Information Security Engineer

NMI is looking for an Information Security Engineer to join our team! This is a unique opportunity to be part of a fast-growing team that helps our partners deliver innovative experiences in the payments landscape.

With 2+ years experience in an Information Security and/or a PCI-DSS compliance role, preferably in a FinTech environment, you will be responsible for implementing information security practices and procedures to ensure our systems are secure and that we continue to deliver Level 1 PCI-DSS compliance and beyond.

What will I be doing?

The role will be hands on with security and monitoring systems including Logging, Vulnerability Management, IPS, Anti-Virus, Patching and others.

You will be expected to communicate effectively, understand compliance requirements and be able to deliver evidence and address compliance issues in a timely fashion, including the collection and delivery of compliance evidence.
