What you will do

• Design, implement, configure, test, optimize, and govern complex security controls across endpoint, identity, network, cloud, email, application, data, and manufacturing environments.
• Embed security by design into complex projects, architecture decisions, integrations, and major technology changes.
• Conduct security architecture reviews, technical risk assessments, vulnerability reviews, and third-party security assessments, then drive remediation to verified closure.
• Define secure configuration baselines, technical standards, procedures, evidence, health indicators, dashboards, and metrics to identify control gaps and drift.
• Collaborate with Security Operations on detection engineering, incident investigations, logging, containment, and durable technical improvements.
• Apply generative and agentic AI, APIs, scripting, orchestration, and workflow automation with human oversight, validation, logging, access controls, testing, and rollback mechanisms.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Information Security, Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 5–7+ years of progressively responsible experience in cybersecurity engineering, infrastructure security, cloud security, systems engineering, or a related technical role, including complex problems across multiple systems or security domains.
• Advanced knowledge of security architecture and controls across identity and access, endpoints, networks, cloud platforms, operating systems, applications, data protection, and manufacturing or OT environments.
• Independent experience with security architecture reviews, technical risk assessments, vulnerability analysis, hardening, control implementation, and remediation with limited guidance.
• Ability to translate ambiguous business, risk, and compliance requirements into scalable technical controls, documentation, and risk-based recommendations.
• Hands-on experience with EDR, PAM, and SIEM technologies, plus security telemetry, detection logic, dashboards, control-health metrics, and evidence-based testing.
• Practical understanding of generative AI and agentic AI, including secure usage, output validation, prompt injection, data leakage, excessive access, model misuse, and AI integration risks.
• Strong analytical and creative problem-solving skills, sound technical judgment, attention to detail, and ability to resolve highly complex or ambiguous assignments independently.

Nice to have

• Experience in a global manufacturing or industrial environment, including OT/IT segmentation, operational reliability, and production security considerations.
• Hands-on exposure to Microsoft security technologies such as Entra ID, Defender, Intune, Purview, or comparable platforms.
• Familiarity with cloud security, zero trust, secure configuration frameworks, vulnerability management, third-party risk, and secure software or product development practices.
• Proficiency in scripting and automation with PowerShell, Python, REST APIs, orchestration, or workflow automation, including reusable solutions and integrations.

Culture & Benefits

• Work in a collaborative environment guided by customer focus, ownership, technical leadership, and continuous improvement.
• Partner across IT, Security, Compliance, Engineering, vendors, and business teams while balancing security, usability, manufacturing continuity, and business outcomes.
• Employee growth and development opportunities, flexible work arrangements, competitive compensation and benefits, and performance-based incentives.
• Inclusive equal-opportunity workplace focused on employee contribution and community impact.
