Implement strategic and measured changes to improve operations and align technology with business values. Ensure that in-house developed systems and supporting technologies, including networks, servers, databases and cloud services, remain operational and maintain data and process integrity. Maintain an effective cyber security program and incident response plan and develop and maintain policies and procedures. Develop and implement a technology strategy that supports TRAF's long-term vision and oversee a thoughtful transition from legacy systems to new technologies where necessary or desirable. Conduct risk assessments and implement risk mitigation strategies across all technology functions and ensure compliance with relevant laws, regulations, and industry standards. Present technical content effectively to a range of audiences, including Board members and stakeholders, and participate actively in executive and Board meetings. Develop and manage strong vendor relationships to ensure high-quality and cost-effective service delivery. Develop and maintain documentation of technology design and structure. Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, information technology or a related field; an MBA is ideal.
  • Minimum of 10 years of experience in a senior technology leadership role.
  • Proven experience in developing and implementing technology strategies.
  • Strong knowledge of IT infrastructure and emerging technologies.
  • Strong focus on cyber security, network security and system changes.
  • Experience ensuring operational integrity of mainframe environments (iSeries or AS400).
  • Demonstrated ability to present technical content to diverse audiences, including executive leadership and Board members.
  • Senior strategic thinker with strong analytical and risk management skills.
  • Ability to bridge technology and business to drive efficiencies.
