About Titania

Titania’s multi-award-winning risk-based vulnerability management (RBVM) and network exposure management software has been trusted by elite cyber teams for more than a decade to safeguard critical infrastructure. Our Nipper solutions prevent attacks and network disruption by transforming the readiness, resilience, and recoverability of critical network infrastructure. We are expanding our technical team to enhance our capabilities in standards-driven automation and security configuration analysis.

Main Purpose of the Job:

As a Compliance Research Analyst, you will play a key role in ensuring Titania’s product suite remains aligned to the latest global security benchmarks and frameworks. You will research and interpret cybersecurity configuration standards, translate them into actionable product requirements, validate technical controls, and support both internal teams and customers with expert guidance. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys deep technical analysis, precision, and contributing directly to the quality and credibility of a cybersecurity product used worldwide.

Key Responsibilities:

Standards Research & Alignment

• Maintain expert knowledge of leading cybersecurity standards and frameworks—such as NIST (800-53 / 800-171), STIG, CIS Benchmarks, PCI DSS, MITRE, and others.
• Continuously analyse updates to industry standards and benchmarks to identify gaps, assess relevance, and ensure Nipper’s coverage remains accurate and up to date.

Product Integration & Control Mapping

• Translate configuration guidance, controls, and assessment criteria into implementable reporting logic within the Nipper products.
• Map device configuration checks to multiple frameworks and benchmarks to support automated compliance reporting at scale.
• Work closely with the product and engineering teams to refine and validate security checks, ensuring technical correctness and alignment to the intended standards.

Configuration Testing & Validation

• Test network device configurations to verify compliance logic, detect deviations, and maintain product accuracy.
• Use pattern-matching and configuration-validation techniques—including regular expressions—to create, refine, and optimise automated assessment rules.

Customer & Internal Support

• Provide third-line technical expertise to assist with escalated customer issues related to standards interpretation, compliance logic, or configuration analysis.
• Support sales and product teams by advising on standards coverage, framework alignment, and how Nipper translates security guidance into scalable, automated checks.

Skills & Experience

Essential:

• Strong knowledge of industry cybersecurity frameworks and benchmarks (such as NIST, STIG, CIS, PCI, MITRE etc.).
• Experience interpreting and translating security configuration guidance into actionable requirements.
• Hands-on experience with configuration validation, pattern matching, and regular expressions.
• Ability to analyse technical standards independently and maintain up-to-date understanding of evolving requirements.

Desirable:

• Experience in vulnerability management, network security, or RBVM tooling.
• Understanding of network architectures and common security controls.
• Previous involvement in product development or working with engineering teams.
• Customer-facing experience in technical support or consultancy.
• Experience troubleshooting or validating network device configurations (e.g., routers, switches, firewalls).
