• Automate security processes where feasible, including IAM workflows, vulnerability scans, and audit reporting using tools or scripting languages.
• Partner with IT, engineering, operations, and other internal teams to integrate security controls into system designs, infrastructure deployments, and software development lifecycles.
• Stay current on emerging threats, technologies, and industry best practices; evaluate new tools and recommend adoption where appropriate.
• Support regulatory compliance efforts by participating in internal and external audits as required.
• Contribute to enterprise-wide security projects and initiatives, providing expert guidance and technical leadership.
• Promote a culture of security awareness by mentoring peers, sharing knowledge, and championing secure-by-design principles.
• Other duties as assigned.

Education/ Experience/Skills:

• Expert working knowledge of security frameworks, standards, and cybersecurity best practices.
• Expert knowledge of enterprise-level security tools, including network defense solutions, cloud-native security capabilities, and identity and access management platforms.
• Solid working knowledge of OT communication protocols and cybersecurity practices within industrial control environments.

• Solid working knowledge of scripting languages for automation and orchestration tasks.

• Strong analytical and investigative skills with demonstrated problem-solving abilities.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
