. The ideal candidate will be passionate about simplifying the complex, driving smooth coordination towards clear, shared goals, and have an overall optimistic outlook towards the future.
