Job description

The VIPR & VMDR Expert serves as an architect,, strategic analyst and technical operator — combining vulnerability lifecycle management with exploit intelligence, detection automation, and cross-functional coordination (ITSM).

You’ll lead how Armis detects, prioritizes, and responds to vulnerabilities across customer environments, infrastructure, SaaS ecosystems, and the Armis platform — ensuring our customers stay ahead of emerging exploits, threats, and exposures.

Key Responsibilities

• Own the end-to-end vulnerability and detection lifecycle — from discovery, triage, and prioritization through remediation and reporting.
• Lead the Vulnerability Intelligence, Prioritization & Detection Response (VIPR/VMDR) function, integrating threat intel, exploit data, and asset context to drive data-backed decisions.
• Correlate internal vulnerability telemetry with external feeds (NVD, CISA KEV, EPSS, Mandiant, Shodan, VulnDB, Centrix for Early Warning) to assess exploitability and exposure.
• Operate and tune vulnerability and detection tools (e.g., Tenable, Qualys, Rapid7, Wiz, Prisma Cloud, ServiceNow VR) across hybrid customer environments.
• Automate vulnerability scoring, detection correlation, and reporting pipelines using Python, PowerShell, REST APIs, or automation rules within AMS/VIPR.
• Partner with Customer Success, Security Engineering, and Cloud Infrastructure teams to track remediation SLAs, exposure metrics, and MTTR improvements.
• Build and publish risk dashboards, customer-facing reports, and executive briefings using Splunk, Power BI, Elastic, or AMS/VIPR.
• Develop and maintain the Armis Vulnerability Prioritization Model (VPM) — aligning exploit intelligence, CVSS/EPSS scoring, Armis Proprietary Risk Scoring, and business criticality to guide customer risk posture.
• Support penetration test remediation, red team findings, and customer security audits.
• Author weekly vulnerability intelligence reports, zero-day summaries, and leadership briefings for APJ/APAC stakeholders.
• Collaborate with Product Security and Threat Intelligence teams to integrate vulnerability and detection data into Armis platform insights.
• Deliver training sessions and enablement workshops for customers, engineers, and analysts on vulnerability trends, tools, and operational best practices.

Qualifications

• 6–10+ years of experience in Vulnerability Management, Threat Intelligence, or Security Detection Engineering.
• Deep expertise in CVSS, CWE/CVE, NVD, KEV, and exploit prediction (EPSS) frameworks.
• Hands-on experience with vulnerability and detection management platforms (Tenable, Qualys, Rapid7, Wiz, Prisma Cloud, ServiceNow VR, Centrix for VMDR).
• Proven ability to develop automation scripts and data pipelines (Python, PowerShell, Bash, REST APIs, JSON).
• Familiarity with risk-based vulnerability management (RBVM) and prioritization scoring models.
• Strong understanding of cloud-native security, container scanning, and hybrid infrastructure (AWS, Azure, GCP).
• Exceptional data storytelling skills — turning technical findings into actionable executive insights.
• Demonstrated ability to work independently and as part of a team.
• Exceptional communication skills across all levels of technical, middle management, and executive leadership personnel.
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Information Security, Computer Science, or related discipline.
• Previous experience operating in a "Voice of the Customer" (VoC) technical role directly embedded with Product Engineering pods.
• A track record of mentoring senior technical staff (TCMs, TAMs, or Solutions Engineers) and developing scalable knowledge-sharing frameworks.

Preferred Experience

• Prior experience in enterprise SaaS, cybersecurity, or customer-facing technical programs.
• Familiarity with Armis Centrix™ or similar asset intelligence and exposure management tools.
• Certifications such as CISSP, GCCC, GCTI, CEH, or CySA+.
• Experience supporting compliance frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001, FedRAMP) in enterprise environments.
• Strong cross-cultural communication and collaboration skills across global and regional teams (APJ/APAC).
