Review repository history and code context in Git and GitHub to support remediation planning and verify corrective actions.
Document findings, decisions, remediation progress, and final disposition in a clear and audit-ready manner.
Coordinate with cross-functional stakeholders across a large engineering organization to maintain momentum on a backlog of security findings.
Evaluate factors such as credential type, privilege level, environment, and exposure scope to help prioritize response actions.
Validate that completed fixes fully address the identified issue and close findings with accurate reporting and supporting evidence.
Requirements

Strong scripting ability in at least two of the following: PowerShell, Bash, and Python.
Solid working knowledge of Git and GitHub, including collaboration with engineering teams on code-related remediation efforts.
Ability to work independently while managing multiple tasks in a short-term, project-focused setting.
