Description

Atomic Machines is ushering in a new era of micromanufacturing with its Matter Compiler™ technology platform. This platform enables new classes of micromachines to be designed and built by providing manufacturing processes and a materials library that are inaccessible to semiconductor manufacturing methods. It unlocks MEMS manufacturing not only for device classes that could never be produced by semiconductor methods, but also for entirely new categories. Furthermore, this digital platform is fully programmable in the way 3D printing is digital—but whereas 3D printing produces parts of a single material using a single process, the Matter Compiler™ technology platform is a multi-process, multi-material system: bits and raw materials go in, and complete, functional micromachines come out. The Atomic Machines team has also created an exciting first device—made possible only through the Matter Compiler™ technology platform—that we will be unveiling to the world soon. Our offices are in Emeryville and Santa Clara, California. About The Role: The Technical Manager, Cybersecurity is a hands-on role responsible for managing the full lifecycle of enterprise cybersecurity tools, technologies, and detection capabilities across a complex hi-tech manufacturing environment. This role bridges strategic security direction with day-to-day technical execution — managing an external team of engineers and security vendors to deliver consistent, scalable protection across cloud, OT/ICS, endpoint, identity, and network domains. The successful candidate will own the detection and response program, drive cloud security best practices, set technical direction for SIEM and cloud-native security platforms, and embed security into cloud design, IAM strategy, and network architecture. This is a role that is the escalation point for incidents and a key voice in shaping security policy, standards, and vendor partnerships. What You’ll Do: In this role, you will: Advance the detection and response program, leading coverage across Cloud, SaaS, Endpoint, and Identity domains. Implement organization-wide automation to reduce alert fatigue and accelerate response across all security tooling. Mature SIEM and cloud-native logging architectures, ensuring a cost-aware telemetry pipeline spanning corporate, manufacturing, and engineering environments. Define and implement scalable security controls that strengthen cloud and infrastructure security through detection, configuration standards, and automated enforcement. Primary Responsibilities: Security Tool Management Own end-to-end lifecycle management of the enterprise security toolset, including deployment, configuration, tuning, and decommissioning. Configure and manage network security platforms, including next-gen firewalls, IDS/IPS, DDI, VPN, NAC, Web Filtering, CASB/SASE, SIEM, EDR/XDR, vulnerability scanners, and network traffic visibility solutions. Manage SIEM operations, including data source onboarding, log normalization, correlation rule development, and alert tuning. Develop and enforce network device hardening standards; serve as the senior technical escalation point for break/fix incidents across internal and vendor teams. Team Leadership & Vendor Management Lead and mentor internal technical staff and external security vendors, holding all parties accountable to SLAs, quality standards, and security outcomes. Partner with MSPs, SOCs, and specialized vendors to extend team capabilities; conduct regular performance reviews and contract evaluations. Interface with IT leadership and security management to develop solutions that meet evolving business and regulatory requirements. AWS Security & Cloud Posture Define and enforce cloud security best practices across all accounts and organizational units, including IAM least-privilege, resource policy governance, and SCP guardrails. Lead implementation and tuning of cloud security services; maintain network security architecture, including VPC segmentation, security groups, PrivateLink, WAF, and DDoS protection services. Help embed security into CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure as Code(IaC) templates in partnership with cloud and platform engineering teams. Define cloud security configuration standards (CIS Benchmarks, Security Best Practices, etc.) and enforce automated compliance. Threat Detection & Incident Response Lead threat-model–driven detection strategy across SIEM, cloud-native platforms, and adjacent tooling, ensuring coverage across cloud, SaaS, endpoint, and identity domains. Serve as our senior escalation point during complex incidents, driving technical analysis, coordinating response, and guiding post-incident remediation. Identify gaps in detection coverage, telemetry ingestion, and automation; mature playbooks to reduce detection and response time across security operations. OT/ICS & Manufacturing Security Conduct OT cybersecurity assessments, identifying risks and prioritizing remediation recommendations. Design and support network segmentation strategies for OT/IT convergence environments, including segmented ICS networks. Identify and implement appropriate remote and local access controls for manufacturing systems, collaborating with engineering and operations teams to avoid disrupting production. Architecture & Engineering Standards Own and maintain architectural standards, including reference architectures, data flow diagrams, detection pipeline operating models, and security design patterns. Partner with IT infrastructure, platform, and engineering teams to embed security into cloud design, IAM strategy, and network architecture from inception. Policy, Compliance & Governance Develop and maintain security policies and procedures aligned to support regulatory requirements (NIST, SOC 2, ISO 27001). Ensure audit-readiness and evidence collection for compliance assessments; produce stakeholder-ready risk articulations, including impact assessments and recommended mitigations. What You’ll Need: Bachelor's degree in Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Information Systems, or related technical field. Equivalent combination of education and experience considered. 8+ years of progressive cybersecurity engineering experience, with at least 2–3 years in a technical lead or people management capacity. Demonstrated experience managing both internal security engineers and external vendors/MSSPs, with accountability for security outcomes and SLA adherence. Hands-on expertise with enterprise SIEM platforms (Splunk, Sentinel, Chronicle, or equivalent) including detection rule authoring, data onboarding, and operational tuning. Deep working knowledge of cloud security services: Security Hub, GuardDuty, CloudTrail, Config, IAM, Macie, Inspector, VPC security architecture, and SCPs. Experience conducting OT/ICS cybersecurity assessments in manufacturing, industrial, or critical infrastructure environments is strongly preferred. Familiarity with threat modeling frameworks (MITRE ATT&CK, STRIDE) and their application to cloud and OT environments. Experience developing security automation using SOAR platforms (Palo Alto XSOAR, Splunk SOAR, Tines, or equivalent) and scripting (Python, PowerShell). CISSP or CISM, AWS Certification, CompTIA Security+, GIAC, GCIA, GCIH, Palo Alto PCNSE or Splunk Certified Architect, etc. Technical Skills: SIEM / Detection: Splunk ES, Microsoft Sentinel, Rapid 7, Palo Alto – rule authoring, data onboarding, correlation tuning AWS Security: Security Hub, GuardDuty, CloudTrail, Config, Macie, Inspector, WAF, IAM, SCPs, VPC security architecture, AWS Organizations Security Tools: Firewalls, IDS/IPS, SIEM (Rapid7/Splunk/Palo Alto), NAC (Cisco ISE/Aruba ClearPass), Vulnerability Scanners Cloud IAM: AWS IAM, Okta, Azure AD/Entra ID, PAM (CyberArk/BeyondTrust) – identity governance and least privilege OT/ICS Security: Dragos, Claroty, or Nozomi – OT visibility; Purdue model, IEC 62443, NERC CIP awareness The compensation for this position also includes equity and benefits.
