We’re seeking a Principal Information Security Engineer to serve as a senior individual contributor on a Security Engineering team, defining and driving enterprise security architecture, strategy, and long-term technical direction across a broad portfolio of security technologies. This role owns multiple platforms end-to-end (not just one tool) and sets engineering standards, reference architectures, and scalable patterns used across the organization.
You’ll work with technologies spanning SIEM, SOAR/case management, EDR, secure email gateways, and DLP
across endpoint and email environments. You’ll operate with significant autonomy, lead through influence, and guide critical decisions that shape the organization’s security posture and risk profile.
Key Responsibilities
- Set enterprise security direction: Define reference architectures, strategy, and engineering standards across security, infrastructure, endpoints, networking, and emerging technologies.
- Engineer and govern integrated security capabilities: Design, implement, and govern security solutions across SIEM/SOAR, EDR, email security, and DLP—ensuring end-to-end normalization and integration for strong detection and response.
- Scale security operations through automation: Establish automation patterns and durable engineering designs that improve efficiency, consistency, scalability, and response across environments.
- Lead and influence at the highest levels: Translate technical risk into business/regulatory context, mentor engineers, lead audits/assessments, and direct technical response for high-severity incidents.
Required Experience & Qualifications
- Principal-level security experience: 10+ years in information security with deep expertise across multiple domains (architecture, engineering, and operations).
- Modern security platform experience: Hands-on familiarity with current security technologies (e.g., Google SecOps, Databahn, Bindplane, Proofpoint, Microsoft Security) and the ability to evaluate/adopt new tools.
- Scripting & automation skills: Proven ability to script/automate security operations workflows and engineering tasks.
- Systems/platform administration: Strong Linux/Unix and Windows administration skills, including identity platforms such as Active Directory and Entra ID .
Preferred / Nice to Have
- Bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity, Computer Science, or related field
- Strong system administration background in both Linux and Windows
- Specific experience with Google SecOps SIEM , Microsoft Security stack , and/or Proofpoint Email Security
- Security certifications such as CISSP , CASP , or similar
Salary: $148,000-$192,500/year
