Sail Point is looking for a motivated Vulnerability Management Analyst to join our growing Cybersecurity team. In this role, you will be at the heart of our security operations, responsible for protecting Sail Point's production environments from misconfigurations and software vulnerabilities. You will ensure our products meet the highest standards of security and trust by managing the complete lifecycle of vulnerabilities across our complex, cloud-native infrastructure.

As a key member of our threat and vulnerability management team, you will work closely with cross-functional partners in IT, DevOps, and Engineering to reduce our organizational risk. This is a challenging and impactful role where you can grow your skills and contribute directly to our security posture.

What You'll Do (Core Responsibilities):

• Analyze & Prioritize:

Triage and assess vulnerabilities discovered in our cloud infrastructure, containerized environments, enterprise infrastructure, and applications, using a risk-based framework that goes beyond standard CVSS scores.

• Cloud Security:

Partner with DevOps and Engineering to identify and remediate vulnerabilities and misconfigurations in our AWS environment.

• Drive Remediation:

Act as a key liaison, explaining risks, identifying dependencies, and providing the necessary context to help teams remediate vulnerabilities efficiently.

• Automate & Improve:

Contribute to the continuous improvement of our program by helping automate data ingestion, reporting, and ticketing system integrations (e.g., Jira, Slack) using scripting languages like Python or PowerShell.

• Report & Comply:

Develop metrics to report on the health of the vulnerability management program and provide evidence to support compliance and audit needs for frameworks like SOC2, ISO 27001, and FedRAMP.

• Threat Intelligence:

Maintain knowledge of the current threat landscape, including new attack techniques and actively exploited vulnerabilities, to inform our prioritization strategy.

What You'll Bring (Key Requirements):

• Cloud Infrastructure Experience:

Strong, hands-on experience securing cloud environments, particularly AWS. You should have a technical understanding of core services like EC2, and container technologies such as Kubernetes and Docker.

• Vulnerability Management Experience:

2-4 years of experience in vulnerability management, product security, or a similar cybersecurity role.

• Technical Acumen:

A solid grasp of common product security issues (e.g., OWASP Top 10, SSRF, Injection flaws) and how they manifest in modern, multi-cloud architectures.

• Automation Skills:

Intermediate scripting ability (e.g., Python, PowerShell) to help automate security workflows, reporting, and data analysis.

• Collaboration & Influence:

A proven ability to build strong partnerships and communicate effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders in a matrixed organization.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Past experience in penetration testing, product security, or the security research community.

• Certifications such as AWS Certified Security

• Specialty, CISSP, CISA, or CySA+.

90-Day Milestones (The "Contribution" Phase):

• Operate with minimal oversight on daily tasks, fully managing the day-to-day vulnerability lifecycle for your areas of responsibility.

• Act as a natural escalation point for junior analysts, providing mentorship and helping to resolve challenges with remediation teams.

• Confidently engage with engineering teams to work through remediation problems and ensure operational flow.

6-Month Milestones (The "Performance" Phase):

• Become a strong, effective contributor who actively identifies and suggests areas for process improvement.

• Take the lead on an internal team project, such as revamping vulnerability metrics or automating a reporting process.

• Demonstrate a deep understanding of our risk-based approach by prioritizing vulnerabilities.

12-Month Milestones (The "Ownership" Phase):

• Solidly own all assigned tasks and responsibilities, running with them from start to finish with minimal supervision.
