Senior Cybersecurity Engineer

As a Senior Cybersecurity Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in securing our web-based platforms, ensuring they are protected from evolving threats. You'll lead the response to security incidents, perform threat analysis, and manage the development and implementation of cyber ranges for simulation and training. Additionally, you will guide the secure development of our platforms, like LMS and hackathon environments, to ensure they are resilient against cyber threats.

Responsibilities

Incident Response & Threat Analysis:

• Lead and manage security incidents from identification through resolution, ensuring timely responses and minimizing damage.
• Perform deep threat analysis to identify and assess current and emerging threats to web platforms and infrastructure.
• Develop and maintain incident response protocols for web platforms, integrating lessons learned into future strategies.

Cyber Range Development & Simulation:

• Design, develop, and maintain cyber ranges for testing security measures and training
• teams. Simulate real-world cyberattacks to identify weaknesses and improve incident response capabilities.
• Collaborate with internal teams to create realistic attack scenarios that enhance platform defense mechanisms.

Platform Security Leadership:

• Oversee the security architecture and development of innovative platforms such as Learning Management Systems (LMS) and hackathon tools.
• Ensure secure coding practices and integrate security into the platform development li
• fecycle.Lead the implementation of security features such as secure authentication, data protection, and vulnerability management.

Collaboration & Training:

• Work closely with development teams to integrate security best practices in platform design and deployment.
• Educate internal teams on security threats and prevention strategies, fostering a security-aware culture.

Proactive Threat Prevention:

• Continuously monitor threat intelligence sources to stay ahead of potential cyber threats.
• Implement advanced security tools and frameworks for proactive detection and prevention of cyber incidents.

Eligibility

• 5-10 years of experience in cybersecurity, with a focus on incident response, threat analysis, and web platform security.
• Strong expertise in securing web applications, including LMS, hackathon platforms, and other custom-built solutions.
• Hands-on experience with cyber range development and simulated threat scenarios for training and testing purposes.
• Experience in designing and implementing security protocols for incident response, monitoring, and mitigation.
• Deep understanding of cybersecurity concepts, including threat modeling, risk management, and vulnerability assessments.
• Familiarity with security tools and frameworks for platform security (SIEM, WAF, IDS/IPS, etc.).
• Knowledge of secure coding practices, application security (OWASP), and platform-specific security considerations.
• Experience with threat intelligence and the ability to apply it to improve platform defenses.

Desired Eligibility

• Certifications: CISSP, CISM, CEH, or equivalent.Experience with cloud-based security (AWS, Azure) and container security.
• Familiarity with modern web frameworks (React, ) and secure development practices.
• Experience with threat hunting, digital forensics, and advanced malware analysis techniques..
