In this role you will contribute to and, over time, drive the technical resolution of security risk across the IBM enterprise, operating at the intersection of security operations, engineering, and architecture. You will help teams recover from incidents, remediate vulnerabilities, and implement durable, scalable security improvements. Depending on the engagement and experience level, you may remediate issues directly, partner with engineering teams to drive fixes, or design repeatable remediation patterns. This role is not a primary SOC, detection, or application security pipeline ownership role, but partners closely with those teams to drive remediation outcomes. The ideal candidate thrives in high-pressure environments, thinks like both an attacker and defender, and communicates clearly with technical and non-technical stakeholders. This role spans multiple technical domains. Candidates are not expected to be experts in all areas; strong candidates demonstrate deep expertise in one or two domains and working knowledge of adjacent areas. Your Role and Responsibilities Areas of specialization may include: * Scripting, Automation & Infrastructure as Code: Python, Ansible, Terraform, or similar tooling * Cloud & Virtualized Environments: IBM Cloud, AWS, Azure, GCP; virtualization and container platforms * Operating Systems & Networking: Windows or Linux; network segmentation, SDN, and isolation techniques * Security Technologies: EDR, NGFW, IDS, SIEM, SOAR, and related platforms Key Duties: * Support containment, recovery, and post-incident remediation by identifying root causes and implementing technical fixes that reduce recurrence. * Partner with product, engineering, and infrastructure teams to embed security within existing practices. * Conduct security and risk assessments of applications, platforms, and infrastructure, including threat modelling and targeted technical review. * Apply security principles to protect systems and data, ensuring availability, authentication, authorization, confidentiality, and integrity. * Create technical documentation outlining remediation guidance and security best practices. * Develop or implement tools to support detection, prevention and analysis of security threats.
