Information Security Lead

$115k - $150k

Full-time

Job Description

Position Purpose:

Working directly with the Vice President of Information Security, this role is designed for a highly autonomous security leader who combines strong technical depth with the ability to independently own and execute large-scale security initiatives.
Operating within a lean corporate team, you will serve as the primary technical project owner for the security program across multiple operating companies. This is a builder role, not a maintenance or oversight position.
You will be expected to architect, implement, and troubleshoot security controls from a blank canvas, while navigating business constraints across both corporate offices and 24/7 manufacturing environments. Success in this position requires an exceptional engineer who can own projects end-to-end, enforce a strict security framework mindset, and remain fully hands-on at the keyboard.
Essential Functions:

Enterprise Tool Ownership: Take complete engineering ownership of the core security stack, including Microsoft 365, Microsoft Defender, Intune (MDM/MAM), Entra ID (Identity & Access Management), Rapid7, and Proofpoint.

Strategic Security Architecture: Serve as an expert in security technologies and controls, driving decisions across infrastructure, identity, endpoint, and network security.

Project Leadership: Own and lead end-to-end security projects to independently scope requirements, define and track project timelines, manage vendor relationships, coordinate with IT teams, and ensure on-time delivery without disrupting business operations.

Incident Response & Root Cause Analysis: Investigate and perform root-cause analysis of issues including but not limited to: malware infections, data leakage, internal/external network abuse, and phishing attempts.

Vulnerability Management & Remediation: Drive the internal vulnerability management program utilizing Rapid7, actively identifying, prioritizing, and remediating potential security exposures, misconfigurations, and noncompliance issues across the enterprise.

Security Frameworks & Playbooks: Build and maintain security playbooks, standards, and procedures, acting as a creator of frameworks, not just a follower.

Continuous Auditing: Perform technical audits on patch management, privileged access, endpoint detection and response, network devices, wired/wireless access, and user access.

Additional Responsibilities:

Provide hands-on support across Active Directory, Entra, endpoint systems, network segmentation, and access control rules as needed.

Support and mature security awareness and phishing simulation programs.

Stay current on threat landscape, tooling, and security frameworks, applying knowledge directly to the environment.

Act as a trusted technical advisor to leadership across security and infrastructure decisions.

Education and Training

Bachelor's Degree in Information Security, Computer Science, or Information Systems.

ISC², GIAC, ISACA, SANS, CompTIA, Offensive Security, or CISSP security certification is preferred.

Minimum Qualifications

5-10+ years of hands-on experience in systems, network engineering, or security engineering roles.

Proven ability to design and implement security solutions from scratch, not just support or monitor existing environments.

Demonstrated experience owning and driving large-scale projects independently

Deep understanding of:

Networking fundamentals (firewalls, segmentation, routing)

Identity systems (Active Directory / Entra ID)

Endpoint security and EDR tools

Vulnerability management and patching strategies

Strong experience with incident response and forensic analysis, including root cause investigation (not just remediation).

Ability to operate without heavy reliance on MSSPs or external vendors.

Physical Demands

Lift up to 50 lbs.

Environmental Conditions

Up to 10% travel is required.

Behavioral Traits

Strong security-first mindset, balancing business needs without compromising controls.

Thrives in a highly autonomous environment with minimal oversight.

Comfortable pushing through organizational resistance and change-management challenges.

Highly curious with a strong desire to understand how systems work, not just tools.

Excellent communication skills across technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Ability to prioritize and execute multiple concurrent initiatives.

Pay & Benefits

Rate: In accordance with applicable pay transparency laws, the salary range for this position is $115,000 - $150,000 annually. Final compensation will be determined based on factors such as experience, education, qualifications, and other job-related criteria. This pay range is provided to ensure transparency and compliance with local, state, and federal regulations.
