(698) Cybersecurity Portfolio Manager

N/A

Company Summary

Arlo Solutions (Arlo) is an information technology consulting services company that specializes in delivering technology solutions. Our reputation reflects the high quality of the talented Arlo Solutions team and the consultants working in partnership with our customers. Our mission is to understand and meet the needs of both our customers and consultants by delivering quality, value-added solutions. Our solutions are designed and managed to not only reduce costs, but to improve business processes, accelerate response time, improve services to end-users, and give our customers a competitive edge, now and into the future. 

Position Description: 

The Cybersecurity Portfolio Manager oversees a coordinated group of security programs, projects, and engagements — managing them collectively rather than in isolation so Arlo invests in the right work, at the right time, for the right return. Applying PMI-aligned portfolio and program management practices, this person defines portfolio components, establishes prioritization criteria, allocates resources, manages interdependencies and risk, and reports portfolio value to executive stakeholders.

The role blends rigorous delivery oversight with a forward-looking, growth-oriented posture — demonstrating portfolio thinking and the adaptability to shift between tactical coordination and strategic alignment. Equally important is the customer-facing dimension: the Portfolio Manager serves as a senior point of contact for clients, surfacing and resolving issues quickly, shaping new business opportunities, and championing Arlo’s decision support threat intelligence tool as a force multiplier for client risk decisions.

Location:  Arlo Solutions HQ / Hybrid (client-site travel as required)

    • Apply PMI standards (Standard for Portfolio Management, PMBOK) and Arlo governance frameworks to ensure consistent, auditable, and transparent decision-making.

    • Cultivate account growth by anticipating client needs, expanding the value Arlo delivers, and positioning new cybersecurity offerings.
    • Represent Arlo in client briefings, industry forums, and partner conversations to build pipeline and reinforce the firm’s market reputation.

    • Ensure threat intelligence outputs are integrated into portfolio risk assessments, prioritization decisions, and client advisory work.
    • Gather practitioner and client feedback to inform continuous improvement of the decision support tool and its underlying intelligence.
    • Use threat-informed insight to anticipate emerging risks and proactively reshape portfolio priorities.

    Stakeholder Engagement & Reporting

    • Prepare briefings and compliance-ready documentation for DoW sponsors, Arlo executives, and partners.
    • Gather user and stakeholder feedback and coordinate updates that improve delivery quality and system performance.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
