We are looking for a Cybersecurity Engineer to join our Corporate IT Team in NYC / NJ!

ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES:

We're looking for a Cybersecurity Engineer (not an Analyst) who can both build our security infrastructure and operate it day-to-day. This isn't a pure admin role or a pure analyst role — it's both. You'll architect and install enterprise-grade, on-prem security platforms for dual-datacenter active/active deployments. You'll then turn around and use those same tools operationally — writing detection logic, creating dashboards, building SOAR playbooks, and triaging what you built.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

You'll be primarily blue team — defending, detecting, and running the platforms you build. But if you have offensive security chops, this is a chance to participate and help us with red team functions as well.

  • Architect and implement enterprise security platforms on-prem and in the cloud: CyberArk PAS (Vault, CPM, PSM, PVWA), Splunk Enterprise/ES (indexers, search heads, clustering, HA/DR), Tenable, SOAR, OKTA/SAML
  • Design for scale: capacity planning, redundancy, role-based access control, and integration with AD, applications, and infrastructure
  • Then operate what you build: custom dashboards, correlation rules, detection tuning, automated playbooks
  • Own incident response and threat hunting using your own tooling — you're the analyst, not just the platform owner
  • Support compliance (SOC 2, PCI DSS, NIST 800-53) with the audit trails and reporting your architecture produces

DESIRED QUALIFICATIONS:

  • 4+ years securing enterprise environments, with real hands-on time both building (installs, architecture, HA/DR design) and using (detection, dashboards, response) security platforms — not just one or the other
  • Deep proficiency in at least two of: CyberArk, Splunk Enterprise/ES, Tenable, SOAR (Phantom/Demisto/Resilient)
  • Strong Linux and Windows administration; scripting in Python/Bash/PowerShell for automation and integrations
  • Working knowledge of cloud security platforms (AWS Security Hub, Azure Security Center)
  • Comfortable owning something end-to-end: design it, deploy it, defend with it
  • Bonus: offensive security background (Nmap, Burp, Metasploit, pentest/ethical hacking experience) — not required, but a strong plus given the red team opportunity above

ADDITIONAL SKILLS - NICE TO HAVE:

  • CISSP
  • GCIH
  • CEH,
  • CySA+, or vendor certs (CyberArk Defender/Sentry, Splunk Certified Admin/Architect)

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
