• Integrate solutions with existing infrastructure, tools, and services across Linux, Windows, and macOS environments.

 

Enablement & Collaboration

• Collaborate with stakeholders to translate operational and security needs into scalable technical solutions.
• Produce clear documentation and operational runbooks to support adoption and long-term maintainability.

 

Required Skills & Experience

• Senior-level experience in cybersecurity, with strong expertise in firewalls, network security, and incident troubleshooting.
• Strong background in automation and software engineering, including proficiency in Python (Django) and Ruby on Rails.
• Solid understanding of SDLC best practices, including version control (git and mecurial), testing, and deployment strategies.
• Advanced Linux system administration skills; ability to integrate with Windows and macOS environments when required.
• Strong troubleshooting skills across infrastructure, network, and application layers.
• Hands-on experience with virtualization and container technologies.

• Motivated and curious, with a continuous learning attitude and interest in new technologies.
• Open-minded and adaptable when working with evolving requirements and diverse stakeholders.
• Patient and methodical, especially when troubleshooting complex systems and security issues.
• Autonomous, able to take ownership of tasks and drive solutions end-to-end.
