Dartmouth College seeks a Senior Cybersecurity Engineer to own and mature the institution’s vulnerability management program, integrate threat intelligence into vulnerability prioritization and defensive operations, and leverage AI to accelerate both disciplines.

- Experience consuming and operationalizing threat intelligence from commercial platforms, ISACs, and open-source feeds.
- Experience with developing vulnerability management API integrations and automations.
- Demonstrated ability to drive remediation with stakeholders outside your direct reporting chain.
- Solid understanding of CVSS scoring, EPSS, KEV catalog usage, and risk-based prioritization.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in higher education, healthcare, or other environments with decentralized IT governance.
- Working knowledge of industry leading EDR, SIEM and Log Management platforms.
- Hands-on experience applying AI/ML tools to vulnerability management or threat intelligence workflows.
- Familiarity with AI-specific threat vectors.
- Familiarity with compliance frameworks: CMMC/NIST 800-171, HIPAA, GLBA, FERPA, ITAR/EAR.
- Experience with threat intelligence platforms (TIPs), STIX/TAXII, and MITRE ATT&CK framework mapping.
- Experience with external attack surface management (EASM) and cloud-native vulnerability assessment.
- Relevant certifications: GEVA, GCIH, GCTI, CTIA, CISSP, or equivalent.
