EXOS CYBER
is the on-site owner of cybersecurity delivery for our Evansville, Indiana client environment. You are the person in the building: the day-to-day security authority the client's leadership and IT staff turn to, the technical escalation point for the analysts and engineers supporting the environment, and the bridge between what our SOC sees remotely and what is actually happening on the ground. When something needs a decision or a plan, it comes to you. Beyond running operations, you set the direction. You own the client's security roadmap, translate risk into business-language recommendations that get funded, and lead a small team of EXOS cybersecurity professionals with a hands-on, mentor-first style. This is a senior, player-coach role designed for someone with 8+ years in cybersecurity (including 2+ years leading people or programs) who is ready to run a real-world security program end to end, on site, inside an environment that matters to the community it serves. Serve as the on-site cybersecurity lead and primary point of contact for the Evansville client. Own the relationship with client leadership and IT staff, run the recurring security cadence (weekly operational syncs, monthly reporting, quarterly roadmap reviews), and make sure the client always knows where they stand and what comes next. Lead and develop the EXOS cybersecurity team supporting the environment: set priorities, assign work, coach analysts and engineers, run regular one-on-ones and performance conversations, and build a clear growth path for each team member in partnership with the EXOS Cyber leadership team. Own the client's security program and roadmap. Assess the environment against any compliance and regulatory controls and, where applicable, CJIS and other regulatory requirements; identify gaps; and drive a prioritized, plan that moves the client forward each quarter with measurable outcomes. Serve as the senior technical escalation point for confirmed incidents in the environment, including but not limited to ransomware, business email compromise, account takeover, lateral movement, and data exfiltration. Lead scoping and impact assessment, containment through the EDR platform, identity isolation and credential rotation in the identity platform, eradication and recovery guidance, evidence preservation, root-cause analysis, and client communication through resolution. Coordinate with the EXOS SOC and MDR partners on detection and response for the environment. Review escalations, confirm the environment-specific context the remote team does not have, and close the loop so tuning, coverage gaps, and lessons learned make it back into detections and playbooks. Lead vulnerability and exposure management for the environment: run the scanning cadence, work directly with client system owners and the EXOS IT team to get findings fixed, track risk acceptance decisions, and report progress in terms leadership understands. Partner with the client's IT staff and EXOS IT for identity and access management security for the environment, including MFA and conditional access posture, privileged account hygiene, on-boarding/off-boarding/current account reviews, and identity threat detection and response (ITDR). Plan and lead security projects and control implementations from design through documentation and handoff, including new tooling rollouts, hardening initiatives, and platform migrations, delivering on time and with the client informed at every step. Run and assist with the client's security awareness, phishing simulation, and tabletop exercise program, and lead incident response plan development, testing, and annual review with client leadership.
Author the client-facing narrative:
monthly security reports, post-incident reports, after-action reviews, and board- or council-ready summaries covering what we saw, what it means, and what we recommend, in language a non-technical decision maker can act on. Serve as a trusted advisor to client leadership on cybersecurity strategy, technology investments, cyber insurance requirements, and risk management, and stay current on emerging threats, vulnerabilities, and industry trends so the guidance you give stays sharp. Contribute back to
