  • Participate in IT / security projects such as migrations, new platform deployments, and process modernization; recommend improvements to strengthen security controls and automation.
  • Stay current with threat intelligence, security trends, and emerging technologies.
  • On‑Call rotational support as required.
  • Perform other duties as assigned.
  • Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related field is required, equivalent experience may be considered.
  • 4‑6 years in information security or IT security roles is required; 3+ years preferred for IT infrastructure, systems administration, networking, or cybersecurity is preferred.
  • Experience working in enterprise IT environments (Active Directory / Azure AD, DHCP / DNS, Windows Server, virtualization, and cloud concepts) is required.
  • Strong troubleshooting skills across systems, networks, and endpoints is required.
  • Hands‑on experience with Microsoft Purview, Crowdstrike, and SharePoint security administration is required.
  • Knowledge of endpoint security tools, antivirus / EDR, patch management, MFA / SSO platforms, and email protection is required.
  • Familiarity with SIEM tools, DLP solutions, and identity management is required.
  • Experience with firewalls, switches, and secure network configurations is required.
  • Understanding of compliance frameworks and data protection regulations is required.
  • Industry‑recognized certifications such as Security+, CISSP, CySA+, CCNA, MS‑900 / SC‑900, AZ‑500, or similar is required.
