Top Cybersecurity Jobs in Boston, MA

Lead design and implementation of a multi-standard compliance program (ISO/SOC2/HIPAA). Manage risk assessments, maintain risk register, author security policies, drive cross-functional remediation, support incident response and customer compliance inquiries, and integrate controls into engineering workflows to balance compliance with velocity.

Define and drive the multi-year roadmap for audit logging, SIEM integration, and unified security visibility. Architect high-throughput, fault-tolerant Go/gRPC pipelines (Kafka/Flink), build customer-facing security dashboards and integrations, ensure compliance-grade immutable logs, set org-wide logging and observability standards, partner across platform teams, and mentor senior engineers while authoring RFCs.

Lead and evolve the insider threat program by engineering detection, automating investigation workflows, tuning UEBA/SIEM/DLP/UAM/SOAR detection content, conducting threat hunting and DFIR, collaborating with HR/Legal, and using data analytics (e.g., Pandas) to investigate anomalous activity and reduce internal risk.

Lead threat modeling and risk management for DigitalOcean's virtualization stack. Build frameworks and rubrics to assess hypervisor risk, propose and implement defense-in-depth mitigations, collaborate with engineering teams on remediation, mentor teams on secure design, and help oversee vulnerability management and security guidance.

Lead technical design and enforcement of network security for global edge, backbone, and datacenter environments. Perform threat modeling, protocol analysis, DDoS mitigation, security automation, tooling, and incident response. Partner with network teams to integrate controls, telemetry, and IaC-based validation, and mentor engineers while driving security reviews and best practices adoption.

Design and build real-time security detection engines and streaming analytics using Apache Flink and Kafka. Develop high-performance security APIs and microservices in Go and Node.js, architect Kubernetes-based security solutions, and build petabyte-scale data pipelines. Lead technical design, collaborate with security teams, and mentor junior engineers.

Lead and mentor a multidisciplinary engineering team to build and deliver scalable security products (identity management, threat detection, data protection). Drive technical roadmap, manage delivery timelines and risks, enforce security best practices and operational excellence, and own recruitment, performance, and career development for the team.

Lead assessment and mitigation of security risks in the virtualization stack. Build threat models, rubrics, and defenses; partner with kernel, virtualization, and provisioning teams to design and implement mitigations; mentor engineers, manage vulnerability backlog, and promote security best practices across product teams.
