Cybersecurity Engineering, Risk & Governance Senior Advisor

Join the Clean Energy Revolution

Become a Cybersecurity Engineering, Risk & Governance Senior Advisor at Southern California Edison (SCE) and build a better tomorrow. In this job, you’ll lead high-impact cybersecurity initiatives that strengthen SCE’s ability to protect critical infrastructure, customer information, and business operations. The role partners across cybersecurity, infrastructure, application, OT/ICS, compliance, risk, audit, operations, and third‑party teams to ensure cyber requirements are not treated as after‑the‑fact controls, but are embedded into architecture, delivery, and operational decision‑making.

• Consulting on cybersecurity risk assessments across enterprise technology and IT/OT environments, identifying priority systems, credible threat scenarios, control gaps, and practical remediation paths.
• Translating business, regulatory, and technical risk into clear treatment plans with accountable owners, timelines, measurable outcomes, and executive‑ready reporting.
• Advising on secure architecture patterns for cloud, on‑premises, identity, network, endpoint, application, and OT/ICS environments, with emphasis on defensible, supportable, and audit‑ready designs.
• Establishing and maturing secure‑by‑default baselines, hardened system profiles, control mappings, evidence practices, and exception processes that reduce drift and improve governance consistency.
• Partnering with engineering and operations teams to improve segmentation, access control, logging, vulnerability management, configuration management, and security monitoring across critical platforms.
• Driving complex cybersecurity projects from strategy through execution, managing dependencies, vendor coordination, stakeholder alignment, technical risks, and delivery outcomes.
• Supporting NERC CIP and broader regulatory readiness by connecting cybersecurity engineering work to compliance obligations, audit evidence, control effectiveness, and risk‑based prioritization.
• Strengthening cyber decision‑making by creating repeatable methods for threat modeling, control validation, security assessments, remediation tracking, and governance reporting.
• Serving as a trusted advisor to senior leaders, helping them understand cybersecurity risk in business terms and make informed decisions that balance reliability, security, compliance, cost, and operational practicality.

The impact of this role is broader than delivering individual security projects. The Senior Advisor helps SCE make cybersecurity a durable operating capability: measurable, repeatable, embedded, and aligned to the realities of a modern electric utility.

• Grid resilience: reducing cyber exposure across systems that support safe, reliable electric service and grid modernization.
• Operational reliability: helping ensure cybersecurity controls support, rather than disrupt, critical utility operations.
• Regulatory confidence: improving evidence quality, control maturity, and audit readiness across cybersecurity and compliance programs.
• Risk reduction: turning assessments, findings, and technical concerns into actionable remediation plans that close material gaps.
• Secure modernization: enabling cloud, automation, data, AI, and OT/ICS initiatives to move forward with security built into the design.
• Customer and community trust: protecting sensitive data and critical services for the millions of people, businesses, and communities that depend on SCE.
• Executive decision support: giving leadership a clear view of cyber risk, tradeoffs, priorities, and measurable progress.
