    Come Forge the Future of Machine Identity Security for Operational Technology & Industrial Control Systems Where: Tysons, VA (Hybrid) Supporting: Our CTO At Corsha we're not just selling software; we're fundamentally reshaping how the most critical industrial and operational technology (OT) systems are secured. We're a cyber startup in the DC area, driven by a mission to bring trust, resilience, and identity to the operational systems that power our world - from factories to power grids. We're building the future of machine identity security, and we need a dynamic technical evangelist to join our front lines. Tired of the Status Quo? Ready to Secure the Unseen? Here's your Opportunity: If you're an engineer who thrives on solving hard problems, isn't afraid to get your hands dirty with industrial control systems and sees the immense potential of cybersecurity in unconventional environments, then read on. We move fast, we build for impact, and we need a security visionary to help us secure the machines that matter most. Your Mission: Secure the Industrial Edge We're looking for an OT Security Engineer to be a foundational engineer for our Machine Identity Platform (mIDP), specifically tailored for the unique and challenging landscape of OT systems. Your mission: implement, integrate, and defend the security infrastructure that underpins our cutting-edge solutions, with a heavy emphasis on industrial control systems and OT networks. This isn't just about keeping the lights on. It's about building security architectures that are inherently secure, highly available, and resilient against the most sophisticated threats, often in environments where traditional IT paradigms simply don't apply. You'll be bridging the gap between cutting-edge cybersecurity technologies and the operational realities of factories, power plants, and critical infrastructure. What You'll Be Forging: Architect and Implement OT Security Solutions: Design, deploy, and manage secure architectures for our mIDP, specifically tailored for OT environments. This includes network segmentation, routing, switching, firewall configurations, and intrusion detection systems. ICS/OT System Integration: Be the subject matter expert for integrating our mIDP with industrial control systems. This involves understanding and working with common industrial protocols (Modbus, OPC UA) and architectures (e.g., Purdue Model). Machine Identity Integration: Collaborate closely with our product and engineering teams to integrate security configurations with our mIDP, ensuring seamless and secure authentication and authorization for OT devices and applications. OT Network Hardening: Implement and enforce robust security best practices, including vulnerability management and access control for OT networks. Troubleshooting and Optimization: Proactively monitor, troubleshoot, and resolve complex security issues across ICS and OT environments. Identify and implement optimizations to enhance system performance, reliability, and security. Automation and Tooling: Develop and implement automation scripts and tools (e.g., Python, Ansible) to streamline provisioning, configuration management, and operational tasks. 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. Bonus Points For: Experience with specific machine identity solutions (PKI, certificates, secrets management). Hands-on experience with Kubernetes Knowledge of software-defined networking (SDN) solutions. Relevant industry certifications (e.g., CISSP, GICSP, CISM). Experience in a fast-paced startup environment. Why Forge your Path with Corsha? Real-World Impact: Your work won't just sit on a server; it will actively defend the critical operational systems that underpin our society. This is an opportunity to make a tangible, immediate difference. Bleeding Edge: Be at the forefront of securing the intersection of cybersecurity, machine identity, and OT. We're defining the future, not just following trends. Growth & Ownership: This is a startup - your contributions will directly shape our product, our culture, and our success. You'll work with incredible people that care and have impact. Culture of Innovation: Join a team of brilliant, passionate engineers dedicated to solving the hardest problems.
