? About This Opportunity

Job Summary:

You will not see any vendor names in the responsibilities listed below. We are more interested in aptitude and attitude, than specific OS experience. Let us know your history, but of more interest is your grasp of technical concepts, not specific user interfaces.

You will act as a subject matter expert (SME) on behalf of our customers (other business units within 7-Eleven), to ensure their projects and deployments succeed with appropriate security posture, in a timely manner. You must have a passion for learning new technologies, not simply working with what you already know. You will be provided with the tools to produce your own career success, but you must seize them and create that success. You will be challenged in a fast-paced environment, but success in handling these challenges will not go unnoticed or unrewarded.

• Lead projects assigned to you, in effort to advance partnership opportunities between Network Security team and other business areas. Determine appropriate methods and procedures on new assignments and occasionally assist with coordinating activities of junior teammates.
• Work with team lead/manager to define network security requirements for current and future state end-to-end architectures and platforms to advance security controls and the security posture of the business.
• Collaborate with development and engineering teams to prioritize security risks, provide mitigation or remediation recommendations, and implement compensating controls.
• Perform network security architecture and third-party risk management reviews.
• Perform or lead teammates in performing network security platform testing, vulnerability remediation, and operating system hardening to reduce attack surface.
