About The Position

The Senior Security Documentation & Design Specialist ensures the Information Security organization speaks with one clear, consistent, and credible voice — in its writing, its visuals, and the artifacts that carry the program to the rest of the enterprise. The premise is straightforward: clear security is good security. A program’s work (risk posture, control maturity, incident response, regulatory readiness) is only as strong as the organization’s ability to see it, understand it, and prove it, and the clarity with which a program can be explained is itself a measure of its maturity. This role translates complex, often invisible security activity into clear, accurate, and visually compelling artifacts for distinct audiences: executives and the Board, who need decisions framed in plain language and confident visuals; auditors and regulators, who need defensible, well-organized evidence; employees, who need to absorb secure behavior; and engineers, who need precise reference material. Equal parts technical writer, information designer, and illustrator, this role also serves as a standards-setter — owning the templates, production cadence, and visual craft that make the security organization’s work legible and credible across the enterprise.

Requirements

• 5+ years of professional experience spanning two or more of: technical or visual communication, information/UX design, technical illustration, and editorial/copywriting — ideally in a corporate or enterprise setting.
• Hands-on experience authoring security and compliance documentation — for example, PCI-DSS control documentation and audit evidence, security policies, or other audit-ready artifacts.
• A strong portfolio demonstrating both polished visual design (diagrams, infographics, illustration, presentation design) and clear, well-structured writing.
• Mastery of professional design tools (e.g., Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop; Figma) and diagramming tools (e.g., Lucidchart, Visio, draw.io).
• Ability to translate concepts into interactive wireframes and functional prototypes, using AI-assisted development tools to build working proofs of concept without a traditional engineering hand-off.
• Comfort designing reporting and dashboard interfaces that draw from shared data sources, so the same metrics can be presented consistently across live dashboards, slides, web pages, and written formats.
• Exceptional writing and editing ability, with a proven knack for making complex or dry material clear, accurate, and engaging for varied audiences.
• Demonstrated ability to learn unfamiliar technical domains quickly by interviewing experts and reading source material independently.
• Strong delivery discipline — the ability to turn open-ended, creative work into finished, published artifacts on a predictable schedule.

Nice To Haves

• Familiarity with additional compliance and risk frameworks such as NIST CSF, the CIS Critical Security Controls, PCI-DSS, or SOX.
• Experience producing security-awareness or other behavior-change training content.
• Docs-as-code experience (Git/GitHub or Azure DevOps, Markdown and Obsidian vaults, static site generators such as MkDocs, Docusaurus, or Hugo) and diagrams-as-code (Mermaid, PlantUML).
• Experience with training-authoring or motion tools (e.g., Articulate, Camtasia, After Effects).
• Familiarity with information architecture, taxonomy design, and content governance.
• Bilingual, Military, Military Spouses and Veteran applicants are strongly encouraged to apply!

Responsibilities

• Design and produce Board-level and executive security materials — risk reports, posture dashboards, program updates, and decision briefs — translating technical findings into clear narratives and high-impact visuals for non-technical leadership.
• Develop a consistent executive reporting format that lets leadership track the security program’s trajectory at a glance, quarter over quarter.
• Help design a unified security-metrics reporting layer in which a single, shared pool of metrics is surfaced at every altitude — operational dashboards for analysts, reporting for management, and narrative for executives and the Board — so each audience sees the same underlying truth at the level of detail it needs.
• Build and maintain the presentation layers that sit on top of that shared data — live web dashboards and single-page apps, slide decks, web pages, and written reports — so metrics are defined once and rendered consistently across formats rather than rebuilt by hand for each artifact.
• Partner with security engineering and analysts to wire these views to their data sources, ensuring the figures a Board member sees roll up cleanly from the same signals the SOC works with day to day.
• Author and maintain security policies, standards, procedures, and control narratives, ensuring alignment with frameworks such as NIST CSF, PCI-DSS, and SOX, and packaging audit evidence into clean, defensible, review-ready form.
• Create precise technical diagrams — network and data-flow diagrams, system architectures, threat models, and process maps — that satisfy compliance, audit, and privacy requirements while remaining genuinely readable.
• Conceive, write, illustrate, and produce security awareness and training content — e-learning modules, microlearning, phishing-simulation creative, infographics, posters, and campaign materials — that changes behavior because people actually want to engage with it.
• Produce and maintain operational documentation for the security organization — runbooks, incident-response playbooks, the InfoSec operations manual, and executive incident summaries — capturing complex processes accurately and keeping them current.
• Review and elevate content authored by engineers and analysts, providing constructive guidance on clarity, structure, accuracy, and visual quality.
• Establish and steward a visual and editorial system for the security organization — templates, style guide, diagram conventions, and a recognizable design language — so that everything the team publishes is consistent, professional, and unmistakably its own.
• Rapidly wireframe and prototype internal security applications and tools — from interactive mockups to working proofs of concept — using AI-assisted development tools to turn an idea into something the team can see, click through, and react to in days rather than months.
• Partner with security engineering to translate workflow needs into tangible prototypes that sharpen decisions on what to build, buy, or refine before significant resources are committed.
• Operate on a published editorial calendar and content-production cadence, managing an intake-to-publication backlog with defined priorities, review gates, and deadlines so that creative work consistently ships.
• Partner with security leadership and subject-matter experts to scope, sequence, and prioritize documentation and design initiatives against program milestones and audit timelines.
• Own and improve the documentation and design toolchain (docs-as-code with Git/Markdown, diagramming and design platforms, training-authoring tools) and recommend new capabilities where they raise quality or speed.
• Track engagement, comprehension, and audit-readiness metrics to demonstrate impact and continuously refine both content and process.
• Other duties as assigned.
