About the Role
Veeam is seeking a Head of National Security Policy to serve as the senior-most technical authority for Veeam's full portfolio of government-facing products. This leader will define the technical strategy for how Veeam's data resilience and data security platforms — including Securiti AI's federal offering — are architected, deployed, and certified within U.S. government environments. The role carries a heavy near-term focus on Securiti AI Federal, where this person will work with engineering to drive the technical roadmap, integration architecture, and compliance posture required for the platform to operate inside classified and controlled federal networks.
This is a hybrid role: equal parts deep technical credibility with government network architectures and AI system deployment, and direct engagement with the engineering teams building for this market. The Head of National Security Policy reports directly to Veeam's corporate CTO and works in daily collaboration with Veeam's government strategy, sales, and solutions engineering leadership to align product direction with mission needs.
What You Will Do
Government Network & Compliance Strategy
- Serve as Veeam's principal technical authority on U.S. government network architectures, including DoD, IC, and civilian agency environments, air-gapped and classified networks, and cross-domain solutions.
- Work with engineering on the technical strategy and execution for FedRAMP High, DoD IL5, and IL6 authorization across Veeam's public sector product lines, partnering with compliance, security, and ATO stakeholders to reach and sustain accreditation.
- Translate evolving federal compliance frameworks (FedRAMP, DoD SRG, NIST 800-53, CMMC, StateRAMP) into concrete architecture and engineering requirements.
- Represent Veeam in agency technical reviews, security assessments, and authorizing official (AO) engagements as the senior technical sponsor.
AI Deployment & Integration, with a Focus on Securiti AI Federal
- Drive the technical strategy for deploying AI and data-security capabilities — including Securiti AI's federal product line — inside government network boundaries, covering model hosting, data classification, data residency, and secure integration patterns.
- Help define the architecture for how Securiti AI Federal integrates
