Position Summary

We are seeking an ICS Security Engineer to join our Security team as a subject matter expert and advisor on securing industrial control systems (ICS) and operational technology (OT) within pharma-manufacturing environments. You will focus on establishing security standards, assisting in the integration of secure architectures, and enhancing visibility into ICS/OT environments across manufacturing and lab processes. This role requires strong expertise in ICS/OT security, including architecture, network protocols, and industry-specific regulatory requirements. You will work closely with multiple teams to implement security best practices, ensure compliance, and drive security initiatives across our facilities.

As a hands-on engineer, you will consult with various departments to develop and implement security controls, integrate security into ICS/OT projects, and provide technical guidance to optimize manufacturing and automation processes securely. Your focus will be on advising manufacturing, automation, and IT teams while addressing unique security challenges associated with ICS/OT environments in highly regulated industries.

Responsibilities

ICS Security Standards & Secure Architecture:

  • Develop and implement security standards, procedures, and best practices for ICS/OT environments.
  • Provide guidance on secure deployment models and architecture patterns for ICS networks, manufacturing, and lab processes.
  • Facilitate threat modeling and risk assessments for ICS systems, recommending security controls to mitigate identified risks.

Security Engineering & Observability in ICS/OT:

  • Improve observability and monitoring of ICS/OT environments, collaborating with automation and IT teams to enhance visibility into security events and incidents.
  • Design and implement security controls for ICS networks, including SCADA, PLCs, and other industrial devices.
  • Assist in developing workflows and playbooks for incident response and security operations related to ICS/OT environments.

Cross-Functional Consulting & Collaboration:

  • Act as a security advisor to departments involved in manufacturing, automation, and ICS/OT, providing guidance on security best practices and regulatory compliance.
  • Work closely with the IT, manufacturing, and automation teams to ensure alignment with security policies and standards.
  • Collaborate with the broader security team to integrate ICS/OT security efforts into the overall security strategy.

Engagement & Continuous Improvement:

  • Engage with external entities, including industry groups and partners (e.g., MFG-ISAC, Bio-ISAC), to stay informed about evolving threats and meet customer security requirements.
  • Develop "secure by design" reference architectures and compensating controls for both new and legacy ICS/OT systems.
  • Stay current with the latest ICS/OT security practices, technologies, and regulations to continuously improve the security posture of manufacturing and lab environments.

Minimum Qualifications

  • Substantial experience in ICS/OT security, including network architecture, risk assessment, and regulatory compliance.
  • Deep understanding of ICS protocols (e.g., OPC, Modbus, BACnet) and standards (e.g., IEC 62443, Purdue Model).
  • Hands-on experience with ICS/OT security tools (e.g., SIEM, intrusion detection, vulnerability management).
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to advise technical and non-technical teams effectively.


Preferred Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in a related field (e.g., Electrical Engineering, Information Security) or equivalent work experience.
  • Experience with disruptive ICS technologies and secure integration in manufacturing settings.
  • Security certifications such as GIAC Global Industrial Cyber Security Professional (GICSP) or Certified SCADA Security Architect (CSSA).
  • Familiarity with regulatory requirements for ICS/OT environments in pharma-manufacturing (e.g., 21 CFR Part 11).
  • Familiarity with cloud integrations for ICS/OT telemetry and monitoring.
