Exposure Intelligence Analyst – Network & Perimeter (Firewalls / VPN / Segmentation)

Team: IT

Location: US

Commitment: Full-time

Workplace Type: remote

Accountabilities:

The Exposure Intelligence Analyst will serve as a technical expert responsible for assessing network and perimeter security risks, transforming security findings into actionable insights, and partnering with engineering teams to drive meaningful improvements.

• Analyze and prioritize security exposure data, translating technical findings into clear risk narratives and remediation recommendations.
• Identify complex attack paths involving network controls, access points, trust boundaries, and infrastructure configurations.
• Provide actionable intelligence to remediation teams and validate resolution of identified security issues when possible.
• Own subject matter expertise for network exposure areas, including firewalls, access control lists (ACLs), segmentation, VPNs, routing, load balancers, SD-WAN, and ingress/egress controls.
• Identify systemic security weaknesses such as overly permissive access rules, exposed services, weak segmentation, and insecure remote access configurations.
• Collaborate closely with network engineering teams to implement sustainable security improvements and prevent recurring issues.
• Apply continuous threat exposure management principles to improve enterprise security posture and reduce attack feasibility.
• Use security telemetry, network data, and technical analysis to support risk-based decision-making.
• Contribute to improving processes, automation, and analytical capabilities within the exposure management function.

Requirements:

The ideal candidate is a cybersecurity professional with strong network security expertise, analytical capabilities, and the ability to communicate technical risks effectively across teams.

• 3+ years of experience in network security, network engineering, security operations, or exposure management.
• Strong understanding of networking concepts, including routing, firewalls, VPN technologies, segmentation strategies, and access controls.
• Ability to evaluate technical vulnerabilities and configuration issues, translating them into business risk and practical remediation guidance.
• Experience analyzing network traffic, telemetry data, DNS/proxy logs, firewall rules, or segmentation architectures is preferred.
• Understanding of attacker techniques related to lateral movement, perimeter exploitation, and network-based threats.
• Experience with automation and scripting tools such as Python, KQL, or equivalent technologies is a plus.
• Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to investigate complex security challenges.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to partner effectively with technical stakeholders.
• Knowledge of identity management, access management, endpoint security, automation, and scripting concepts is beneficial.

Benefits:

• Competitive annual compensation range of $100,000 - $170,500, depending on experience and qualifications.
• Fully remote work opportunity with a comprehensive technology setup, including laptop, monitors, headset, keyboard, and mouse.
• Monthly connectivity reimbursement to support remote work expenses.
• Access to a supportive environment focused on innovation, professional growth, and meaningful cybersecurity impact.
• Opportunity to contribute to enterprise-wide security improvements and advanced exposure management initiatives.
• Comprehensive benefits package and employee support programs.
• Dedicated resources and equipment to enable successful remote collaboration.
