The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Bristol Myers Squibb is hiring a Security Engineer in Des Moines, IA.

• Role description

  Bristol Myers Squibb is the kind of place where a junior's question can change the technology roadmap, and we want a Security Engineer who asks them. This senior role pairs a $84,000 - $124,000 salary with hands-on ownership, a collaborative team, and clear opportunities to level up.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Translate the proudly-imperfect Metasploit outage into fixes that make the next Des Moines launch dull
  • Automate build, test, and deployment pipelines for faster release cycles
  • Refactor the technology module Bristol Myers Squibb has been afraid to touch
  • Catch the entrepreneurial Metasploit regression in staging before it ever reaches Des Moines customers
  • Keep Bristol Myers Squibb's NIST Cybersecurity Framework dependencies patched before the CVEs become incidents
  • Own the IDS/IPS release that Des Moines leadership has circled on the calendar

  What You'll Bring

  • Resilience measured across 5 years of technology cycles
  • At least 7 years building expertise within the technology space
  • A solid foundation in IDS/IPS, refined over 7+ years
  • Metrics-driven problem-solving that doesn't wait for permission
  • Comfortable presenting ideas to stakeholders at every level
  • Strong multitasking ability without sacrificing quality

  Bristol Myers Squibb is the unpretentious IA company that built its name on technology work nobody else wanted to do properly. Politics die fast at Bristol Myers Squibb because we put the awkward stuff on the table early.
