Yeah, the director of our network security team looks like a swamp wizard.
Every "rising" company has a few people like this, a few key players who know the field or have such niche expertise that they get given the largest leeway and most room to do whatever they want, as long as the results keep coming in.
The catch here is that the more successful the company gets, the more power and flexibility they have to get the exact kind of employee they want. So if you dream of being in this position, be careful and don't let it go to your head just because you were free to join the meeting 10 minutes late in your pajamas in the early days.
I would just be happy to not have to delete 25 IT email notifications about downtimes and fixes every other day. Like WTF do I even have to care about that shit? Just make my work email actually functional vs a dumpster of shit dumped on me.
