• Maintain layered email security controls and secure mail-flow architecture across Microsoft 365 and third-party security platforms, including SPF, DKIM, and DMARC.

• Continuously improve email security controls based on emerging threats, security events, and observed control effectiveness.

Zero Trust & Network Security

• Support the continued development of Zero Trust capabilities using Zscaler and related technologies.

• Partner with Network Engineering to strengthen secure internet access, traffic inspection, application control, and network security enforcement.

• Improve security controls through the effective use of identity, device posture, application, network, and threat context.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Security, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.

• 7+ years of experience in security engineering, infrastructure security, cloud security, or a related technical discipline, with demonstrated experience independently designing and implementing enterprise security solutions.
