  • Support periodic reviews to ensure risk records remain accurate and current


Identity & Access Support
  • Participate in access reviews, entitlement validations, and privilege attestations
  • Track review outcomes and remediation activities
  • Support documentation and evidence related to access management controls
  • Promote least-privilege and appropriate access practices through consistent execution


Application & Product Security Collaboration
  • Work with software engineers and product teams during design and implementation of new systems
  • Assist with security reviews for applications, SaaS tools, and internal services
  • Help validate security considerations such as authentication, authorization, data protection, and logging
  • Support integration of security requirements into development and deployment workflows


Security Tools, Automation & Process Improvement
  • Assist in operationalizing security tools that are newly implemented or not yet fully adopted
  • Help define and document workflows, procedures, and ownership for security technologies
  • Identify opportunities to improve existing automations or reduce manual effort
  • Contribute ideas and support efforts to modernize and scale security operations


Security Program & Gap Identification
  • Identify gaps, inefficiencies, or inconsistencies across security processes and controls
  • Assist with developing practical, risk-based plans to address identified gaps
  • Track progress and support implementation of improvement initiatives
  • Help establish metrics and reporting to measure control effectiveness


Required Qualifications
  • 3-6 years of experience in information security, IT operations, or risk-related roles
  • Exposure across multiple security areas (security operations, access management, governance, or risk)
  • Basic understanding of application security concepts and how software is built and deployed
  • Strong organizational, documentation, and follow-up skills
  • Ability to work effectively with distributed teams across regions


Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with endpoint security, vulnerability management, or SIEM tooling
  • Familiarity with security frameworks or control-based programs (SOC 2, ISO, NIST, CIS)
  • Experience working alongside software engineers or platform teams
