What Makes You Stand Out

You are a seasoned cybersecurity professional with a strong background in digital forensics and incident response (DFIR), and incident management. You thrive in a dynamic and client-focused consulting environment, where you can tackle complex cybersecurity challenges. You are skilled at mitigating risks and making well-informed decisions, even in high-pressure scenarios.

You have a demonstrated ability to manage multiple cybersecurity incidents effectively. Your experience includes coordinating incident response efforts, working with cross-functional teams, and external stakeholders including insurance carriers and legal counsel. You strive to consistently deliver quality based client results and ensure a timely resolution while minimizing downtime.

How You'll Make An Impact

As a Principal Engagement Lead, you will be responsible for leading multiple active cybersecurity engagements, interacting with clients, cyber insurers, and legal counsel. Your expertise will guide scoping calls, and you will collaborate closely with other Engagement Leads and Forensic Consultants on our team to ensure high quality service and resolution on active client matters.

Your Role In Action

• Lead and oversee active client-facing incident response engagements, working closely with other team members to guide clients through the entire incident response lifecycle from detection to recovery.
• Conduct scoping calls with clients to define the incident scope, objectives, and expectations of each engagement.
• Work closely with other Engagement Leads and Forensic Consultants to ensure effective coordination of resources and expertise on client matters.
• Build and cultivate strong client relationships based on trust, open communication, and collaborative problem-solving.
• Provide well-informed solutions that go beyond immediate client challenges to achieve long-term security goals.
• Communicate advanced cybersecurity concepts both internally and externally and produce clear and concise verbal and written reports detailing incident findings, and analysis.
• Actively knowledge share with team members cultivating a culture of continuous learning, and stay up to date on industry trends, emerging threats, and best practices.
• Provide after-hours (on-call / weekend rotational) support as required to address critical incidents and maintain continuous coverage.

Your Expertise

Expertise in all these areas is not required, but you should be excited by the opportunity to learn new things and comfortable with working with other team members to expand your knowledge base and experience. We at Surefire Cyber invite you to apply even if you do not feel you have mastery in all the requirements listed on the job description and welcome a further discussion.
