As a Cybersecurity Analyst, you will play a pivotal role securing our clients’ infrastructure, data and software. Beyond helping just our clients, you will also make a huge impact and help society as a whole by contributing to our fast moving, passionate efforts to smartly improving and promoting cybersecurity best practices.
Fractional CISO is not a typical cybersecurity consulting firm. Instead of providing just technical support, we focus on delivering the best possible cybersecurity leadership. Our typical clients are medium sized tech firms with significant cybersecurity needs, but they’re not quite large enough yet to hire a full-time “C-level” senior security leader, like a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) or Chief Security Officer (CSO). We fill that gap with our “fractional” CISO consulting services and help guide our clients on their cybersecurity improvement programs.
In this position, you will work as a team with a vCISO client manager to provide cybersecurity leadership and program management directly to our clients. You will work with a wide range of companies across many industries to develop and deliver the components of a good cybersecurity management program, including:
The right candidate for this position will possess all of these traits:

While we value candidates with operational experience, this role is not the same as a Security Operations Center (SOC) analyst! This job does not focus on routine security tasks like monitoring logs, responding to security alerts, patching systems, or running vulnerability scans. If you have experience as a SOC analyst but are looking for a new challenge that will advance your career towards thoughtful cybersecurity leadership, this may be a great position for you!
We are committed to providing guidance and support to the right Cybersecurity Analyst candidate so they can accelerate their cybersecurity career. What we ask in return is that the candidate bring a passion for cybersecurity, a strong work ethic, and demonstrated excellence in their prior positions or coursework. We value diversity and believe that qualified candidates are just as likely to come from a non-traditional work or educational backgrounds.
Note: We genuinely appreciate it when candidates take the time to write a brief cover letter that explains their interest in the position and what attracted them to a career in cybersecurity!
We are open to sponsoring a H1-B visa for the right candidate.
