Job Details

Experience
10+ years

Requirements

  • 10+ years of experience in security engineering, vulnerability management, incident response, or offensive security.
  • Prior experience in incident response, penetration testing, red teaming, or exploitation is strongly preferred.
  • Demonstrated ownership of complex security programs as a senior individual contributor.
  • Deep understanding of vulnerability classes across infrastructure, cloud, and applications.
  • Strong grasp of exploitability, attack paths, privilege escalation, and real-world attacker tradecraft.
  • Experience validating vulnerabilities beyond scanner output.
  • Familiarity with cloud platforms, modern enterprise environments, and defense-in-depth controls.
  • Ability to engineer solutions that integrate data from multiple security and asset sources.
  • Exceptional ability to explain technical risk to engineers and non-security stakeholders.
  • Trusted partner mindset, credible, pragmatic, and outcome-focused.
  • Comfortable being accountable for decisions and program outcomes.

Responsibilities

  • Own Bridgewater’s vulnerability and exposure management program from detection through remediation and risk acceptance.
  • Define what “matters” from a vulnerability perspective and continuously refine that bar.
  • Validate vulnerabilities through technical analysis and, where appropriate, hands-on exploitation.
  • Apply a consistent risk methodology that accounts for asset criticality, data sensitivity, exposure (internal vs. external), exploitability, attacker prerequisites, and compensating controls.
  • Convert raw findings into prioritized, decision-relevant outputs aligned to enterprise risk.
  • Clearly articulate why a vulnerability is critical, acceptable, or noise.
  • Work directly with application and service owners to drive remediation of high-impact issues.
  • Build trust by providing clear logic, not mandates, and by respecting engineering realities.
  • Provide Detection & Response teams with context and prioritization guidance for zero-days and emerging threats.
  • Support response efforts without owning real-time containment or incident handling.
