IT Security Analyst

The Security Analyst will support cybersecurity efforts across highly automated manufacturing environments, with a primary focus on Operational Technology (OT) security and vulnerability management. This individual will be responsible for identifying, assessing, prioritizing, and helping remediate security vulnerabilities across connected manufacturing assets and shop-floor environments.

Ensure you read the information regarding this opportunity thoroughly before making an application.

Approximately 75% of the role will focus on vulnerability management, with the remaining 25% focused on incident response, threat hunting, network traffic analysis, and related security activities. The analyst will monitor OT environments across approximately 10 locations and partner closely with Advanced Automation, plant operations, network engineering, and cybersecurity teams to reduce risk while maintaining manufacturing availability.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

• Identify, assess, prioritize, and track cybersecurity vulnerabilities across OT, industrial, and automated manufacturing environments
• Support vulnerability management activities across connected shop-floor assets at multiple manufacturing locations
• Analyze vulnerabilities based on technical risk, operational impact, asset criticality, and available remediation or mitigation options
• Partner with Advanced Automation, floor operations, and Network Engineering teams to develop practical remediation strategies that minimize disruption to manufacturing operations
• Utilize OT security, asset visibility, vulnerability management, and network traffic analysis platforms to identify risks and suspicious activity
• Monitor OT network activity and investigate abnormal or potentially malicious behavior
• Perform threat hunting and security analysis across manufacturing environments
• Participate in cybersecurity incident response activities involving OT and manufacturing systems
• Analyze security alerts, network traffic, system information, and available logs to identify potential security events
• Assist with improving security controls, network visibility, and risk management across manufacturing environments
• Support the evaluation and implementation of new OT cybersecurity technologies and capabilities
• Collaborate with internal technical and operational stakeholders to strengthen cybersecurity practices across manufacturing locations

• 5+ years of cybersecurity experience, with hands-on experience supporting security in OT, ICS, industrial, or manufacturing environments
• Strong experience with vulnerability management, including vulnerability identification, risk prioritization, remediation, mitigation, and tracking
• Experience securing or monitoring automated manufacturing / shop-floor environments
• Understanding of OT/ICS networks and the unique security and operational requirements associated with manufacturing systems
• Experience with security monitoring, network traffic analysis, asset visibility, xrbllit or threat detection
• Understanding of incident response and threat-hunting concepts
• Ability to analyze cybersecurity risk and partner with operational and engineering teams on practical remediation strategies
• Strong communication and cross-functional collaboration skills

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with Armis, Dragos, or comparable OT cybersecurity/asset visibility platforms such as Claroty, Nozomi Networks, Tenable OT, or Microsoft Defender for IoT
• Experience supporting cybersecurity across multiple manufacturing facilities
• Knowledge of industrial control systems (ICS), SCADA environments, industrial network segmentation, and common industrial protocols
• Familiarity with security architecture and network security concepts
• Experience working directly with automation/controls engineers and plant operations teams
• Cybersecurity certifications such as CISSP, GICSP, Security+, or similar credentials
