  • Establish automation standards and reusable patterns to accelerate delivery and improve reliability (e.g., gold templates, validation gates, automated rollback approaches).

Solution Architecture for Integrations

  • Act as solution engineer for integrations between network services and enterprise tools/platforms, ensuring end-to-end operational workflows are scalable and supportable (examples: monitoring/telemetry pipelines, configuration/compliance systems, ITSM/ticketing, CMDB asset integrity, security event workflows, and identity-driven access control).
  • Ensure engineering decisions support operational outcomes: observability, auditability, resilience, and reduced mean time to restore.

Security & Service Enablement

  • Interface with customer and stakeholder teams to design and continuously deliver security-related enhancements.
  • Support implementation of network security best practices and alignment with security teams and policies.

Project & Process Excellence

  • Contribute across the full lifecycle of global network projects, including planning, coordination with procurement/logistics/resource planning, and ensuring documentation is complete and usable.
  • Review and tailor processes to ensure they are lean and fit-for-purpose; drive standardization and continuous improvement.

Qualifications

Required Qualifications

  • Significant progressive experience in enterprise network engineering within complex environments (engineering, operations, and troubleshooting).
  • Juniper experience in enterprise routing and switching environments.
  • Network automation experience delivering automated methods that reduce operational complexity and improve reliability.
  • Strong foundation in routing and switching concepts and enterprise troubleshooting; multi-vendor networking experience is beneficial.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills; documentation discipline and attention to detail.
  • Ability to work outside regular hours when necessary (change windows, critical incidents).

Preferred / Nice-to-Have

  • Experience with DNS and related enterprise network services (DHCP, IPAM).
  • Experience with security tooling and processes (e.g., segmentation, firewall policy alignment, SASE/SSE concepts, security event workflows).
  • Experience with Active Directory (AD) and identity services, and how identity integrates with network access controls (nice-to-have per your request).
  • Experience producing implementation documentation, runbooks, and improving operational processes.

Competencies

We also offer a broad range of outstanding benefits including a sabbatical program, tuition assistance and flexible work arrangements.

Department Overview

The Senior Director of Cyber Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) is accountable for leading and modernizing McDonald’s global third-party cyber risk management capability across a highly distributed, market-driven technology and supplier ecosystem. This role owns the design and execution of a scalable, intelligence-driven TPRM program that moves beyond traditional, questionnaire-centric approaches and delivers meaningful, defensible assurance over third-party cyber risk.

The role places particular emphasis on third-party providers operating within IDL market segments, where complex technology integrations, data flows, and operational dependencies introduce elevated cyber and business risk. The Senior Director develops deep understanding of these integrations, works closely with security architecture and technical SMEs to validate control effectiveness, and ensures that third-party solutions supporting markets do not introduce unacceptable systemic or concentration risk.

This leader partners closely with Global Supply Chain, Indirect Procurement, Legal, Privacy, ERM, and IDL Market CTOs to reduce fragmentation across markets by translating market-specific solution sets into standardized enterprise agreements, security configurations, and control expectations. A core mandate of the role is innovation: designing new, differentiated approaches to third-party assurance that leverage automation, technical validation, and continuous monitoring rather than relying solely on static questionnaires.

Responsibilities

Program Leadership & Modernization

  • Own and evolve McDonald’s global TPRM strategy and operating model, ensuring it is scalable, risk-based, and aligned to enterprise cyber risk governance expectations.
  • Transform TPRM from a primarily questionnaire-driven process into a modern program that blends survey efficiency with technical validation, continuous monitoring, and risk quantification.
  • Establish and operate the full third-party risk lifecycle, including onboarding, inherent risk tiering, due diligence, technical assessment, ongoing monitoring, reassessment, and secure offboarding.

Continuous Monitoring, Automation & Innovation

  • Implement continuous monitoring capabilities to provide near real-time visibility into third-party cyber posture, control degradation, and emerging risk signals.
  • Explore and deploy innovative approaches, including automation and AI-assisted techniques, for evidence collection, risk scoring, and exception management.
  • Continuously evaluate emerging tools, data sources, and assurance models to improve coverage, reduce friction, and increase signal quality beyond traditional questionnaires.

Governance, Reporting & Escalation

  • Maintain a centralized inventory of third-party engagements, risk tiers, and risk treatment decisions across the enterprise.
