JD:

The Mobile Device Vulnerability Management & Configuration Compliance Engineer will partner

with internal stakeholders to design, validate, and operationalize an automated mobile device

vulnerability scanning and configuration compliance capability across enterprise-issued mobile

endpoints (iOS/iPadOS and Android). This role leads proof-of-technology (PoT) activities including

tool evaluation, architecture validation, security controls mapping, and pilot execution, and drives

full-scale implementation through integration with other security tools such as MDM, SIEM/SOAR,

ITSM, and asset inventory/CMDB systems.

The engineer will establish and maintain mobile vulnerability management processes aligned to

corporate and regulatory requirements, develop continuous compliance and policy enforcement

strategies, implement risk-based remediation workflows, and deliver measurable improvements in

mobile endpoint security posture.

Key Responsibilities

• Define PoT scope, success criteria, and test plans for automated mobile vulnerability

scanning (e.g., agent-based/agentless, MDM-integrated, API-driven).

• Evaluate candidate tools for: coverage (OS/app/cert/profile), detection accuracy,

scalability, device impact, privacy controls, and reporting fidelity.

• Execute pilots across representative device populations validating:

o vulnerability detection capabilities (OS versions, CVEs, patch levels, risky apps)

o configuration compliance checks (encryption, jailbreak/root, screen lock, OS

hardening)

o integration readiness (Intune/Workspace ONE/Jamf; SIEM; ITSM; CMDB)

• Produce PoT outcomes: findings, risk analysis, cost/benefit, architecture decision record,

and go/no-go recommendation.

• Coordinate with InfoSec and Compliance teams to ensure SaaS platform posture aligns with

regulatory requirements (NYDFS).

• Build and run mobile vulnerability lifecycle processes: discovery, assessment, prioritization,

remediation, validation, reporting.

• Establish severity/risk scoring tuned for mobile (exposure, device role, app risk, compliance

impact).

• Coordinate remediation with endpoint engineering, mobility admins, app owners, and

operations teams.

• Validate remediation effectiveness using scanner re-runs, policy compliance, and audit

evidence.

• Develop, deploy, and continuously improve baseline security configurations for iOS/iPadOS

and Android.

• Translate requirements into enforceable policies (password/biometrics, encryption, OS

update controls, app controls, certificate/profile constraints, VPN/Wi-Fi security, logging

settings).

• Implement compliance monitoring and drift detection; drive automated or semi-automated

corrective actions.

• Build automation scripts and APIs to normalize and enrich findings

• Support change management and communications for new controls impacting device

behavior and user experience.

• Provide technical guidance and training to operations teams for ongoing support.

Required Skills

• Mobile OS security fundamentals: iOS/iPadOS and Android security models, patching,

permissions, app ecosystems, jailbreak/root detection concepts.

• Vulnerability management expertise: CVE/patch lifecycle, risk-based prioritization, SLAs,

validation, metrics.

• Configuration compliance: baseline hardening, policy enforcement, continuous compliance

monitoring, and drift remediation.

• Mobility Scanning Tool Experience (hands-on): Qualys Mobile VMDR, Lookout, Workspace

One + Microsoft Threat Defense, or equivalent.

• MDM experience (hands-on): Microsoft Intune, Omnissa Workspace ONE, Jamf Pro, or

equivalent.

• Enterprise integration skills: API integration, data normalization, and automation with

SIEM/SOAR/ITSM (e.g., Splunk, Sentinel, QRadar; XSOAR, Sentinel SOAR; ServiceNow).

• Identity & access: conditional access concepts, device compliance states, SSO,

certificates, MFA, posture-based access controls.

• Scripting/automation: PowerShell and/or Python; familiarity with REST APIs, JSON, OAuth,

and secrets management.

• Security documentation: ability to author PoT plans, architecture diagrams, operational

runbooks, and audit evidence.

• Excellent documentation and stakeholder management skills.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills; experience presenting PoT

results and recommendations.

• Ability to work independently and across multifunctional teams.

• Detail-oriented with a focus on process improvement and operational excellence.

• Ability to manage multiple workstreams (pilot + integration + operations) with minimal

supervision.

• Familiarity with NIST, CIS Benchmarks, DISA STIG (mobile), ISO 27001 control mapping, or

similar frameworks.

Educational Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Cybersecurity, Information Systems, Computer Science, Engineering,

or equivalent practical experience.

Relevant Certifications

• CompTIA Security+, CySA+

• GIAC: GSEC, GMON, or related (if available/appropriate)

• Qualys/Rapid7/Tenable (or equivalent vulnerability platform certifications where relevant)

• Governance / Risk / Architecture (bonus)

• CISSP, CISM, CCSP

• ITIL Foundation (for ITSM integration and operations maturity)

Experience Level

• 5 - 8+ years in cybersecurity/endpoint security, with 2 - 4+ years specifically in mobile/UEM

security, vulnerability management, or compliance engineering.

Interview mode - In person/Virtual : Virtual

How many rounds of interview - minimum 2 rounds.
