TL;DR · Cybersecurity Remediation Engineer

The Cybersecurity Remediation Engineer joins the CISO Remediation Team within the Cyber Defense organization to drive the technical resolution of security risks across the enterprise. Working at the intersection of security operations, engineering, and architecture, this individual will identify root causes for incidents, remediate vulnerabilities, and develop durable, scalable security improvements. The role involves conducting risk assessments, creating technical documentation, and building tools to enhance detection and prevention. Candidates should possess expertise in areas such as Python, Ansible, Terraform, or infrastructure as code; cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, or GCP; operating systems including Linux and Windows; and networking technologies like SDN. Additionally, the role requires proficiency with EDR, NGFW, IDS, SIEM, and SOAR tools to protect system integrity while leveraging AI to accelerate triage and response efforts across various technical domains.

What you'll do

  • Identify root causes of security incidents and implement technical fixes to prevent recurrence.
  • Partner with engineering teams to embed security practices into existing infrastructure and products.
  • Conduct security risk assessments, threat modeling, and technical reviews of applications and platforms.
  • Develop and implement tools to support the detection, prevention, and analysis of threats.
  • Create technical documentation for remediation guidance and security best practices.
  • Maintain secure configurations across systems, networks, and cloud environments.
  • Leverage AI tools to accelerate triage, remediation recommendations, and incident response.

What we're looking for

  • Experience conducting security reviews and translating findings into actionable engineering guidance.
  • Experience applying and maintaining secure configurations across systems, networks, or applications.
  • Knowledge of vulnerability management, common attack patterns, and mitigation techniques like OWASP Top 10 and MITRE ATT&CK.
  • Ability to leverage AI tools to accelerate triage, remediation recommendations, and incident response.
  • Strong communication skills to explain technical remediation steps to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Approximately 4-8 years of experience in security engineering or adjacent engineering roles (preferred).
  • Experience with cloud platforms, CI/CD pipelines, containerization, Kubernetes, and automation tools (preferred).
  • Bachelor's Degree.
