- Strong knowledge of industry security frameworks and benchmarks, including NIST, ISO, SOC 2, and CIS Baselines.
- Excellent documentation skills for technical procedures and reporting are required.

- Lead enterprise-wide penetration testing by scoping assessments with external vendors, coordinating testing across IT and OT environments, and driving remediation of identified findings.
- Build, implement, and maintain security controls across IT and OT environments, ensuring strong guardrails are embedded in cloud and infrastructure deployments.
