About The Role
The Vulnerability Management Engineer plays a critical role in ensuring the security of our systems by managing and mitigating vulnerabilities. Key responsibilities include reviewing vulnerability scanning reports, assessing severity, and triaging vulnerabilities, along with efficiently managing Jira tickets to facilitate timely remediation or mitigation. This role requires utilizing tools such as Qualys, JFrog Xray, and Wiz to conduct vulnerability detection and response, and implementing a risk-based prioritization method for effective management.

The role involves investigating vulnerability alerts, assessing their impact, and calculating severity scores based on attack complexity. Additional duties include maintaining scanning tools, reviewing CVEs for potential risk exceptions, and guiding teams on security best practices and patch management standards. Flexibility to work across different time zones is crucial for effective global collaboration and system security.
