General Notes
This is a hybrid remote/in-office position. The majority of time will need to be spent on campus to interact and oversee student employees serving the UT Regional Security Operations Center (UT RSOC), but remote work is allowable as is reasonable or suitable to the work being performed. Flexible work arrangements are available for this position and in addition to competitive salary and benefits (and an amazing opportunity to make an impact and do good across the State of Texas).
The UT RSOC, as envisioned by Texas Senate Bill 475, passed in the 87th Session of the Texas Legislature, and codified in Texas Government Code Chapter 2059, Subchapter E, will be focused on delivering a variety of cybersecurity services to various non-profit and/or government funded entities throughout the state (e.g., ISDs, municipalities) to raise awareness, improve security posture and resilience, etc. for entities that otherwise might not have much to work with. The UT RSOC will also provide a fantastic new experiential learning space for students to both provide important cybersecurity services across the state and develop valuable, concentrated cybersecurity experience for their futures and serve as an anchor for an eventual applied cybersecurity degree program. This position is funded by a grant from the State of Texas. Continued funding beyond the term of the grant is expected but is not guaranteed beyond 8/31/2026.
The RSOC Manager will report to the UT Austin Chief Information Security Officer and will be primarily responsible for operating and expanding the reach and impact of the UT RSOC. The UT RSOC will also support other RSOCs in Texas and the RSOC Manager will have a responsibility in ensuring quality service delivery and identifying new service opportunities.
The RSOC Manager will lead a team of full-time staff (e.g., outreach coordinator, training coordinator, program manager) who will support basic operations for the UT RSOC. The RSOC Manager will also oversee 25-60 part-time student staff members who will be the primary service delivery arm of the UT RSOC. The RSOC Manager will be responsible for ensuring that student employees are properly trained and equipped to effectively serve in the UT ROSC.
The RSOC Manager will also coordinate with a team of engineers operating out of the UT Information Security Office who will be delivering cybersecurity services to the UT RSOC (e.g., Splunk, Threat Intelligence, Vulnerability Management).
This is an amazing opportunity to be part of something special. Not only will this position be able to work with a strong, established team in the UT Information Security Office, but it will be able to extend a highly impactful service arm to entities across the state that are in great need. This role will also have a part in growing new talent who are passionate about cybersecurity and will graduate from UT and the UT RSOC to make an even bigger impact in their future endeavors.
The most important ingredients for success in this role are a strong ability to think creatively about problems, plan strategically and deliver operationally, very strong communication skills, a strong desire to serve, and a passion to learn and share knowledge.
You will get to work with a very intelligent and dedicated team to address enterprise cybersecurity challenges through novel approaches in an office that highly values work-life balance, the freedom to explore out of the box ideas, and serving others.
Most importantly, you will help take our tools and ideas to the next level. What starts here changes the world!
