  • Application Security: secure SDLC, code reviews, penetration testing, vulnerability management, and OWASP frameworks
  • Data Privacy & Protection: data classification, DLP strategies, privacy regulations (GDPR, CCPA), and data governance programs
  • Threat Intelligence & Hunting: adversary profiling, IOC analysis, proactive threat hunting, and intelligence-led defense
  • Network & Infrastructure Security: firewall and perimeter management, zero trust architecture, endpoint security, and network segmentation

What we're looking for

  • 3 to 5 years of hands-on experience in one or more cybersecurity domains
  • A solid understanding of the security landscape and the ability to translate technical risk into business language
  • Experience working in consulting, professional services, or a client-facing role is a plus
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
  • Relevant certifications are valued (e.g. CISSP, CISM, CISA, CCSP, CyberArk Defender, Azure/AWS Security, or equivalent)
  • A collaborative mindset and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, project-driven environment
