The Security Technical Program Manager is probably one of the most misunderstood roles today. If you ask five people what TPMs do, you will get wildly different answers, which makes it hard for folks to break into the role as well as recruit for the role. This talk will dive into what the role is, what the role is not (and what to do if you find yourself doing these things), what makes someone successful in this role, common (and uncommon) paths to securing your first TPM role, how to hire for this role, and why we think this is one of the best roles in security.
