Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Green-card filing pattern in this occupation

Context, not a finding about this posting: of this employer's 229 green-card filings in this occupation, 100% were for a worker who already held the job.

Green-card follow-through: 90%

Of 127 labor certifications old enough to have been used, 13 expired without the employer filing the next step. Median time from filing to decision: 473 days.100% of their filings were for a worker who already held the job.Only certifications past the 180-day window are counted — recent ones cannot have expired yet.

Files H-1B transfers

108 transfer filings in the last year, covering 258 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

About the role

  • We are seeking an experienced Applied Security Engineer to join the ACES team.
  • This is not a traditional consulting role, nor is it a traditional product security role.

  • Develop customer-facing security reference architectures that clearly articulate trust boundaries, data flows, identity models, encryption controls, and shared responsibility models.
  • Perform threat modeling exercises for ServiceNow products, AI services, integrations, and customer deployment architectures.
  • Lead security deep dives covering networking, identity, encryption, data protection, application security, and AI security controls.
  • Build scalable artifacts including architecture patterns, deployment guides, implementation accelerators, technical whitepapers, detection content, and security design documentation.
  • Ability to build and communicate architecture diagrams that clearly articulate data flows, trust boundaries, security controls, and deployment models.

Requirements

  • Experience conducting threat modeling using frameworks such as STRIDE, ATT&CK, PASTA, or similar methodologies.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to engage audiences ranging from engineers to CISOs.

  • Experience with one or more major cloud providers: Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

Nice to have

  • Why This Role Is Unique
