VP, Information Technology & Security

Boingo is looking for a senior technology leader to unify corporate IT operations and Information Security under one executive function within Engineering. This is a critical leadership role for a company that operates secure, high-performance networks in airports, transit hubs, military bases, stadiums, and commercial properties — and that depends on a modern, compliant, and automated corporate technology foundation to support that mission.

Beyond internal corporate IT and security, Boingo is also building and delivering security products and services for the venues where we operate. Across military installations, airports, transit systems, stadiums, and other large-scale environments, security is becoming an essential part of the DAS, private network, and Wi-Fi solutions we design, deploy, and manage. Boingo is actively developing a venue-focused security offering, supported by the product team and delivered in close partnership with Security, Engineering, and Network Operations. This leader will help ensure our internal security organization is strong enough to support both enterprise compliance and this growing customer-facing security business.

In this role, you’ll provide strategic direction to the teams that keep employees productive and the teams that keep Boingo secure, including the Security Compliance, GRC, Cybersecurity, and Corporate IT.  You’ll collaborate with Engineering, Network Operations, Product, Legal, HR, Finance, and Operations.

You should have deep experience operating mixed enterprise environments spanning Microsoft 365 / Entra ID, Google Workspace, and Mac and Windows endpoints, while building and maturing programs aligned to NIST, GRC, and SOC 2. The ideal candidate understands how to scale security beyond the corporate perimeter — supporting secure network deployments and security product offerings in complex, multi-tenant venue environments. You thrive at the intersection of security, compliance, product delivery, and practical IT operations, and know how to build high-performing teams that automate instead of relying on manual ticket-driven workflows.
