Job Overview

Nexigen is seeking a Senior Cybersecurity Engineer to serve as a hands-on technical leader across digital forensics, penetration testing, and compliance, while also supporting the sales team as a technical resource for security-related client engagements.

The candite must be comfortable wearing multiple hats at the same time.

Key Responsibilities

Digital Forensics

Lead forensic investigations of security incidents, including evidence acquisition, chain-of-custody documentation, and root-cause analysis.
Analyze compromised systems, network traffic, and logs to reconstruct attack timelines and identify indicators of compromise.
Produce clear, defensible incident reports for technical, legal, and executive audiences.

Penetration Testing

Plan and execute penetration tests and vulnerability assessments across networks, applications, and cloud environments.
Simulate real-world attack techniques to identify exploitable weaknesses before adversaries do.
Deliver findings with prioritized, actionable remediation guidance for internal teams and clients.

Compliance

Support audits and certification efforts against frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST, HIPAA, or PCI DSS as applicable.
Maintain security policies, control documentation, and evidence for internal and external audits.
Track remediation of compliance gaps and advise stakeholders on regulatory risk.

Consulting

Provide support to internal teams on cyber security related topics
Provide support to Nexigen’s clients on cyber security engagements

Sales Support

Act as a technical subject-matter expert during client and prospect calls, translating security capabilities into business value.

Partner with the sales team to scope security engagements and set realistic client expectations.

Qualifications

5+ years of experience in cyber security, with direct experience in forensics and penetration testing.
Batchlor’s degree in Cyber Security or related Computer Science or Information Systems degree
Working knowledge of at least one major compliance framework (SOC 2, ISO 27001, CMMC, NIST 800-171, NIST 800-53).
Hands-on experience with forensic and pen testing tools (e.g., EnCase, FTK, Autopsy, Burp Suite, Metasploit, Nmap).
Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain technical risk to non-technical audiences.
Strong understanding of advanced networking (802.1x, Radius Configurations, MFA) and secure network architecture.
Sound judgment and discretion when handling sensitive investigations and client data.
Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to stay calm and methodical under incident-response pressure.
Collaborative team player who works well across engineering, legal, and sales stakeholders.
Self-motivated with the ability to manage multiple engagements and priorities independently.
Client-facing presence and comfort building trust and rapport with prospects and customers.
Solves problems individually and in a team setting.
Comfort engaging directly with clients or prospects in a pre-sales or advisory capacity.
Relevant certifications preferred (not required): GCFA, GCFE, OSCP, CEH, CISSP, or CISA.
