About University at Albany:
The University at Albany is a Carnegie-classified Research 1 institution driven by academic excellence, pioneering research and scientific discovery, and service to community. UAlbany's world-class faculty experts and approximately 17,500 students are creating new knowledge in fields such as artificial intelligence, semiconductor engineering, atmospheric and environmental sciences, cybersecurity, public health, public administration and social welfare while deepening our understanding of our world through scholarship and creative activity in the social sciences and humanities. As one of the most diverse public research institutions in the nation, the University is a national leader in public engagement, educational equity and social mobility. For over 180 years, UAlbany has molded bright, curious and engaged students and launched them toward success.
Located in Albany, New York, New York State's capital, the University is convenient to Boston, New York City, and the Adirondacks.
Job Description:
Join the University at Albany's Information Technology Services (ITS) as an Information Security Analyst/Engineer and help protect critical infrastructure, institutional data, and research assets in a fast-moving, research-intensive environment at a Carnegie R1 research institution.
We're looking for someone to join a small, senior team that operates with real ownership. You'll work directly with the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and partner with network, systems, and application teams. You'll handle modern incident response and network security on a stack that includes Microsoft Defender extended detection and response (XDR), Palo Alto and Cloudflare.
You'll investigate and respond to incidents end-to-end, build automation playbooks that make the next response faster, and manage firewall policy for an institution that takes security seriously. You'll also handle day-to-day triage and ticket work - but the expectation is that you're building systems that reduce that burden over time, not just clearing the queue.
This is an excellent opportunity if you want breadth - incident response (IR), network defense, automation, and engineering - without being siloed into one function.
