  • Research vulnerabilities and remediation methods when additional investigation is required.
  • Install, update, patch, or remove software packages to remediate vulnerabilities.
  • Validate remediation activities and confirm vulnerabilities have been successfully addressed.
  • Identify and investigate false positives or findings that may not apply to specific systems.
  • Coordinate with application and business owners when remediation activities require downtime, reboot windows, or application validation.
  • Support change management processes and scheduled maintenance activities.
  • Document remediation efforts, remediation status, and outstanding issues.
  • Collaborate with vulnerability management, automation, and systems engineering teams to improve remediation processes.
  • Identify recurring remediation patterns that may be suitable for automation.
  • Troubleshoot Linux operating system issues encountered during remediation activities. 

Qualifications:

  • Ability to independently navigate and administer Linux operating systems.
  • Strong experience using Linux commands and utilities to investigate systems and troubleshoot issues.
  • Ability to identify installed software packages, versions, and system configuration information.
  • Understanding of Linux patching, package management, and system maintenance.
  • Ability to research vulnerabilities and determine appropriate remediation approaches.
  • Basic understanding of system security concepts and vulnerability remediation practices.
  • Ability to work independently and investigate technical issues without step-by-step guidance.
  • Strong analytical and troubleshooting capabilities.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills. 
Preferred Qualifications:

  • Previous experience supporting vulnerability management or security remediation programs.
  • Experience using vulnerability management platforms such as Tenable, Nessus, or similar technologies.
  • Experience with Linux security hardening and configuration remediation.
