Job description

We measure our technology engineers by what they make easy for everyone else, and that's the Cybersecurity Analyst bar in Santa Clara. For the fast-growing Cybersecurity Analyst with 1 years, Kohls answers with $84,000 - $132,000, a part-time setup, and a ladder built for climbing.

Key Responsibilities

• Reproduce the outcome-focused bug from the Santa Clara field report, then make it impossible again
• Ship OWASP Top 10 fixes to Kohls customers in Santa Clara, CA the same day they report them
• Wire Decision Making APIs to Secure Code Review consumers so data lands where Santa Clara teams expect it
• Tune Zero Trust queries until the CA database stops timing out under load
• Stress-test Decision Making systems until they bend, then harden where they cracked
• Ship the OWASP Top 10 slow-to-anger rewrite that pays down years of Kohls technical debt
• Question the team-oriented Zero Trust pattern everyone copied and propose something cleaner

What You'll Bring

• Hands-on Cloud Security experience that survives a whiteboard interview
• 1 or more years steering technology projects end to end
• A nimble bias toward action, balanced by knowing when to wait
• Flexibility to adapt your approach as business needs evolve

Kohls took a tired corner of the technology world and rebuilt it, brick by brick, from a small office in Santa Clara, CA. We celebrate the person who asks the dumb question that saves the whole technology project.

We offer $84,000 - $132,000 and the things money cannot fake, real mentorship, lasting benefits, and flexibility you will actually use.

We re-validated this opening today; Kohls is still on the lookout.

Don't wait for the perfect moment to switch into technology work, because it's right now.
