This position offers an energetic environment where your skills will directly impact our company's integrity and trustworthiness in the digital landscape.
Duties
- Monitor and analyze network traffic using SIEM tools like Splunk or SolarWinds to detect suspicious activity and potential threats.
- Implement and manage security controls such as firewalls (Cisco ASA), IDS/IPS systems, VPNs, and encryption protocols to protect data in transit and at rest.
- Conduct vulnerability assessments and penetration testing to identify weaknesses in network infrastructure, including LAN, WAN, and cloud architecture.
- Develop and enforce security policies aligned with NIST standards, ISO 27002 guidelines, and ITIL best practices for incident management and disaster recovery.
- Manage network support tasks including configuring routing protocols (OSPF, BGP), load balancing, high availability setups, and network installation procedures.
- Oversee system administration across various operating systems such as Windows, Linux (Debian, CentOS, Ubuntu), macOS, and Android/iOS environments.
- Lead incident response efforts by investigating security breaches using tools like Fiddler or SolarWinds, documenting findings, and coordinating remediation actions.
- Support cloud computing initiatives utilizing AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform, or VMware vSphere to ensure secure cloud infrastructure deployment.
- Maintain knowledge of network protocols (TCP/IP, DHCP, DNS), network architecture design principles, and open-source tools like Ansible or Terraform for automation.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to implement secure DevOps practices within SDLC frameworks while supporting network management tasks such as LDAP integration or PowerShell scripting.
Experience
- Proven experience in information security or network engineering roles with a strong understanding of computer networking concepts including LAN/WAN design and TCP/IP stack.
- Hands-on experience configuring and managing security devices such as Cisco ISE, Cisco routers/switches, Juniper devices, or Palo Alto firewalls.
- Familiarity with intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS), SIEM platforms like Splunk or SolarWinds, and incident management processes aligned with ITIL standards.
- Knowledge of encryption technologies including PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) implementations and SSL/TLS protocols for securing communications.
- Experience working within cloud environments (AWS or Azure), deploying secure cloud architecture solutions using PaaS/IaaS models.
- Strong scripting skills in Python or Bash for automation tasks related to system administration or network support.
- Ability to interpret network protocols such as EIGRP, OSPF, MPLS; implement VPNs (IPsec); configure load balancers; and support disaster recovery strategies.
- Certifications such as CISSP, CISA, CEH or Cisco CCNP Security are highly desirable to demonstrate expertise in cybersecurity fundamentals.
