  • Partner across engineering, infrastructure, cloud, cybersecurity, risk, and operational teams to understand technical exposure, remediation constraints, dependencies, and treatment options.
  • Help technology teams reduce risk by clarifying priorities, navigating barriers, and identifying actionable remediation approaches.
  • Analyze risk data to identify trends, concentrations, recurring conditions, and areas requiring additional attention.
  • Support technology-risk and control activities through technical analysis, interpretation of requirements, clarification of ownership, and development of trackable actions.
  • Influence outcomes across organizational boundaries and identify opportunities to improve risk practices, analytics, tooling, automation, guidance, and workflows.

  • Experience partnering across engineering, cybersecurity, technology, risk, or operational teams to solve complex problems and influence outcomes.
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently through ambiguous problems, analyze technical information and data, exercise sound judgment, and develop actionable recommendations.
  • Strong communication and stakeholder-management skills, with the ability to explain complex technical and risk concepts to technical and non-technical audiences.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Prior hands-on experience in software development, scripting, automation, application engineering, security engineering, or related technical work.
  • Experience across multiple technology domains, such as application or software engineering, cybersecurity, cloud or infrastructure, vulnerability management, or technology risk.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
