At Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska, we are a mission-driven organization dedicated to championing the health and well-being of our members and the communities we serve.

Our team is the power behind that promise. And, as the industry rapidly evolves and we seek ways to optimize business processes and customer experiences, there’s no greater time for forward-thinking professionals like you to join us in delivering on it! As a member of Team Blue, you’ll find purpose, opportunities and the support you need to build a meaningful career and make a powerful impact in our community.

The ideal candidate will live within driving distance of the Omaha, Nebraska office. This position allows remote flexibility but will have 1-2 days per week in the office.

If living in one of our approved states (Florida, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, and Texas) – this person may travel to our headquarters based on business needs.

You will work hands-on with emerging, automated penetration testing and attack simulation platforms, and with cloud, identity, endpoint, network, infrastructure, application, vulnerability management, and data-protection systems to validate security posture, identify misconfigurations and control failures, assess attack paths, and recommend practical remediation. You will also support GRC and continuous-control-monitoring capabilities, including automated evidence collection, control testing, remediation tracking, risk management processes, dashboards, metrics, and reporting that make cybersecurity risk easier to see, explain, and act on.

This is an opportunity for a cyber/GRC analyst who enjoys bridging technical exploration with governance impact. You will partner with cybersecurity, technology, risk, audit, and business teams to investigate issues, support audits and regulatory reviews, participate in approved validation activities such as configuration testing, vulnerability and exploitability validation, attack-path analysis, and purple-team exercises, and help turn findings into improvements that strengthen BCBSNE’s cyber resilience and protect the members and communities we serve.

To be considered for this position you must have:

• Bachelor's degree in Cybersecurity, Information Technology, Computer Science, Risk Management, or related field, or equivalent experience.
• Three to five years of experience in cybersecurity assurance, security operations, cybersecurity engineering, penetration testing, IT audit, GRC, risk management, or related experience.
• Experience performing cybersecurity control testing, technical assessments, configuration reviews, vulnerability validation, or security assessments.
• Working knowledge of cybersecurity frameworks such as NIST, CIS Controls, HITRUST, HIPAA, or ISO 27001.
• Experience interpreting technical evidence and translating cybersecurity findings into practical risk and remediation recommendations.
  

The strongest candidates will also have:

• Experience with GRC or continuous-control-monitoring processes platforms.
• Experience with penetration testing, red/purple teaming, attack-path analysis, or adversary-informed testing.
• Knowledge of MITRE ATT&CK and cloud, identity, network, and endpoint security concepts.
• Experience in healthcare, financial services, or another highly regulated industry.
• Relevant certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CISA, CRISC, CGRC, Security+, OSCP, or similar.
• Experience developing or improving cyber risk metrics, GRC dashboards, or executive-ready reporting.
• Comfort using automation, scripting, or workflow tools to streamline evidence collection, control testing, or remediation tracking.
• Ability to communicate technical cybersecurity issues clearly to both technical teams and non-technical stakeholders.
