Lead and support Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) processes, including scoping, discovery, prioritization, validation, mobilization, and ongoing risk reduction activities.
Operate and improve vulnerability management, attack surface management, external posture management, cloud posture and SaaS posture capabilities.
Analyze vulnerability and posture data from multiple sources, normalize findings, and develop actionable risk-based remediation priorities.
Assess vulnerabilities using business context, asset criticality, exploitability, threat intelligence, exposure, compensating controls, and regulatory or compliance impact.
Drive remediation and risk treatment efforts with infrastructure, cloud, network, application, endpoint, DevOps, and business technology teams.
Lead emerging vulnerability and critical exposure response activities, including impact analysis, stakeholder coordination, mitigation tracking, and executive-level status reporting.
Create and maintain dashboards, metrics, and reporting for vulnerability trends, remediation progress, SLA performance, exposure reduction, attack surface changes, and program maturity.
Support implementation and optimization of unified vulnerability management workflows, including ticketing, ownership assignment, exception handling, rescan validation, remediation automation, and governance routines.
Evaluate and recommend improvements to scanning coverage, asset inventory quality, vulnerability data integrity, risk scoring, and stakeholder reporting.
Translate complex technical findings into clear remediation guidance for technical teams and concise risk summaries for leadership.
Contribute to security standards, procedures, playbooks, process documentation, and continuous improvement initiatives for the Vulnerability and Posture Management program.
Mentor junior engineers and analysts by providing technical guidance, quality review, and support for vulnerability triage and remediation governance.
