• Direct, hands-on experience building or executing a cybersecurity program in a complex multinational environment, China specifically preferred, including familiarity with local regulatory frameworks and cross-border data requirements.
• Manufacturing, industrial, or engineer-to-order environment experience, including OT/connected product security exposure, is a strong plus.
• Experience operating within an SAP or major ERP landscape is a plus, given the tight coupling between security and the company's core systems.
