The ideal candidate is a recognized strategist and a respected authority within the CISO/CTO community.

  • Market Intelligence: Stay at the forefront of the cybersecurity landscape, including emerging threats and evolving global regulations, to ensure Commvault remains a competitive leader in the market.
  • Product Influence: Collaborate with internal leadership and R&D teams to translate market feedback and executive-level needs into actionable product roadmaps and features.
  • Risk Analysis: Assess complex security environments for clients, highlighting how integrated software solutions can mitigate risk and enhance organizational maturity.
 

Who you are...

  • A Proven Leader: A former CISO, CTO, or Deputy CISO/CTO who is widely respected as a strategist and thought leader within the global technology community.
  • Deeply Experienced: 15–20 years in technology-focused roles with a heavy emphasis on Cybersecurity, Risk Management, and Data Protection.
  • Cyber Resilience Expert: A master of security-in-depth principles, with a clear understanding of how to architect environments for maximum uptime and minimal data loss.
  • Strategic Communicator: Exceptional ability to translate highly technical concepts into business-aligned strategies for C-suite executives and stakeholders.
  • Customer-Centric Visionary: A track record of promoting technology products through the lens of solving critical business challenges and enhancing customer satisfaction.
  • Academically Grounded: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Cybersecurity, or a related field. An advanced degree (MBA or Master’s in a technical field) is highly preferred.
 

Bonus Qualifications

  • Elite Certification: CISSP, CISM, or other top-tier industry certifications.
  • Technical Breadth: Deep knowledge of cloud architectures (AWS, Azure, GCP), hybrid-cloud security, and the cybersecurity implications of distributed database systems.
  • Industry Influence: A history of published white papers, keynote speaking engagements, or participation in industry-shaping security forums.
  • Platform Knowledge: Previous experience with Commvault or other enterprise-grade data protection and recovery technologies.
