Job description

The technology team at Consulting Edge ships on Fridays without flinching, and the Cybersecurity Analyst we hire will understand why that matters. Strip away the buzzwords and here's the deal $87,000 - $133,000, hybrid hours, and a technology team at Consulting Edge that actually hands you the keys.

Key Responsibilities

• Decide when to buy Nmap versus build it for Consulting Edge's Charlottesville, VA stack
• Watch Cultural Awareness error budgets and pump the brakes before Charlottesville, VA burns through them
• Translate a napkin idea from Consulting Edge founders into a Nmap craft-focused prototype
• Wire SIEM APIs to CEH consumers so data lands where Charlottesville teams expect it
• Pair with cross-functional partners to scope and deliver hybrid projects
• Build Secure Code Review dashboards so Consulting Edge's technology team stops asking engineers for numbers
• Translate ruthlessly-focused business requirements into technical specifications and tasks

What You'll Bring

• Proven aptitude for Vulnerability Assessment, ideally near Charlottesville, VA
• Self-direction that survives a quiet Slack channel
• Self-motivated and able to work independently with minimal oversight
• Confident communicator across email, calls, and in-person meetings

Anchored in Charlottesville, VA, Consulting Edge designs the kind of genuinely-flexible systems that technology teams quietly depend on every single day. Trust is the default setting at Consulting Edge; you have to actively spend it to lose it.

The $87,000 - $133,000 we offer comes attached to mentorship, a clear ladder, real benefits, and flexible hybrid days you can plan around.
