Carrières chez Cisco

Application window is expected to close by 04/10/2025.

Job posting may be removed earlier if the position is filled or if a sufficient number of applications are received.

The successful applicant will provide ownership of and be performing work in FedRAMP or IL-5 type environments, and therefore, must be a U.S. Person (i.e. U.S. citizen, U.S. national, lawful permanent resident, asylee, or refugee). This position may also perform work that the U.S. government has specified can only be performed by a U.S. citizen on U.S. soil.

Meet The Team

We are a centralized team that supports Cisco teams to ensure the technology we build is secure. We provide security services to Cisco and enjoy going deep in various security engineering areas. Your primary clients will be internal engineering teams. You will also partner with teams in Cisco to improve product security posture, support market access (e.g. SOC2, PCI) and respond to customer requests. 

Our security team is dynamic, hardworking, fun, and high-energy, but the work is done in a very casual environment that strongly encourages a work/life balance. Not only will you work alongside a team of skilled security researchers with a diverse spectrum of talents and experience levels, but you will also be interacting with a variety of engineering teams across Cisco. Cisco ASIG cultivates an environment where every individual's input and experience is valued. We prioritize training sessions and a mentor program surrounding you with the resources you will need to succeed. 

Your Impact

The Advanced Security Initiatives Group is seeking a Penetration Test Technical Engagement Manager to operate our penetration testing service. This internal client- facing role covers a broad range of activities focused on taking Cisco teams through third-party penetration tests. In this role, you’ll get to use your program/project management skills and security knowledge to run the program and continually mature the process, drive penetration testing engagements, and manage third-party vendors and budgets. You will partner with vendor teams and collaborate with internal engineering/product teams. You will use what we learn from pen tests to drive broad security improvements across Cisco.

Would you enjoy working with development engineers, product and engineering managers, security vendors, be an enabler for finding security flaws in critical systems, modeling prototype attacks that malicious actors might take advantage of, and crafting mitigations to thwart motivated and inventive adversaries? If you have a passion for computer security, enjoy solving exciting problems, and relish working with emerging technologies, Cisco wants you! Global ISPs, Fortune 500 companies, and world governments all depend on Cisco for critical infrastructure, and we want to guarantee that we keep delivering highly secured solutions to meet their needs.
