Meet the team:

The Dexcom IT Department is expanding its OT cybersecurity program by adding a Sr. Staff Cybersecurity Engineer (Architect) to guide technical teams and collaborators in establishing and implementing an OT security program to secure Dexcom’s operational technology (OT) environment. The position will work closely with the OT Security team, Manufacturing (Ops), IT, and InfoSec to establish and mature the OT security control framework and supporting processes, services, and technology stack.

The OT security team will be responsible for securing a hybrid IT/OT computing environment that directly supports Dexcom’s manufacturing and operations functions across multiple manufacturing plants and facilities. The OT security function will design, implement, and manage OT security technology such as network/endpoint security, asset management, vulnerability scanning, and intrusion detection systems. The team will conduct security assessments, implement security controls, develop threat detection and response capabilities, conduct incident response and forensics activities, establish security policies and standards and support audit/compliance/certification activities.

• Zero Trust principles (a security approach that verifies every access request).
• Be a champion for security initiatives. You’ll explain why security matters, listen to feedback, and build support for projects.

Lead Technical Security Efforts

• Guide the team in spotting risks and designing solutions. For example, you might set up a system to limit who can access our control networks.
• Mentor others on implementing security tools and processes, balancing tech and communication skills.
• Design and implement Zero Trust controls, like continuous access checks and real-time monitoring.

Improve Security Practices

• Review our security methods and suggest upgrades. This includes using Zero Trust strategies, like giving users only the access they need.
• Manage small projects to enhance our security tools and processes.

Handle Security Tools and Systems

• Take charge of our security tech, keeping it running smoothly and fixing issues fast.
• Lead the team through service disruptions, figure out what went wrong, and put fixes in place.

Document and Train

• Create clear guides—like how-to manuals and system diagrams—so everyone understands our security setup.
• Ensure your teammates know how to use these guides and feel confident with them.

Stay Compliant and Prepared

• Help us follow security rules and get ready for audits. We use standards like ISO 27001
• Build plans to keep our systems running during emergencies.

Keep Learning

• Know the latest on OT security trends and threats. You’ll help us stay ahead of risks.

What makes you successful:

• 7+ years of experience in a security engineering role.
