Who we are looking for
We are looking for a seasoned security professional who combines deep technical expertise with strong security judgement. You are someone who understands that endpoint security and data security are inseparable, and that effective protection requires policy, technology, detection, and response.
Why this role is important to us
Endpoints and data remain the most frequently targeted entry points for modern cyber threats—ransomware, insider risk, and data exfiltration. As organizations adopt hybrid work, cloud services, and SaaS platforms at scale, traditional perimeter‑based security is no longer sufficient.

Review, triage, and process Airlock allowlisting requests from application and infrastructure teams, performing technical validation and escalating complex or high‑risk cases to senior engineers as required.
Assist with maintaining endpoint security baselines by implementing configuration changes, validating compliance, and documenting deviations or operational impacts.
Provide operational support for endpoint security tooling and platforms, including troubleshooting enforcement issues, validating allowlisting behavior, and supporting audit and compliance evidence collection
Participate in a scheduled on‑call rotation, providing after‑hours and weekend support for: Endpoint hardening or execution control issues
Secondary responsibilities:
Collaborate with Network Security (NetSec) teams as needed to support endpoint‑to‑network exposure reduction efforts, such as restricted protocol usage, connectivity dependencies, or Zero Trust enforcement impacts.
