Job Description & How to Apply Below

Network & Security Pros: We are looking for a Configuration Management Specialist to lead a major security hardening initiative.

This isn't just a "run the tool and report" role. We are looking for an engineer to own the migration of compliance baselines (90-95% of their environment) into Tenable Nessus over the next year.

The "Real" Scope (What the Manager is looking for): While the formal description asks for broad experience across OS, DBs, and Web Servers, the immediate priority is Network Devices (Firewalls, Routers, ADCs). You don't need to be an expert in everything, but you do need the technical aptitude to manipulate tools to meet specific internal hardening mandates.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Hardening: Customize industry-standard guides (CIS Benchmarks, DISA STIGs) for Network Devices, Linux, and Windows environments.
  • Migration: Lead the transition from legacy tools/CIS-CAT to Tenable Nessus
    .
  • Tool Manipulation: Customize Nessus Audit Files to verify endpoint configurations accurately.
What You Need to Win:


Tenable Nessus: Specific experience manipulating Audit Files is a massive plus.


Scripting: You must be comfortable with Regular Expressions (Regex) and XML to adjust tools and scripts.


Experience: 4-5 years in security configuration or compliance.


Tech Stack: Prior experience hardening Network Devices is the top priority, followed by RHEL or Windows.

Why Apply?

This is a high-visibility project where you will define the hardening requirements for a global financial network. The manager is realistic and flexible—if you have the security mindset and the Regex/Nessus skills, they are willing to work with you on the other technology domains.
