Job Description
A pharmaceutical company based out of Boston is seeking a hands-on Cybersecurity Engineer supporting day-to-day security operations within a regulated enterprise environment. This role joins an existing team of 4 and is focused on execution, helping relieve workload so senior engineers can focus on complex initiatives. The engineer will partner closely with the CSOC to investigate, triage, and remediate endpoint-related incidents, with a heavy emphasis on DLP (≈50% of workload) and the remainder across endpoint security, incident response, and vulnerability management. This is not a strategy or leadership role — success is measured by responsiveness, accuracy, and ability to independently close tickets and execute remediation.

• Tools in use: CrowdStrike, Microsoft Intune, Forcepoint (possible future move to Proofpoint)

• Prior SOC experience
• Strong, hands-on experience with:
o CrowdStrike (EDR/XDR) o Microsoft Intune

• Proven experience: o Responding to day-to-day security incidents
o Closing security tickets independently
o Implementing mitigation and containment actions
• Experience working in a regulated / compliance-driven environment o GxP exposure required (training or prior hands-on experience)
