Resilience is a cybersecurity, cyber insurance, and cyber risk management company founded in 2016 by experts from the US military and intelligence communities. The company integrates risk quantification software, cybersecurity expertise, and A+ rated cyber insurance for middle and large organizations ($100M–$10B revenue).
As a Tabletop Exercise (TTX) Specialist reporting to the Director of Security and Risk Services, you will design, build, and facilitate immersive, crisis-level cyber incident simulations for enterprise clients. You will serve as a trusted advisor testing Incident Response Plans (IRPs), Disaster Recovery Plans (DRPs), and Business Continuity Plans (BCPs), ensuring executive teams are battle-tested before real threats strike.
Key responsibilities in the first six months:
• Scenario Design & Engineering: Partner with Customer Engagement teams to audit client IRPs, identify coverage gaps, and author tailored exercise guides, facilitator scripts, and evaluation metrics mapped to each client's industry and regulatory requirements.
• Executive & C-Suite Facilitation: Lead virtual and in-person TTX sessions, guiding cross-functional stakeholders—including non-technical C-Suite, Legal, PR, and HR—through complex decisions during simulated ransomware attacks, data breaches, and systemic security events.
• Post-TTX Analysis & Actionable Guidance: Conduct debriefing sessions and deliver comprehensive After-Action Reports (AARs) summarizing lessons learned, regulatory decision-making nuances, and actionable security recommendations.
• Methodology Scaling: Contribute to refining Resilience's proprietary TTX frameworks, methodologies, and best practices as the client portfolio grows globally.
The role is high-visibility and client-facing, requiring confident communication with non-technical executives under pressure. You will work in a fast-moving startup culture guided by transparency, excellence, grit, and humility.
Benefits include flexible work schedules, family paid leave, paid healthcare, 401k/Pension, professional development, flexible PTO, and employee referral bonuses. Up to 25% travel across the US and Europe is required.
REQUIREMENTS:
• 3–5 years of proven experience designing and facilitating cybersecurity incident response TTXs, IRPs, DRPs, and BCPs for enterprise clients.
• Demonstrated mastery in facilitating crisis simulations for cross-functional enterprise stakeholders, specifically non-technical C-Suite executives, Legal, PR, and HR leaders.
• Bachelor's degree in Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field (or equivalent practical experience).
• Strong working knowledge of major US and European cybersecurity and privacy regulations (GDPR, NIS2, CCPA, SEC cyber disclosure rules) and their impact on incident response governance.
• Strong project management skills to handle multiple client engagements, coordinate enterprise schedules, and meet strict deadlines.
• Willingness to travel up to 25% across the US and Europe.
NICE-TO-HAVES:
• Relevant industry certifications (e.g., CISSP, CISM).
• Hands-on proficiency with specialized TTX simulation platforms and software.
