    Job Overview:

    We are seeking a highly motivated and detail-oriented GRC Technical Analyst with a strong background in technical incident response. The ideal candidate will help build and mature our security programs, focusing specifically on our wellness platform technology infrastructure, while also playing a key role in responding to and mitigating technical security incidents.

    Key Responsibilities:

    • Perform security risk assessments, including third-party and vendor risk management, to identify vulnerabilities and mitigate threats related to events, data handling, and technology infrastructure.
    • Conduct risk modeling and incident response exercises specific to live events, such as mitigating risks from public Wi-Fi, phishing during registration, and protecting sensitive users and clients data.
    • Serve as an escalation point for the Security team, leading the end-to-end incident response process from detection and analysis to containment, eradication, and recovery.
    • Assist technical security requirements into effective, actionable security policies, standards, and procedures.
    • Develop and report on key security metrics, including those related to incident response performance (e.g., detection time, resolution time), for management and governance committees.

    Skills and Qualifications:

    • A bachelor's degree in a technical field like Computer Science, Cybersecurity, or Information Technology is typically required.
    • Have a strong foundational knowledge of IT and cybersecurity principles, including security controls, networking concepts, and operating systems.
    • Skills in digital and network forensics for investigating data breaches and analyzing malware.
    • In-depth knowledge of major security frameworks (NIST, ISO) is critical.

    Preferred Experience:

    • 1 to 3 years of experience (or equivalent academic/lab/project work) in security, risk, or incident response
    • Hands-on exposure to security tools (SIEM, vulnerability scanners) and OWASP Top 10
    • Familiarity with NIST and ISO 27001 frameworks
    • Certifications such as CompTIA Security+, ISC2 CC, or GIAC are a plus
    • Experience documenting incidents or security findings clearly
