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, you will identify root causes, implement technical fixes, and design repeatable remediation patterns to recover from incidents and remediate vulnerabilities. You will partner with product and infrastructure teams to embed security into existing practices and conduct risk assessments using threat modeling. Key technologies include Python, Ansible, Terraform, IBM Cloud, AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes. You will also utilize EDR, NGFW, IDS, SIEM, and SOAR platforms. The role solves the business problem of ensuring durable, scalable security improvements while maintaining system availability, authentication, and integrity across diverse technical domains.

What you'll do

  • Identify root causes of security incidents and implement technical fixes to reduce recurrence.
  • Partner with engineering teams to embed security practices into existing product and infrastructure workflows.
  • Conduct security risk assessments and threat modeling for applications, platforms, and infrastructure.
  • Apply security principles to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, availability, and authorization of systems and data.
  • Create technical documentation outlining remediation guidance and security best practices.
  • Develop and implement tools to support the detection, prevention, and analysis of security threats.
  • Leverage AI tools to accelerate triage, remediation recommendations, and incident response efforts.

What we're looking for

  • Ability to work independently or in a team within ambiguous, fast-moving environments.
  • Strong problem-solving skills with attention to detail and a proactive mindset.
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills to explain technical remediation to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Experience conducting security reviews and translating findings into actionable engineering guidance.
  • Experience applying and maintaining secure configurations across systems, networks, or applications.
  • Ability to leverage AI tools to accelerate triage, remediation recommendations, and incident response.
  • Knowledge of vulnerability management, common attack patterns, and mitigation techniques like OWASP Top 10 or MITRE ATT&CK.
  • Bachelor's Degree.
