Information Security Engineer
- SUMMARY: Information Security Engineer with 5+ years supporting cloud and on-prem environments; strong in incident response, vulnerability management, and security tooling; collaborative and detail-oriented.
- Acme FinTech (Security Engineer, 2022-Present): Implemented SIEM improvements and dashboards to enhance monitoring and alerting across the organization.
- Acme FinTech: Led vulnerability management program by coordinating monthly scans, prioritizing findings with engineering, and tracking remediation to completion.
- BlueOak Healthcare (Security Analyst, 2019-2022): Assisted with incident response investigations and created runbooks; helped reduce security issues and improve response time.
- BlueOak Healthcare: Performed web application penetration testing and security reviews for new projects; partnered with developers to address findings.
- CERTS/EDU: B.S. Information Systems; Security+; AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner.
Overview
- Add scope and outcomes (environment size, timelines, measurable impact) to most bullets.
- Name the tools/stack used (SIEM, scanners, EDR, cloud) to make experience concrete and searchable.
- Tighten language to show ownership (what you drove vs. assisted) and clarify deliverables.
Suggestions
Rewrite to specify SIEM platform, coverage, and measurable improvements. Example: "Owned Splunk Cloud detections for 120+ log sources; built 15 correlation searches and 8 exec dashboards, cutting alert triage time 30% and improving MTTD from 45m to 20m."
"SIEM improvements" and "enhance monitoring" are too generic; naming the platform, scale, and outcomes makes the accomplishment credible and easier to evaluate.
Referenced resume text
"Implemented SIEM improvements and dashboards to enhance monitoring and alerting across the organization."
Add the scanner/tooling, volume, SLA, and closure rate. Example: "Ran weekly Tenable.io scans across 2,400 endpoints and 180 servers; drove remediation SLAs (14 days critical/30 days high), improving critical vuln closure from 62% to 90% in two quarters."
Vulnerability management is only described as coordination; adding scale and remediation performance shows impact and operational maturity.
Referenced resume text
"Led vulnerability management program by coordinating monthly scans, prioritizing findings with engineering, and tracking remediation to completion."
Replace "assisted" phrasing with your specific responsibilities and incident metrics. Example: "Served as IR on-call (PagerDuty) for phishing/malware events; collected EDR evidence, wrote timelines, and coordinated containment with IT; handled ~8 incidents/month and reduced containment time from 6h to 2h."
The bullet currently undersells ownership and lacks proof of improved response time; defining your actions and incident volume makes it stronger.
Referenced resume text
"Assisted with incident response investigations and created runbooks; helped reduce security issues and improve response time."
Clarify testing methodology, scope, and results. Example: "Performed OWASP-focused testing (Burp Suite, Semgrep) on 6 customer-facing apps; identified and helped fix 2 high-risk issues (IDOR, stored XSS) before launch; added security checks to CI for regression."
"Performed web application penetration testing" is believable but incomplete; hiring teams look for tools, approach, number of apps, and severity/outcomes.
Referenced resume text
"Performed web application penetration testing and security reviews for new projects; partnered with developers to address findings."
Upgrade certs toward the role and align to your cloud claims. Example: replace or supplement Cloud Practitioner with "AWS Security Specialty" (or at least "AWS Solutions Architect Associate") and add a current date/expected date.
Cloud Practitioner is entry-level for an Information Security Engineer; stronger, security-relevant credentials improve fit and signal depth.
Referenced resume text
"CERTS/EDU: B.S. Information Systems; Security+; AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner."
