Full Job Description

We are seeking a hands-on Network / Cybersecurity Engineer with a strong foundation in network security, threat detection, incident response, and advanced troubleshooting. The ideal candidate enjoys investigating suspicious activity, analyzing network traffic, managing next-generation security technologies, and strengthening security controls across both on-premises and cloud environments.

This role is particularly well suited for someone with experience supporting next-generation firewalls, network infrastructure, security monitoring, Zero Trust architectures, and cyber incident response.

Key Responsibilities

Continuously monitor security and network technologies—including SIEM, EDR, IDS/IPS, next-generation firewalls, and related security platforms—to identify suspicious, anomalous, or potentially malicious activity.
Analyze network traffic, firewall events, endpoint alerts, and other security telemetry to identify compromised devices, attempted exploitation, unauthorized activity, and emerging threats.
Conduct detailed investigations of security alerts and confirmed incidents, including root-cause analysis, containment, remediation, and incident response support.
Configure, manage, troubleshoot, and optimize next-generation firewall technologies and security policies to improve network protection and operational effectiveness.
Support the implementation and continuous improvement of Zero Trust security principles, network segmentation, access controls, and security best practices.
Perform proactive threat hunting to identify malicious activity or security weaknesses that may not have triggered existing detection mechanisms.
Assist with advanced troubleshooting across Layer 2 and Layer 3 networks, including routing, switching, VLANs, segmentation, firewall connectivity, and IPSec/VPN connectivity.
Document security alerts, investigations, troubleshooting activities, findings, and response actions within the organization's IT ticketing and case-management systems.
Ensure tickets contain accurate and meaningful technical information and are maintained through resolution.
Collaborate with cybersecurity, network, infrastructure, and other IT teams to resolve complex technical and security issues.
Participate in cybersecurity exercises, technical training, and knowledge-sharing activities to stay current with emerging threats, technologies, and defensive techniques.

Desired Skills & Experience

The strongest candidates will bring experience in several of the following areas; expertise in every technology is not required:

Hands-on network security engineering and troubleshooting
Next-generation firewall administration, particularly Palo Alto Networks/Panorama, Fortinet/FortiGate, SonicWall, or similar platforms
Incident response and investigation of potentially malicious network or endpoint activity
Network traffic analysis and identification of anomalous behavior
Zero Trust security concepts and implementation
SIEM, EDR, IDS/IPS, and security monitoring technologies
CrowdStrike Endpoint Protection or comparable EDR platforms
Firewall policy creation, review, and optimization
Layer 2/Layer 3 networking, including routing, switching, VLANs, and network segmentation
IPSec tunnels, VPNs, and secure network connectivity
On-premises and cloud cybersecurity principles and best practices
Strong technical troubleshooting and root-cause analysis
Experience working with IT ticketing and case-management systems
Ability to clearly communicate technical findings to security, network, and IT teams
Ability to independently investigate and resolve complex technical issues

Certifications & Background

Relevant education, professional experience, and industry certifications are valued. Certifications such as Security+, CCNA, PCNSE, or comparable networking/security credentials are particularly relevant but are not required.

What We're Looking For

We are looking for someone who combines a network engineer's troubleshooting mindset with a cybersecurity professional's focus on detection and defense. You should be comfortable digging into network traffic, firewall logs, alerts, and technical configurations to understand what is happening, determine whether it represents a security risk, and take the appropriate action.

Candidates who have grown from network infrastructure or firewall engineering into cybersecurity and incident response are strongly encouraged to apply.

Pay: $60.00 - $90.00 per hour
