Job Description

Senior Security Engineering & Compliance Lead

Cisco

Role Description This role is remote and can be worked from any US location, though preference is eastern time zone. The Cisco Secure Workload team is at the forefront of data center and cloud security. Our platform provides comprehensive, automated, policy-based security for multi-cloud environments, delivering deep visibility, micro-segmentation, and advanced threat detection. By leveraging sophisticated analytics and machine learning, we empower organizations to protect their workloads, ensuring compliance and operational resilience within increasingly complex, distributed infrastructures. Your Impact: - As a Senior Security Engineering & Compliance Lead, you will bridge the gap between technical infrastructure and regulatory rigor. - You will manage the implementation of security frameworks (SOC, ISO, NIST, etc) with automated compliance pipelines, hardened identity systems, and risk-mitigation strategies. - This role is for a hands-on engineer who views compliance as a technical problem to be solved through automation, robust system design, and proactive threat engineering. Engineering Compliance & Audit Automation - Architect Compliance-as-Code: Design and implement automated controls to satisfy security compliance requirements, reducing manual evidence collection through system integration. - Audit Readiness Engineering: Conduct technical gap assessments of infrastructure and applications; design remediation plans that integrate directly into the CI/CD pipeline. - Evidence Orchestration: Build and maintain automated data pipelines to provide real-time visibility into control effectiveness for auditors and stakeholders. Security Operations & Incident Engineering - Detection Engineering: Oversee security alert queues, prioritizing high-severity risks and engineering automated response playbooks to resolve incidents. - Incident Simulation: Facilitate and document technical incident response tabletop exercises, using the findings to engineer more resilient system architectures and automated recovery processes. - Documentation as Code: Maintain technical documentation and incident logs that serve as the "source of truth" for audit requirements. Identity & Access Engineering (IAM) - IAM Hardening: Engineer and enforce automated user access reviews and segregation-of-duties (SoD) testing. - Privileged Access Management (PAM): Audit and optimize privileged account controls, implementing technical guardrails to minimize the blast radius of unauthorized access. Risk & Vulnerability Engineering - Vulnerability Lifecycle Management: Perform deep-dive vulnerability analyses on enterprise infrastructure; engineer automated patch management and configuration hardening workflows. - Risk-Based Prioritization: Quantify business impact through technical risk assessments, collaborating with engineering teams to implement corrective technical controls rather than just policy-based fixes. Qualifications - Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, or related technical field with 8+ years of experience; or a Master’s degree with 6+ years. - Experience with security engineering in cloud-native environments (AWS/Azure/GCP) and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform/Ansible). - Experience working with technical security controls and regulated compliance frameworks such as SOC, ISO, etc. Requirements - Python, Go, or Bash scripting/programming for security automation or log analysis. - Hands-on experience building "Compliance-as-Code" solutions. - Certifications such as CCSP, CCSK, OSCP, cloud or security specific certifications. - Experience with SIEM/SOAR engineering and automated incident response orchestration. - Strong understanding of zero trust architecture and micro-segmentation engineering. Benefits - Medical, dental and vision insurance. - 401(k) plan with a Cisco matching contribution. - Paid parental leave. - Short and long-term disability coverage. - Basic life insurance. - 10 paid holidays per full calendar year, plus 1 floating holiday for non-exempt employees. - 1 paid day off for employee’s birthday, paid year-end holiday shutdown, and 4 paid days off for personal wellness determined by Cisco. - 16 days of paid vacation time per full calendar year for non-exempt employees. - Flexible vacation time off program for exempt employees. - 80 hours of sick time off provided on hire date and each January 1st thereafter. - Optional 10 paid days per full calendar year to volunteer.
