Collaborate with the IT department to establish and maintain a comprehensive security posture that spans across all technological domains of our organization.

You possess a deep understanding of network and web-related protocols (e.g., TCP/IP, UDP, IPSEC, HTTP, HTTPS, routing protocols).
Experience with cloud security architectures and services, especially within AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform.
Proficient in scripting or programming languages (e.g., Python, Ruby, Java) and automation of security tasks.
You are an excellent problem-solver with the ability to think strategically and execute tactically.
Strong communication skills, with the ability to articulate complex security concepts to non-technical team members.
A proactive, self-driven individual with a passion for learning and staying updated with the latest in cybersecurity.
