About the Role: Security Consultant (vCISO)

Compensation: $500,000 – $550,000 MXN annually + performance-based bonus

This role blends:

Executive-level strategy and influence

Hands-on program development and execution

Client relationship leadership and growth

You will play a critical role in shaping both our clients’ security posture and the evolution of DYOPATH’s security advisory services .

What You’ll Own (Your Mission)

You will serve as the primary security advisor for client organizations, helping them understand risk, make informed decisions, and build resilient security programs aligned to business goals.

Key Responsibilities

Develop and lead enterprise security strategies, roadmaps, and governance frameworks

Translate technical risk into business and financial impact for executive and board-level audiences

Partner with IT, architecture, and business leaders to embed security into operations

What Success Looks Like

We believe clarity drives success. In this role, you will be expected to:

First 90 Days

Build strong relationships with client stakeholders and internal teams

Assess current security posture and identify key risks

6–12 Months

Deliver and execute a prioritized security roadmap

Establish a consistent executive reporting cadence

Demonstrate measurable improvement in security maturity and risk reduction

Position DYOPATH as a trusted long-term security partner

Initial focus will be on a key enterprise client engagement , with the opportunity to expand across multiple clients over time. You will play a pivotal role in both stabilizing and growing the client relationship. Over time, you may manage multiple client engagements , requiring strong prioritization and adaptability.

This role is intentionally designed to blend Strategic advisory (executive engagement, roadmap planning, governance) and Hands-on execution (assessments, program development, incident response planning). You’ll be expected to operate comfortably at both levels , delivering value in the boardroom and in the details.
