Type: Full-time, Direct Hire, On-site.
About the Role
We’re partnering with a growing manufacturer that’s adding a new Security Administrator to the team. This position opened up because of growth, not turnover, and you’ll be joining a solid IT and security group that’s building out their capabilities. You’ll report to the Director of Information Security and work closely with three other engineers and two corporate security analysts.
It’s a mix of hands-on monitoring, auditing systems, responding to alerts, and helping roll out new security tools and projects. You’ll also pitch in on network management, software support, email security, and identity management when needed.
What You’ll Do
- Keep an eye on SOC operations and respond to alerts
- Audit systems to make sure everything’s running the way it should
- Help implement new tools, controls, and processes
- Support network, software, and email systems
- Coordinate with third-party vendors and follow up on security issues
- Do regular health checks on security tools and share metrics like phishing counts and endpoint coverage
- Use Rapid7 or similar tools for vulnerability management
- Analyze logs and SIEM data to spot and fix issues early
Tech Environment
Proofpoint, Microsoft Defender, Rapid7, Cisco Meraki, Microsoft 365, Active Directory, Splunk
What We’re Looking For
- 5 years of experience as a Security Administrator or similar role
- Strong experience with SIEM tools and log analysis
- Solid background with Microsoft technologies (O365, Azure AD, Windows Server)
- Experience with Rapid7, Splunk, or similar platforms
- Strong organizational and communication skills
- Security or IT-related degree is a big plus
Why This Job Stands Out
- New role created because of company growth
- Direct line to leadership with real visibility
- Room to make an impact and grow with the team
- Company is investing in its people and security stack
Salary : $90,000 - $110,000
