Top Cybersecurity Jobs in Austin, TX

Design, build, and operate secure cloud services and AI agents for application security, including vulnerability triage, sandboxed testing, and remediation support. Implement infrastructure as code, isolation, least-privilege access, secrets management, and defenses against untrusted input and prompt injection. Evaluate AI accuracy, cost, and latency while collaborating with security teams, communicating risk, reviewing code, and mentoring engineers.

Staff software engineer responsible for designing, building, and operating production authorization services. The role develops role-based, attribute-based, and policy-driven access controls; leads security reviews; builds cloud-native microservices and APIs; establishes engineering standards, observability, and deployment practices; mentors engineers; and supports critical systems through on-call rotations.

Investigates and resolves enterprise cybersecurity incidents through alert triage, endpoint analysis, evidence collection, containment, eradication, and recovery. Develops incident-response automation, Python utilities, integrations, dashboards, CI/CD workflows, and infrastructure-as-code deployments. Administers CrowdStrike Falcon capabilities, improves detection and threat-intelligence workflows, maintains response playbooks and documentation, and coordinates with security stakeholders. Supports incident reviews, process improvement, mentoring, and knowledge sharing.

Coordinates complex cybersecurity incidents from triage through recovery and post-incident review. Leads cross-functional response efforts, containment decisions, stakeholder communications, executive reporting, metrics, governance, process improvement, and incident response maturity initiatives. Coaches team members, maintains response documentation and toolsets, and supports an off-hours on-call rotation.

Lead and execute adversary emulation and purple team operations to validate detections, logging, and response. Build repeatable MSV-based validation workflows, develop custom offensive tooling (C2, payloads, automation), test cloud and endpoint attack paths (AWS, GCP, Azure), and partner with Detection Engineering and Incident Response to convert findings into improved detections, documentation, and hunts.

Designs, implements, assesses, and improves cybersecurity and IT controls across cloud, SaaS, identity, infrastructure, and data environments. The role engineers assurance workflows, automation, evidence collection, and continuous monitoring; conducts control assessments; evaluates technical evidence; identifies cyber and IT risks; validates remediation; and delivers executive-ready reporting. It partners with Cybersecurity, IT, Finance, engineering, and business teams to strengthen governance, accountability, and risk-based decision-making.

Lead GM's Software Supply Chain Security function: translate strategy into execution, build and coach a high-performing team, own KPIs, and embed secure-by-design controls across source control, build pipelines, containers, SBOM, third-party software, and developer tooling while partnering with engineering, platform, cloud, procurement, and risk.

Design, build, and operate security-focused software, services, automation frameworks, APIs, and developer platforms. Integrate security controls into CI/CD and cloud-native workflows, implement identity and access-management capabilities, conduct secure code reviews and threat modeling, and maintain security telemetry systems. Collaborate with engineering, security, and compliance teams, support incident response, translate emerging threats into engineering requirements, and mentor engineers on secure coding and architecture.

Designs and develops IAM and security software, automation, APIs, and microservices. Integrates security into cloud and CI/CD environments, conducts code reviews and threat modeling, monitors security events, supports incident response, and advises teams on identity architecture and best practices. Requires extensive IAM administration, programming, cloud, containerization, and secure-coding experience.
