With more than 200 datacenters in 32 countries and millions of servers, our mission is to be the most reliable, rigorous, and trusted physical security provider of hyperscale cloud infrastructure.

As the sole area-based COF security representative, this position will also facilitate security compliance initiatives to include assurance reviews and audits.

In alignment with our Microsoft values, we are committed to cultivating an inclusive work environment for all employees to positively impact our culture every day.

  • Continuously improve the efficiency and maturity of the overall physical security program at Microsoft datacenters, seeking data and recommending strategies and ideas to reduce churn, optimizing resources, implement creative solutions to problems, scale, automate and simplify process whenever possible.
  • Demonstrate and promote a Microsoft culture within the workplace that supports the ability to attract, develop and retain talent; deliver results through teamwork; role model our Microsoft values with a passion for diversity and inclusion.
  • Partner with local vendor guard force management to drive a training objective of providing enhanced industry leading and ‘certified’ dedicated Datacenter Security Protection Professionals (ex: Corporate/ASIS/DCPRO certifications).

Datacenter Security Leadership:

  • Function as a physical security subject matter expert who can operate on their own and represent the overall (multi-disciplinary) regional physical security team.
  • Partner and collaborate effectively with regional peers, leaders and stakeholders, focused on maintaining a One Team, One Microsoft environment.
  • As the area COF security representative, ensure the operations team and all related security vendors successfully represent Microsoft during internal, external and customer audits. This may include representing other COF peer teams like Environmental Health and Safety.
  • Provide a holistic security program (end-to-end) approach to oversight, providing integrated support to regional evaluation, design, project management and operational leadership resources from conception to decommissioning.
  • Facilitate and support field site visits to assess the physical security posture and site safety; collaborate with peer colleagues at other datacenters to review, assess and share “best practices;” document issues identified during those visits requiring improvement; and follow through on recommendations/actions to resolution.
  • Receive escalations/notifications of physical security and business impacting events and appropriately triage, ensure that regional leadership is kept informed through regular communication as appropriate and that the necessary personnel for managing an incident respond effectively.
  • Direct, in-person subject matter expert engagements with security integrators supporting the physical security system maintenance and trouble shooting.

  • Promote an environment of awareness and continuous learning to mitigate insider threat, promoting empowerment of the work force to be force multipliers in an “all’ organization holistic mitigation strategy.
  • Focus policies, procedures, and training to continually enhance Microsoft’s prevention, deterrence, and advanced detection capability to create a program “differentiator” from our competitors.
