Vice President, Information Technology

Hanover, MD

At Dragos, the mission is personal. The systems we protect deliver the water you drink, power your home, and keep the hospitals your community depends on running. Those critical infrastructure systems that power our civilization around the world are under attack every day by adversaries. When those systems fail, people are immediately at risk. We are the global leader in xOT cybersecurity, combining technology, threat intelligence, and expert services. The people here chose this work because they understand what is at stake. Here, you will find a remote-first mission-driven team across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and APAC built on authenticity, transparency, and trust. If safeguarding the systems that protect your family, friends, and community is the kind of work that matters to you, you are in the right place. 

About the Role: 

Dragos is rapidly scaling, and IT must match that scale. We are seeking a visionary and execution-oriented VP of IT to serve as a member of the executive leadership team and lead the next stage of enterprise growth. Reporting to the CFO, the VP of IT will define and execute the enterprise technology strategy, scale business platforms and operations globally, accelerate responsible AI adoption, and ensure Dragos has the digital capabilities required to support a rapidly growing, global organization. 

 

Responsibilities: 

  • Own enterprise IT strategy, architecture, and the technology roadmap, integrated with Dragos's growth plan 
  • Design and stand up an IT operating model and organizational structure that scales to 2,000+ employees, including a business platforms capability covering ERP, CRM, HR, legal, and collaboration systems 
  • Own Dragos's approach to AI adoption across the business — identifying where AI and agentic automation create real value in internal workflows and business platforms, driving adoption, and operating within the security and governance standards 
  • Own corporate infrastructure, AI, cloud, network connectivity and the digital workplace 
  • Build global IT support and service management to a consistent standard across the US, UK, UAE, and APAC, including coverage model, escalation, and service levels 
  • Own IT service management maturity — incident, request, change, asset, and configuration management  
  • Build a reusable M&A IT integration playbook covering identity, endpoint, network, business systems, and infrastructure ownership 
  • Own the enterprise data and analytics platform, including governance participation and enablement of self-service reporting 
  • Serve on the executive leadership team as a business partner to CxO peers, not solely as a technology voice; act as trusted advisor on technology-enabled business decisions 
  • Own the IT operating and capital budget, and IT vendor/SaaS lifecycle management in partnership with Procurement 
  • Build, lead, and develop the IT leadership team, including succession planning 
  • Partner with the CISO as a peer: deliver within security standards set by the CISO, provide telemetry and platform access, and escalate rather than route around disagreements 

Qualifications: 

  • 15+ years in IT or business technology, including 5–7+ years in senior IT leadership 
  • Demonstrated experience building or scaling an IT function through significant headcount growth — built for the size the company was becoming, not the size it was 
  • M&A IT integration experience as an owner, ideally across multiple transactions; serial-acquirer experience strongly preferred 
  • Business platform ownership: ERP, CRM, and the architecture connecting them 
  • Experience building global support and service delivery across multiple regions and time zones 
  • Budget ownership with demonstrated cost discipline 
  • Experience operating alongside an independent security function, with a track record of partnering with a CISO  
  • Comfortable operating as a business leader as much as a technology leader — active in strategy, not just delivery 
  • Software, SaaS, or technology-vendor environment preferred; cybersecurity industry experience valued but not required 
  • Experience in a company subject to ISO 27001, SOC 2, or similar compliance regimes preferred 

Compensation: 

  • Salary:  $285,000.00
  • Competitive Equity Package  
  • Comprehensive Benefits Plan

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 07/31/2029

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. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

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.
