We are hiring a Senior Cyber Security Engineer to join the Cyber Security Engineering team at BCBST!
In this role, you'll operate as a hands-on security engineer with broad influence across the enterprise, embedding security into solution design, deployment, and modernization efforts.

You'll contribute across multiple areas including security tooling, cloud security, and emerging domains such as AI, helping the organization adopt new technologies safely and confidently.
This role is intentionally broad and dynamic. Success requires the ability to context switch, balance advisory and engineering responsibilities, and deliver practical, scalable solutions rather than theoretical guidance.
