You’re the engineer who can pick up a control implementation, deliver it, document it, and hand it off cleanly to operations. You’ll start to grow real depth in a domain you care about — identity, endpoint, vulnerability, cloud security, or logging — and you’ll be a working partner to Associate engineers on day-to-day execution. ## Key Responsibilities Project ownership: Take small-to-medium engineering projects end-to-end — scoping, design partnership with a Senior, build, test, deploy, document, and hand off to operations. Deliver them on time without surprises. Control implementation and operation: Configure and operate security controls across identity, network, cloud, endpoint, logging/monitoring, encryption/key management, and vulnerability management. Execute against approved patterns and standards. Domain depth: Develop deepening expertise in at least one control domain (e.g., endpoint, identity, vulnerability management, cloud security, IAM, monitoring). Become a real go-to on that domain for the team. Vulnerabil
