This is a hands-on leadership role accountable for two core capability areas: Immutable backup recovery: immutable, air-gapped backup storage, malware and ransomware analysis on backup data, and digital forensics support to enable clean, trusted recovery decisions. Full-stack and bare-metal recovery: the capability to rebuild and restore infrastructure and applications from the ground up following a significant cyber-induced disruption. The environment spans on-premise data center infrastructure (mainframe, distributed databases, application servers on Linux/VMware, and enterprise storage) as well as public cloud. The successful candidate will bridge traditional infrastructure resiliency with modern cloud recovery patterns and will be a key partner to Security, Infrastructure, Business Continuity, Risk, and Technology leadership.

Talents Needed for Success:10+ years of progressive experience in infrastructure, disaster recovery, business continuity, or security roles, with at least 4-5 years in a leadership capacity. Demonstrated experience designing or operating cyber recovery capabilities (isolated recovery environments, immutable backups, bare-metal recovery) — not just traditional DR/BCP.Strong working knowledge of enterprise infrastructure, ideally spanning mainframe systems, distributed databases, Linux/VMware server environments, and enterprise storage platforms. Hands-on familiarity with public cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred) and recovery patterns (backup, snapshotting, cross-region/account recovery, access considerations for isolated recovery).Experience with ransomware/malware forensics concepts and backup integrity validation, or close partnership with forensics/IR teams. Experience leading enterprise-scale recovery exercises (tabletop through full-scale) and reporting outcomes to senior stakeholders. Strong understanding of regulatory/operational resilience expectations relevant to the industry. Excellent stakeholder management and executive communication skills; ability to translate technical recovery posture into business risk terms. Isolated backup and full-stack recovery capabilities are documented, tested, and validated against defined RTO/RPO targets for the organization's most critical services. A recurring cyber recovery exercise program is in place with executive-level reporting. Clear, auditable evidence of immutable backup coverage and recovery runbooks across on-premise and cloud environments. Strong working relationships established with Security, Infrastructure, Business Continuity, and Risk stakeholders.
