Staff Security Engineer
Full-time
Red Cup IT, Inc.
We are seeking a Staff Security Engineer who operates at the nexus of high-level strategy and multi-tenant operational excellence. While a traditional internal role secures a single enterprise perimeter , you are responsible for the integrated defense fabric of a vast portfolio of diverse client environments.
You will navigate the complexities of varied compliance needs and legacy technical debt, transforming them into a unified, scalable security posture. This is a technical leadership role designed for an expert who prefers the keyboard and the whiteboard over a people-management track, focusing on the "big picture" of our global security product stack.
Core Responsibilities
1. Strategic Security Architecture & Product Strategy
- Scalable Multi-tenancy: Architect and maintain hardened, isolated security stacks (SIEM, EDR, XDR) designed to scale across hundreds of distinct client environments.
- Product Vetting: Serve as the technical lead for vendor evaluations, "battle-testing" emerging tech to define our global standard offerings.
- Global Standardization: Engineer "Gold Image" baselines and automated deployment templates based on CIS and NIST frameworks to ensure rapid, secure onboarding.
2. Tier 4 Escalation & Forensic Mastery
- Final Authority: Serve as the ultimate technical escalation point for the SOC, leading the response to sophisticated APTs and complex breaches.
- Post-Mortem Leadership: Conduct deep-dive Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and translate incident findings into systemic, fleet-wide preventative measures.
3. Security Engineering & Hyper-Automation
- Security as Code: Build the automation tissue that connects our stack, utilizing Python, PowerShell, and Terraform to automate threat containment and patch management.
- Integration Engineering: Develop custom API integrations to bridge gaps between vulnerability scanners, RMM tools, and ticketing systems for seamless auto-remediation.
4. High-Stakes Advisory & Governance
- Strategic vCISO: Act as a high-level advisor for key accounts, translating abstract risk into actionable business roadmaps for C-suite stakeholders.
- Compliance Orchestration: Oversee technical evidence collection and governance for HIPAA, SOC 2, and CMMC, ensuring our clients remain audit-ready.
