- Partner with IT, DevOps, and application teams to coordinate and track the timely remediation of validated threats, ensuring alignment with security policies and service level agreements.
- Develop and maintain dashboards, metrics, and executive reports to communicate to both technical and non-technical stakeholders exposure trends, remediation progress, and overall risk posture.
- Stay current with emerging threats, vulnerability trends, and Continuous Threat Exposure Management best practices, continuously refining detection and response strategies to improve organizational resilience.
What You Need to Succeed
- Bachelor’s degree in computer science or information security, or an equivalent combination of education and work experience.
- Relevant certifications (e.g., CISSP, CEH, Security+, GIAC) preferred.
- 5+ years of cybersecurity, threat and vulnerability management, threat analysis, or other relevant IT experience required.
- Strong understanding of cybersecurity frameworks (e.g., MITRE ATT&CK, NIST CSF, ISO 27001).
- Technical proficiency across operating systems (Windows, Linux), cloud platforms (AWS, Azure), and other environments.
- Experience with vulnerability scanning, asset discovery, and threat validation tools.
- Experience with ticketing platforms like ServiceNow or Jira to manage and track remediation workflows.
- Excellent analytical, communication, and collaboration skills.
- Strong organization, planning, and project management skills; ability to prioritize tasks for yourself and a team to meet requirements and deadlines.
- Ability to work with different functional groups and levels of employees to effectively and professionally achieve results.
- Strong leadership skills; ability to drive and motivate a team to achieve results.
