About The Position

At MJH Life Sciences, we are seeking a Cybersecurity Engineer to work closely with the Director of Information Technology and Compliance in protecting the organization's systems, applications, and data from evolving threats. This role blends hands-on security engineering with governance, risk, and compliance responsibilities — leveraging AI-assisted tools and models to identify and prioritize vulnerabilities, partnering with product engineering teams to keep products secure, and ensuring operations and procedures meet government and industry compliance standards. This is an on-site role requiring three days per week in the office.

Requirements

Demonstrated experience with AI models and AI-assisted security tools applied to vulnerability identification, threat analysis, triage, and remediation support — you use AI proactively to detect and close gaps, not reactively after incidents occur
Working knowledge of vulnerability management and remediation, including direct collaboration with product and engineering teams on fixes
Familiarity with core IT security frameworks including ISO 27001, NIST, and CIS
Fundamental knowledge of IT concepts and technologies including DNS, DHCP, RMM, MDM, SIEM, AD/DC, BCDR, SSO, IAM, and DLP
Experience supporting IT and security audits, compliance frameworks, and GRC-related activities including ISMS and PIMS policy development
Ability to explain technical concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders — you translate jargon into language that decision-makers can act on
Detail-oriented and deadline-driven, with a strong focus on efficiency and continuous process improvement
Comfortable evaluating and adopting emerging AI-driven security tools to strengthen detection and response capabilities
Degree in Information Technology, Cybersecurity, or equivalent hands-on experience in a technical security role
Candidates should be prepared to discuss how they are currently using AI in their cybersecurity or IT security work. This includes: Specific AI models and security tools in active use and how they are applied to vulnerability scanning, threat detection, triage, or remediation prioritization Examples of how AI-assisted tooling has helped you identify vulnerabilities or attacker techniques faster than traditional methods, and how you validated and acted on those findings How you stay current on emerging AI-enabled security tools and how you evaluate them for adoption into an organization's security stack
Bonus: examples of AI-driven security workflows or detection approaches that closed gaps, accelerated remediation cycles, or improved the organization's overall threat posture

Responsibilities

Leverage AI models and AI-assisted security tools as a standard part of the security workflow — using them to identify, triage, and prioritize vulnerabilities across systems, applications, and infrastructure, and to proactively surface attacker techniques before they can be exploited
Perform vulnerability management end to end, including scanning, risk-based prioritization, and tracking remediation through to closure
Partner with product engineering teams to review application and infrastructure security, working directly alongside engineers on remediations when hands-on support is needed
Support incident response and threat detection efforts across the environment, responding with urgency and thoroughness
Serve as a point of contact for IT and security-related audits, including external and internal audits, and work with external auditors as required
Assist with developing and implementing application security and privacy policies, standards, and educational programs
Actively review and contribute to ISMS and PIMS policies, standards, procedures, and guidelines, working with stakeholders and subject matter experts on maintenance and development
Perform IT and security control assessments and reviews, identify control deficiencies, and communicate findings clearly to control owners
Assist in maintaining and improving ISMS and PIMS compliance frameworks, providing compliance-related input for significant organizational changes
Configure and manage cyber-related systems including SSO, MDM, RMM, Vulnerability Scanners, AD/DC, IAM, and DLP
Establish and manage BC/DR testing, and assist in rolling out and monitoring technical cyber controls and safeguards
Stay current on emerging threats, attack techniques, and AI-enabled security tooling to continuously strengthen the organization's security posture
Gather, analyze, and evaluate risk and risk-related data, and develop positive relationships with the technology department, stakeholders, and customers
