Leo Infrastructure & IP Security is seeking a candidate to develop and own Leo's IP hardware asset assurance program - the independent audit, reconciliation, and accountability function that ensures every piece of Leo IP hardware is accounted for. This role is critical to protecting intellectual property (IP) by establishing a clean separation of duties, maturing the reconciliation program as Leo scales, and converting accountability data into enforceable controls.
The ideal candidate will bring deep expertise in asset assurance, inventory reconciliation, or audit program management within a high-security technology or manufacturing environment. This role serves as the authority on Leo's IP hardware accountability posture (reconciliation, loss trends, and enforcement-control effectiveness).
Key job responsibilities
• Develop, own, and mature Leo's IP hardware asset assurance
• Execute on the reconciliation methodology, cadence, sampling criteria, and accountability standards for hardware asset system-of-record data
• Serve as the authority on IP hardware accountability posture, translating reconciliation data into risk narratives and recommendations for leadership
• Own verification of enforcement controls; tracker-association gating, assignment caps, and physical-verification requirements for Critical/High-tier hardware, and validate they hold as asset tracking tooling capabilities come online
• Own loss-trend and non-engagement analytics (device loss rate, non-response rate, unrecovered device aging); identify systemic drivers and recommend structural fixes rather than one-off corrections
• Partner with the Security Tooling / MIRA owner to define reconciliation, gating, and accountability requirements built into the system of record
• Drive accountability for unresolved record-reality gaps through structured escalation to leadership with documented risk exposure
• Route reconciliation findings into the unified findings register owned by the Audit & Compliance Manager; this role owns the reconciliation methodology and analytics but not the register
• Feed risk-prioritized reconciliation findings into Investigations to ensure casework is prioritized by verified accountability risk
• Establish and maintain SOPs for reconciliation, discrepancy classification, and closure verification
• Produce recurring accountability and reconciliation reporting for business reviews, including trend direction, risk concentration, and enforcement-control effectiveness
• Partner with the Physical Security Manager and Audit & Compliance Manager to ensure accountability gaps inform design standards and audit strategy
A day in the life
You review reconciliation runs, comparing inventory tracking system records against physical reality, and triage the record-reality gaps that surface, prioritizing anything tied to Critical/High-tier hardware. You verify enforcement controls are holding (tracker-association gating, assignment caps, physical-verification requirements) and work with the tooling owner to define new reconciliation and gating requirements as capabilities come online. You dig into loss-trend and non-engagement analytics to identify systemic drivers behind device loss and non-response, then route risk-prioritized findings into the unified findings register and to Investigations. You partner with the Audit & Compliance Manager and Physical Security Manager to ensure accountability gaps inform audit strategy and design standards, and escalate unresolved gaps to leadership with documented risk exposure. You balance hands-on reconciliation with program maturation, refining SOPs, defending the separation of duties, and preparing accountability posture reporting for business reviews. Every day varies, but the mission stays fixed: every piece of Leo IP hardware has a confirmed location and a responsible party.
