Documentation and Knowledge Sharing: Create comprehensive documentation, runbooks, and contribute to internal knowledge sharing to ensure maintainability and scalability of our infrastructure.
Stay Ahead of the Curve: Continuously research and evaluate new cybersecurity technologies, security trends, and best practices, particularly as they relate to OT and industrial control systems.
Collaborate and Mentor: Work closely with cross-functional teams (software engineers, security analysts, product managers) and provide mentorship to junior team members.
What You'll Bring:
5+ years of intense experience in OT security or a related role, with a proven track record in complex, high-performance, and high-stakes environments.
Deep, demonstrable expertise in industrial control systems and OT environments. You've implemented security products and solutions in real-world ICS/OT environments.
Strong proficiency in network security principles: Firewalls, VPNs, intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS), network access control (NAC), and secure communication protocols.
Extensive hands-on experience with OT network architectures and protocols. You're comfortable with physical hardware and understand the nuances of industrial networks.
Rock solid understanding of cybersecurity principles: vulnerability management, threat modeling, and incident response.
Empathy for OT/ICS environments: You totally get the unique security challenges of Operational Technology, and understand common industrial protocols (Modbus, OPC UA) and architectures (e.g., Purdue Model). This isn't just a "nice-to-have"; it's critical.
Proficiency in scripting and automation: Python, Ansible, or similar languages for automating security provisioning and operations.
A relentless problem-solver: You thrive on diagnosing and resolving intricate security issues under pressure, with an unwavering focus on root cause analysis.
Exceptional communication and collaboration skills: You can articulate complex technical concepts clearly and work seamlessly with cross-functional teams.
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
Self-starter with an insatiable curiosity: You're eager to learn, adapt, and drive solutions in a rapidly evolving, high-impact startup environment.
