Responsibilities

  • ● Support containment, recovery, and post-incident remediation by identifying root causes and implementing technical fixes that reduce recurrence.
  • ● Partner with product, engineering, and infrastructure teams to embed security within existing practices.
  • ● Conduct security and risk assessments of applications, platforms, and infrastructure, including threat modeling and targeted technical review.
  • ● Apply security principles to protect systems and data, ensuring availability, authentication, authorization, confidentiality, and integrity.
  • ● Create technical documentation outlining remediation guidance and security best practices.
  • ● Develop or implement tools to support detection, prevention and analysis of security threats.
  • ● 4-8years of experience in security engineering or adjacent engineering roles. (e.g., networking, infrastructure, cloud, or application development.)
  • ● Experience supporting incident response or post incident remediation.
  • ● Experience with cloud platforms, CI/CD pipelines, containerization, and Kubernetes.
  • ● Experience using automation and AI to reduce mean time to remediation (MTTR).
  • ● Familiarity with Agile development environments.
  • ● Foundational understanding of cybersecurity frameworks and regulations and how they inform risk based remediation decisions. (e.g., NIST CSF, NIST 800-series, ISO 27001, PCI.)
  • ● Certifications are a plus but not required; hands on experience is valued most. (e.g., CISSP, CISM, OSCP, SANS, cloud security certifications.)
  • ● Ability to work independently or as part of a team while operating effectively in ambiguous, fast moving environments.
  • ● Strong problem solving skills with attention to detail and a proactive mindset.
  • ● Strong interpersonal and communication skills with the ability to work effectively across engineering, security, and business teams; and explain technical remediation steps to non-technical stakeholders.
  • ● Ability to collaborate effectively and, with experience, influence remediation outcomes across federated teams.
  • ● Experience conducting security reviews and translating findings into actionable engineering guidance.
  • ● Experience applying and maintaining secure configurations across systems, networks, or applications.
  • ● Ability to leverage AI tools to accelerate triage, remediation recommendations, and incident response, with appropriate human review and judgement.
  • ● Knowledge of vulnerability management, common attack patterns, and mitigation techniques. (e.g., OWASP Top 10, MITRE ATT&CK.)
