It & cybersecurity jobs in Massachusetts

About the role

You'll take ownership of information security and information systems, building the programs, policies, and team behind them. You'll lead security operations, compliance, and incident response, and work across the company so our systems, data, and people meet the standards we hold ourselves to. This is a foundational role: you're building the function from the ground up, not maintaining what's already there.

What you'll bring

• 7+ years of hands-on experience in information security, IT security, or a related field.
• Familiarity with common security and compliance frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST, GDPR, etc.).
• Strong understanding of modern IT infrastructure: cloud services, SaaS, access controls, security architecture.
• Excellent communication skills.
• You can translate complex security concepts for non-technical teams.
• Experience managing teams and driving cross-functional projects.
• Relevant certifications (e.g., CISSP, CISM, CompTIA Security+, ISO 27001 Lead Implementer).
• Exposure to secure software development practices (DevSecOps, secure SDLC, etc.).
• Experience in security operations and/or incident response.
• Experience in a startup or small company environment.
