Position Summary

The Lead IT Systems & Security Engineer is a senior technical role and operational right hand to the SVP of Information Technology. This position is responsible for the design, implementation, and security of FEG's core IT infrastructure across 100+ corporate and field locations. The role owns the architecture and performance of servers, virtualization, networking, and identity systems, and leads the Company's cybersecurity program, including endpoint protection, patch management, vulnerability remediation, and incident response.

Lead the design and maintenance of network infrastructure (LAN/WAN, VLANs, routing, firewalls, VPNs, wireless access points) across multi-site operations.
Own FEG's cybersecurity program: endpoint protection, patch management, vulnerability scanning and remediation, MFA, and security policy enforcement.
Monitor security alerts and system health across environments; lead investigation, containment, and remediation of incidents.
Develop and maintain backup, high-availability, and disaster recovery strategies; regularly test failover and recovery procedures.
Evaluate, recommend, and implement new tools, platforms, and architecture improvements to strengthen system reliability, scalability, and security posture.
Serve as a senior technical escalation point for complex infrastructure, network, and security issues raised by the Helpdesk and Implementation teams.

Establish technical standards, configuration baselines, and security policies; author and maintain infrastructure and security documentation and playbooks.
Manage relationships with infrastructure and security vendors, including evaluating solutions, negotiating support agreements, and coordinating escalations.
Mentor and provide technical guidance to Technology Support Specialists and Implementation staff on systems and security best practices.
Support compliance efforts related to payment systems, data protection, and industry security requirements (e.g., PCI DSS) as applicable to FEG environments.
Support Google Workspace and other core internal platforms from an infrastructure and security standpoint.
Travel to field and corporate locations as needed for infrastructure deployments, security assessments, and remediation.
Partner directly with the SVP of IT on IT infrastructure roadmap, technology strategy, vendor evaluation, and organizational planning initiatives.
Manage and prioritize concurrent infrastructure and security projects across a high-growth, multi-site environment, including new location buildouts as FEG expands its footprint.
Participate in an on-call rotation to support 24/7/365 service availability across all FEG locations; serve as the senior technical escalation point for critical infrastructure and security incidents outside business hours.
Support cyber insurance readiness, security assessments, and audit requests, including responding to insurer questionnaires, maintaining required documentation, and coordinating remediation of findings.
