Senior Vulnerability Operations

This is a hybrid role (3 days in office / 2 days remote).

About your team:

We seek a Senior Vulnerability Operations professional to lead and execute our vulnerability management program. The ideal candidate has deep expertise across all types of vulnerabilities (infrastructure, application, cloud, container, endpoint) and can drive remediation strategies through scalable, automated, and measurable processes.

This role requires a strategic thinker with hands-on capability who can lead vulnerability lifecycle processes — from detection and triage to reporting, tracking, and governance.

What will be your responsibilities within IBKR:

• Own and manage the end-to-end vulnerability management lifecycle: discovery, assessment, prioritization, remediation tracking, and closure
• Build and maintain vulnerability dashboards, metrics, and executive reports using tools such as Power BI, Tableau, or native scanner dashboards and products
• Consolidate vulnerability data from multiple sources (e.g., SCA, SAST, DAST, Tenable, Rapid7, container scanners, cloud-native tools, and products such as Orca, Wiz, etc.) to present a unified risk view
• Perform vulnerability correlation, de-duplication, and tagging (e.g., based on business units, asset owners, criticality)
• Collaborate with IT, DevOps, Cloud, Business, and Application teams/owners to drive timely remediation and verify risk mitigation
• Track vulnerability SLAs, generate remediation tickets, and manage exceptions where applicable
• Define and improve processes for asset inventory reconciliation, especially across on-prem, cloud, containers, and shadow IT
• Implement and improve automated integrations (e.g., CMDB, SIEM, ITSM tools like ServiceNow) for vulnerability data enrichment and remediation workflows
• Stay updated on the vulnerability threat landscape (CVEs, zero-days, exploitability trends, etc.)
• Participate in audits and compliance initiatives (e.g., ISO 27001, NIST, PCI-DSS) and provide evidence related to vulnerability management

Which skills are required:

• 6 to 10 years of experience in cybersecurity, with at least 4 years focused on vulnerability management

  • Operating systems (Windows, Linux, macOS)
  • Applications (web, APIs, databases)
  • Cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP)
  • Containers and Kubernetes
  • Network infrastructure and IoT/OT (preferred)
• Experience with vulnerability scanning tools such as:
  • Qualys, Tenable Nessus, Rapid7 InsightVM/Nexpose
  • AWS Inspector, Azure Defender, Prisma Cloud, Aqua, Anchore, Wiz, Orca
  • Snyk, Black Duck, Veracode, SonarQube (for application security)
• Strong experience with:
  • Data correlation and reporting (Excel, Power BI, or other BI tools)
  • Asset tagging and inventory management (ServiceNow CMDB, Lansweeper, etc.)
  • ITSM ticketing systems (ServiceNow, Jira, Remedy)
  • Scripting or automation tools (Python, PowerShell, APIs, Splunk queries) highly preferred
• Familiarity with CVE, CVSS, CISA KEVs, EPSS, and exploitability frameworks
• Strong understanding of security operations, patching cycles, and incident response workflows
• Knowledge of compliance frameworks like NIST, CIS Controls, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, SOC 2

Preferred Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Information Systems, or equivalent experience
• Certifications such as CISSP, CISM, GIAC GCIH, CompTIA Security+, or OSCP highly desired and definitely add an edge
