What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an associate engineering manager, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Associate Engineering Manager, you need a solid background in engineering principles, experience leading projects, and typically a relevant degree in engineering or a related field. Familiarity with project management tools (like Jira or Asana), version control systems (such as Git), and sometimes Agile certifications is highly valued. Strong communication, leadership, and problem-solving skills help in motivating teams and managing stakeholder expectations. These skills and qualities are essential for ensuring project success, fostering team development, and delivering high-quality engineering outcomes.

What are the primary challenges faced by an associate engineering manager when transitioning from an individual contributor role?

One of the main challenges Associate Engineering Managers encounter during this transition is balancing technical responsibilities with new leadership duties. Instead of focusing solely on coding or technical tasks, you will need to prioritize mentoring, project management, and facilitating team collaboration. This shift often requires developing strong communication skills and the ability to delegate effectively while still staying engaged with technical decisions. Navigating these changes successfully can set the foundation for further leadership opportunities.

What is an associate engineering manager?

Associate Engineering Managers are early-career leaders who support engineering teams by overseeing projects, coordinating team members, and helping deliver technical solutions. They typically assist senior engineering managers by handling daily operations, tracking project progress, and facilitating communication between engineers and other departments. This role often serves as a stepping stone to higher management positions and requires both technical expertise and strong leadership skills.

Job description

Work with a Top 20 CPA and advisory firm that Accounts for Anything.  Aprio has 40 U.S. office locations, as well as international office locations and more than 3,200 team members that speak 60+ languages across the globe.  By bringing together proven expertise, deep understanding, and strategic foresight for fast-growing industries, Aprio ensures clients are prepared for wherever life or business may take them. Discover a top-rated culture, vast growth opportunities and your next big career move with Aprio.

Join Aprio's Information Technology team and you will help clients maximize their opportunities. Aprio is a progressive, fast-growing firm looking for a Senior Cybersecurity Engineer to join their dynamic team.
 
Aprio's Cybersecurity Engineering team builds and operates the controls that make the firm defensible: identity, network segmentation, cloud security baselines, endpoint, monitoring, encryption, and vulnerability management. The Senior Cybersecurity Engineer is the senior individual contributor on that team - the engineer who takes a control domain from "documented" to "running cleanly in production," sets the standard for how it's done, and pulls the Mid and Associate engineers up with them. This is a hands-on engineering role that also leads cross-team initiatives.

This position supports U.S. Government engagements that may involve Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and requires access to exportcontrolled technical data. In accordance with CUI and U.S. export control regulations, this position is limited to 'U.S. persons' (including U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, and certain protected individuals) as defined in 22 C.F.R. 120.62. These requirements are only tied to this specific job posting. We are an equal opportunity employer and all Aprio employment decisions are made in accordance with applicable laws.

What You'll Do:
  • You will own the operational health of one or two engineering domains, lead cross-team initiatives that touch multiple control areas, and design the patterns the rest of the team executes against.
  • You're the engineer who can take a tool from "purchased" to "deployed, tuned, and instrumented," the partner Cloud Ops and Identity call when they need a security pattern that actually works, and the senior who makes the Mid and Associate engineers better through pairing, code review, and clear standards.
  • You'll also be a senior voice in architecture and decision conversations alongside the Principal Engineer and the Manager.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Domain ownership: Own the operational health of one or two engineering domains (identity, network/segmentation, cloud security baselines, monitoring/logging, encryption/key management, endpoint, vulnerability management, configuration management). Keep them measurably healthy and improving.
  • Cross-team initiatives: Lead initiatives that span Security, IT, Identity, Cloud Operations, and delivery teams - controlled rollouts, control set hardening, tool migrations. Land them without breaking production.
  • Architecture and standards: Design new control patterns and reference architectures. Write the decision records, runbooks, and standards the team executes against and the auditors review.
  • Controlled rollouts: Lead the end-to-end deployment of new control sets (e.g., bringing a new EDR online, hardening a new cloud account, standing up new logging pipelines) - pilot, measure, expand, document.
  • Mentorship: Pair with Mid and Associate engineers, run design reviews, give substantive code/config review, and grow the next tier. Quality of output from less senior engineers is part of your scope.
  • Operational partnership: Be the senior partner Cloud Ops, Identity, IT Service Management, GRC, and the SOC call when they need security engineering input. Solve problems with them, not at them.
  • Detection/response engineering support: Partner with Detection Engineering and the SOC on logging coverage, telemetry quality, and the engineering pieces of response (privileged access tooling, isolation capabilities, evidence capture).
  • Evidence and audit readiness: Produce control evidence and architecture documentation that holds up under audit and peer review. Keep your domains' evidence map current.
  • Automation: Push toward repeatable, codified controls (IaC, policy-as-code, automated evidence collection) instead of one-off manual work.
What Success Looks Like:

First 30-60 days: You can operate your priority domains safely on Aprio's tooling, you've assessed current control posture, and you've published a prioritized remediation backlog for at least one domain.

By 90 days: You're leading at least one cross-team initiative, you've published or substantially revised at least one architecture pattern or decision record, and you're an active mentor to the Mid and Associate engineers.

By 6-12 months: Your domains have measurably improved control health (less drift, cleaner evidence, faster remediation, fewer escalations). At least one controlled rollout has landed cleanly. Less senior engineers on the team are visibly better because of how you work with them.

Required Qualifications:
  • 5+ years in security engineering, with hands-on responsibility for implementing controls across identity, network, cloud, endpoint, and/or monitoring.
  • Strong fundamentals in IAM, network segmentation, encryption / key management, and centralized logging / monitoring.
  • Experience with at least one major cloud platform (Azure, AWS, GCP) in a security-engineering capacity.
  • Ability to produce clear architecture documentation, runbooks, and decision records that hold up under audit and peer review.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication; able to explain tradeoffs across Security, IT, and delivery audiences in plain language.
  • Comfortable mentoring less senior engineers and owning quality-of-output for one or more domains.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Regulated-environment experience (CMMC, NIST 800-171, NIST 800-53, FedRAMP-aligned, SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI).
  • Infrastructure-as-code experience (Terraform, Bicep, Pulumi) and policy-as-code (Sentinel, OPA).
  • Security tooling integration experience (SIEM, EDR, vulnerability scanning, IAM, secrets management).
  • Industry certifications (one or more): CISSP, CCSP, GIAC (e.g., GCED, GPEN, GCWN), AZ-500, AWS Security Specialty.
  • Experience supporting a SOC's detection/response engineering needs.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Cybersecurity, or related field - or equivalent applicable years of experience
$100,000 - $125,000 a year
The salary range for this opportunity is stated above. As such, an actual salary may fall closer to one or the other end of the range, and in certain circumstances, may wind up being outside of the listed salary range. 
The application window is anticipated to close on July 27th and may be extended as needed.
