Sr Manager, Product Security
* Led and contributed to world-class TurboTax Ops and season readiness processes, focusing on operational rigor, FMEA, target architecture, and performance architecture - leading to operational improvements, enhanced technical architectures, and lowered hosting costs. During this time, there were no customer-impacting outages during peak periods of revenue recognition, with increased durability of systems, improved monitoring, and improved macro and inter-system diagrams.
* Created and drove an AWS program inside of CTG to align architectural decisions, security analysis and hygiene, cost management, and shared learnings. Multiple initiatives from this program included reduction in financial run rates, improved leadership visibility into process and cost, up-leveling of teams’ operational model in AWS, and architectural efficiencies. Increased security visibility and internal Intuit success metric scores.
* Championed and delivered numerous impactful initiatives, including AWS service migrations, AWS Migration Cost Planning (leading to multiple tools now deployed throughout Intuit), central Configuration Management service, monitoring/logging alignment, and embedding security into operational and architectural considerations.
* Co-drove cross-functional budget efforts across CTG hosting, leading to increased visibility into cost areas, cost-optimization for multiple applications, alignment of data-center and cloud-based workload budgets, and sensitivity and what-if analyses to provide senior leadership with frames for understanding cost implications of architecture or demand-related changes.
