  • Security engineering across endpoint, network, gateway and related technologies
  • Vulnerability management tooling, integration and continuous improvement
  • Support incident response activities using enterprise tooling
  • Managing data ingestion, building and optimizing Search  queries, developing custom dashboards and alerts for monitoring, and ensuring system reliability, security, and scalability across the enterprise
  • Provide trusted security engineering advice to internal stakeholders
  • Develop and uplift security operations system requirements
  • Participate in change review and approvals
  • Build and maintain stakeholder relationships across internal teams and external partners

What You’ll Bring to Make an Impact

  • EDR / Device Control / Application Control (e.g. Trellix, Carbon Black)
  • SIEM / SOAR platforms (e.g. Splunk)
  • Vulnerability management solutions
  • Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
  • Identity & Access Management (IAM)
  • Privileged Access Management (e.g. CyberArk, BeyondTrust)
  • Hardware Security Modules (HSM)

You don’t need experience across all technologies, but strong capability across several of these areas is important.

We’re also looking for individuals who:

  • Have a strong engineering mindset and problem-solving approach
  • Can operate independently and collaboratively
  • Are passionate about cyber security and continuous improvement
  • Are motivated to support capability uplift and mentor junior team members
