Job Description

Role: Threat Implementation Engineer

Pay-$62/hr

Location: Remote

hiring manager is specifically looking for engineers with hands-on experience working directly with security appliances , rather than candidates with primarily analytical or platform usage skills. The key platforms in scope are:

  • Malware Protection – Trellix/FireEye
  • Secure Web Gateway (Proxy) – Skyhigh/McAfee
  • Orchestration – F5 SSLO
  • Scripting – Automation across these platforms using Python, Perl, etc.

Among these, proxy expertise (Skyhigh SWG) is in particularly high demand, as the client has a significant number of appliances that need to be upgraded or replaced. While experience across all three platforms is valuable, candidates with strong SWG engineering backgrounds will stand out.

Position Summary: Threat Implementation Engineer

The Security Transition and Integration Team is seeking a Threat Implementation Engineer to support cybersecurity deployments and lifecycle refresh initiatives. This role involves delivering new security systems for high-profile projects and upgrading legacy hardware/software to mitigate risks associated with end-of-life technologies.

  • Collaborate with engineering and architecture teams to adopt new technologies and improve service delivery.
  • Maintain asset tracking, inventory systems, and compliance documentation.

  • Support change activities, including after-hours deployments when necessary.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience with threat platforms (Skyhigh SWG, F5 SSLO, Trellix FireEye).
  • Strong engineering background in deploying and managing security appliances.
