Partner with other security engineers, infrastructure teams, and application owners to embed security into the environment
Provide occasional tier-3 escalation support for incidents when needed (not primary duty)
What You Bring
Proven track record deploying and managing enterprise security tools in real-world environments
Deep hands-on experience with PAM and/or EDR solutions strongly preferred (e.g., CyberArk, BeyondTrust, Delinea, CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Microsoft Defender, Carbon Black, etc.)
Strong automation mindset-scripting (Python, PowerShell, Bash) and infrastructure-as-code experience is a big plus
Ability to operate independently, prioritize ruthlessly, and deliver results in a fast-moving environment
Adaptable and eager to work across a wide variety of security technologies
SANS GIAC certifications (GSEC, GCIA, GNFA, GCIH, GMON, etc.) strongly preferred
