Senior Cyber Security Manager

Inductive Automation LLC

1d • $200,000 - $220,000 • Hybrid

About The Position

The Senior Cybersecurity Manager serves as the operational leader of the cybersecurity team, reporting directly to the CISO. This role bridges strategic direction and day-to-day execution across three maturing practice areas: Threat Detection & Response, Corporate Security, and Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC). The Senior Cybersecurity Manager keeps a senior-level team aligned and accountable, owns the intake and evaluation of inbound security requests from across the organization, and maintains the ability to contribute hands-on when needed. This is a management role for someone who has not left the technical world behind. The team is experienced and largely self-directed — the right person here is a force multiplier, not a bottleneck. This is a full-time role with hybrid, remote, and on-site opportunities available.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Information Technology, Information Security, or related field; equivalent experience considered
• 7+ years of experience in cybersecurity, with a strong foundation in either: Security Operations — alert triage, incident investigation, detection engineering, vulnerability management, and/or system hardening; or Corporate Security — endpoint and infrastructure security, security architecture review, and evaluation of tools and technologies for IT and development teams
• Exposure to GRC or the complementary domain (SecOps or CorpSec) sufficient to credibly oversee those teams, set expectations, and make sound decisions — breadth matters as much as depth at this level
• 2+ years in a people management or technical lead role, with demonstrated experience leading senior individual contributors
• Experience with security tools such as SIEM, SOAR, EDR, NDR, PAM, DLP, or equivalent
• Familiarity with cloud security, particularly AWS
• Strong judgment about when to decide independently and when to escalate
• Ability to evaluate technology and vendor requests for security risk and communicate decisions clearly to non-security stakeholders
• Ability to prioritize, plan, and balance workload across a multi-functional team
• Effective communicator verbally and in writing

Responsibilities

• Owning day-to-day management of the cybersecurity team across all three practice areas, providing direction, removing blockers, and maintaining accountability
• Conducting performance reviews and delivering ongoing feedback that supports the growth and retention of senior-level contributors
• Fostering a collaborative, high-trust culture where experienced engineers can operate with autonomy while staying aligned to organizational goals
• Serving as the primary decision-maker for inbound requests from across the company and IT, particularly the evaluation of new software, tooling, vendors, and development projects for security risk and fit
• Establishing and maturing a lightweight intake and triage process that protects team focus without creating unnecessary friction for the business
• Escalating to the CISO only what requires executive judgment; owning everything else
• Keeping the team on track against priorities, maintaining visibility into work in progress, and surfacing resourcing gaps or risks early
• Supporting planning cycles by providing input on team capacity, priorities, and organizational needs
• Helping defining and maturing cross-vertical workflows, runbooks, and team processes as the organization grows
• Contributing technically in areas of your expertise, whether in security operations, corporate security, or risk, as capacity allows and gaps arise
• Providing technical review and informed guidance on engineering work across verticals where a senior second opinion adds value

Benefits

• Paid Time Off: Receive paid holidays, vacation, and sick time
• 401k with Match: Save for the future with our company-matching 401k program
