The Lead / Staff Operational Security Engineer will serve as the operational backbone and technical authority for the vulnerability lifecycle. This role focuses on maintaining operational excellence across hybrid environments, leading response operations for critical threats, and acting as the primary operational bridge to software and platform teams—defining specific automation requirements and validating automated solutions to scale scanning, triage, and reporting operations.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Operational Execution & Vulnerability Lifecycle Management

• Oversee and execute day-to-day VA/PT operational workflows across hybrid infrastructure (AWS, GCP, Azure, and legacy data centers) to guarantee scanning coverage, accurate triage, and SLA enforcement.
• Lead operational response efforts for emergency vulnerabilities, zero-day outbreaks, and active exploitation threats, coordinating war rooms and rapid mitigations across IT and Business units.
• Analyze complex vulnerabilities to eliminate false positives, evaluate real-world exploitability, and establish strict prioritization using threat intelligence (CVE, CISA KEV, IOCs) and CVSS/SSVC metrics.
• Drive end-to-end remediation tracking with system, network, and application owners, maintaining tight oversight on vulnerability aging, SLAs, and exception/deferral workflows.
• Establish and monitor daily operational Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and metrics, delivering actionable reports to operational leadership and audit teams.

Automation Requirements & Validation

• Translate daily operational bottlenecks and manual testing workflows into actionable automation requirements for the InfoSec Engineering and DevOps teams.
• Establish test plans and rigorously validate all incoming automation initiatives, scripts, API integrations, and CI/CD security gates developed by engineering teams before production rollout.
• Define requirements for automated tool configuration, automated asset discovery, ticket creation workflows, and shift-left scanning triggers to maximize operational throughput.

People Leadership & Operational Governance

• Lead, direct, and mentor a high-performing team of operational VA/PT analysts, establishing clear operational playbooks and standard operating procedures (SOPs).
• Manage day-to-day operational schedules, workload distribution, shift coverage, and ticket escalation queues.
• Oversee operational relationships with third-party scanning vendors, external penetration testing teams.
