Your role is to offensively test the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of pre-production Grid and Enterprise systems to enhance the security of Critical Infrastructure.

You agree with the principal of Open Security; even if an attacker knows exactly how the system’s security is implemented, the attacker should still be thwarted. You have the ability to reason around uncertainty. You are able to quickly digest architecture and engineering technical documentation, understand the target systems attack surface, generate a test plan and secure the appropriate resources with various domain expertise. The results you deliver are clear and actionable, providing a risk-based approach to remediation. As a Cybersecurity Vulnerability Management, Senior Specialist, your work will help power our planet, reduce carbon emissions and create cleaner air for everyone.
