Welcome to Hytrol Careers
Overview We are seeking a Senior Cybersecurity Analyst to lead the execution of our cybersecurity initiatives while remaining hands-on in day-to-day security operations. This role is responsible for driving cybersecurity governance, risk management, and continuous improvement across the organization, while actively working within security tools, responding to incidents, and supporting operational teams.

Why This Role? This position offers the opportunity to lead cybersecurity execution in a stable, growing organization while staying deeply technical and hands-on.

Conduct vulnerability assessments, risk reviews, and remediation tracking
Execute day-to-day cybersecurity governance activities, including policy enforcement, documentation, and audit support
Support compliance efforts by collecting evidence, validating controls, and addressing identified gaps
Assist with third-party and vendor security reviews
Operational Integration
Partner with IT infrastructure, cloud, and application teams to ensure secure configurations and change practices
Work closely with ITSM and Service Desk teams to ensure security incidents are properly logged, escalated, and resolved
Participate in change reviews to assess security impact and recommend appropriate controls
Awareness & Reporting
Support security awareness initiatives and incident trend analysis
Provide regular security metrics and updates to IT leadership
Qualifications Required
5–8 years of experience in cybersecurity or infrastructure security
Hands-on experience with endpoint protection, network security, identity controls, and security monitoring tools
Working knowledge of security frameworks and best practices (e.g., NIST, ISO 27001)

Preferred
Security certifications (CISSP, Security+, CEH, CCSP)
ITIL Foundation or familiarity with ITSM frameworks
ERP experience, preferably Epicor Kinetic
Experience supporting hybrid or cloud environments
