  • Proficiency in backend programming (Python, Java, or Go) to build custom security tooling and automate manual testing environments.
  • Experience running security risk programs including risk assessments, treatment decisions, and cross-functional follow-through.
  • Strong understanding of security controls and risk treatment with technical fluency in identity, cloud infrastructure, logging, and vulnerability management.
  • Knowledge of control frameworks and standards such as NIST CSF, NIST 800-53, ISO 27001, SOC 2, and CIS.
  • Experience leading high-criticality security incident response, including technical investigation, root cause analysis, and executive-level communication.
