Chief Technology Officer

We are Secure Community Network (SCN), a nonprofit 501(c)(3) serving as the official safety and security organization of the Jewish community in North America. Here at SCN, we deeply value the team of people that work diligently to commit their lives to action for a better tomorrow and we are excited to add a Chief Technology Officer to our organization.

The Chief Technology Officer (CTO) serves as the Secure Community Network's principal technology executive, responsible for the strategy, architecture, and operational integrity of the organization's technology ecosystem in direct support of SCN's mission, translating operational and security priorities into a coherent technology roadmap. Reporting to the National Director/CEO and serving as a member of the executive team, the CTO is responsible for the organization's technology systems and infrastructure, including the design, deployment, and continuous evolution of SCN's threat intelligence and open-source information collection systems, to include its 24/7 National Command Center and growing suite of artificial intelligence-enabled analytic tools. The CTO ensures secure, reliable, and scalable systems for a workforce distributed across the country, including safeguarding the confidentiality and integrity of sensitive threat and law-enforcement-related information. This role is critical in building the internal technology capability required to support SCN's growth as the national safety and security organization for the Jewish community.

This role may be based anywhere in the US. Our main office is located in Chicago, so local candidates would work out of our office in a hybrid model, and candidates based elsewhere would regularly travel to Chicago as needed.
