Overview of the Role

We are seeking a detail‑oriented Senior Analyst – IT Network Security to lead the deployment, configuration, and ongoing management of our Network Security Policy Management (NSPM) solution (e.g., Tufin, Algosec, Firemon). The successful candidate will ensure our network security controls are efficient, compliant, and aligned with business and regulatory requirements. This role will act as the subject‑matter expert (SME) for NSPM and support broader network security operations. Knowledge of microsegmentation solutions (e.g., Illumio, Guardicore) is a plus.

How You Will Make Contributions That Matter

NSPM Deployment & Management, including Operations

• Lead the design, implementation, and optimization of the organization’s NSPM platform (Tufin or equivalent). Develop and maintain network security policies, rule bases, and workflows within the NSPM solution.
• Integrate NSPM with firewalls, routers, switches, and cloud platforms to achieve centralized visibility and control. Expertise in Cisco FTD / FMC and Palo Alto / Panorama is very important.
• Manage daily NSPM operations : policy reviews, firewall rule cleanups, access requests, and rule lifecycle management. Troubleshoot NSPM‑related issues and manage vendor performance.
• Liaise with vendors and partners for product upgrades, patches, and enhancements.
• Ensure all firewall and network security policies align with internal security standards, industry best practices, and regulatory frameworks (e.g., NIST, ISO 27001).
• Conduct periodic policy audits and risk assessments using NSPM reports.
• Provide recommendations for policy optimization, segmentation, and least‑privilege access.
