About Archaea

bp is committed to investing in lower carbon energy so we can meet our ambition to reach net zero by 2050. And while we’re still mostly in oil and gas today, bioenergy is one of our five transition growth engines and a key focus to help us support the global energy transition.

Archaea Energy, a bp company, is a leader in landfill gas to energy and the largest renewable natural gas (RNG) producer in the US. With big ambitions, we specialize in the development, construction and operation of RNG, landfill-gas-to-electric and dairy digester facilities. The team operates around 50 sites in 32 states with a robust development pipeline.

About the role

We are seeking a Senior Cybersecurity Engineer to join our fully remote team and help strengthen our cloud-first security posture. Working directly with the CISO, you will support and secure a modern SaaS-heavy environment with minimal internal infrastructure. Our enterprise relies on Microsoft 365 with E5 licensing, Azure Sentinel for SIEM, and other cloud-native tools to protect endpoints, identities, and collaboration platforms. This role is ideal for someone passionate about automation, continuous improvement, and securing users in a highly distributed environment.

Key accountabilities

• Support the security of our OT systems and environments through collaborative involvement with Operations, creative application of security controls, and mitigation of current threats.

Cloud & SaaS Security

• Enforce identity-centric controls including MFA, conditional access, just-in-time access, and least privilege.

• Monitor threats across Microsoft 365, Azure AD, and third-party SaaS tools using native and integrated telemetry.

• Contribute to SaaS onboarding assessments and secure configuration posture.

Collaboration & Risk Reduction

• Partner with IT, engineering, operations, and business teams to embed security into daily operations and new projects.

• Provide clear technical guidance and documentation to help internal teams follow secure practices.

Threat Detection & Continuous Improvement

• Proactively identify and remediate risks through configuration reviews, security assessments, and threat hunting.

• Stay current on evolving cloud threats and contribute to the continuous tuning of defenses.

Essential experience

• 5+ years of experience in cybersecurity with a focus on cloud-first environments.

• Expert-level knowledge of Microsoft 365 E5 security capabilities and Microsoft Defender suite.

• Proficiency with Azure Sentinel, including KQL, rule tuning, and automation.

• Strong understanding of SaaS security and endpoint protection in a remote-first context.

• Experience with email threat protection platforms (e.g., Abnormal Security, Proofpoint, or similar).

• Self-starter with the ability to work independently and communicate effectively in a remote team.

Desirable criteria

• Certifications: MS-500, AZ-500, SC-200, or equivalent.

• Scripting or automation (PowerShell, KQL, Logic Apps, etc.).

• Familiarity with Zero Trust, MITRE ATT&CK, and secure-by-design principles.
