  • Manage and maintain Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) tools to identify misconfigurations in cloud resources.
  • Develop and improve KPIs, metrics, and trending reports for vulnerability management functions.
  • Act as a subject matter expert for various platforms including Microsoft, Linux, Networking, Databases, and Cloud environments.

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years of vulnerability management experience working with tools such as Qualys, InsightVM/Rapid7, Wiz, or Nessus.
  • Bachelor's and/or Master's Degree in Information Security, Engineering, or Computer Science (preferred).
  • Advanced knowledge of major cloud platforms, including common misconfigurations and remediation techniques.
  • Experience managing and using Cloud Security Posture Management tools such as Wiz, XPanse, Prisma, Laceworks, or Orca.
  • Experience at a financial services/technology company or in a regulated industry.
  • Ability to communicate with both technical and non-technical stakeholders at all levels of the organization.
