Manage IT and OT network infrastructure at hydropower facilities, ensuring high availability and reliability. Implement network security controls (ACLs, segmentation, IDS/IPS) and support vulnerability scanning and remediation. Review proposed system and infrastructure changes for security, compliance, and architectural impact.
• Provide Tier 1/Tier 2 support for hardware, software, network connectivity, VPN, and remote access issues. Maintain accurate ticket documentation and contribute to knowledge base articles.

• Education and Experience:
  • Bachelor’s degree in information security, information systems, computer science, engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
  • Proven experience in regulatory compliance, audit, GRC, or internal controls, ideally in electric utility, energy, or another regulated or critical-infrastructure environment.
  • Working knowledge of the NERC CIP compliance lifecycle, including self-certification, self-reporting, mitigation, and audit.
• Hands-on experience in network administration and/or IT support, ideally in a multi-site or critical-infrastructure environment.
• Regulatory compliance/audit experience is a plus; working knowledge of the NERC CIP compliance lifecycle is a strong plus.
• Strong practical skills with network hardware/software (Cisco, Palo Alto, Fortinet or similar), TCP/IP, VLANs, routing, switching, firewalls, VPNs, and wireless.
• Communication and Collaboration:
  • Strong written communication and documentation discipline to produce audit-ready evidence and clear compliance reporting.
  • Ability to collaborate and work cross-functionally with teams such as IT, operational technology, physical security, legal, and management.
