About Elteni
Elteni is a boutique cybersecurity consulting firm that helps organizations strengthen their security posture through practical, thoughtful, and highly personalized consulting services. We partner with organizations that expect more than a checklist. They rely on us to understand their business, identify meaningful risks, and provide recommendations they can actually implement.
Our clients include hedge funds, private equity firms, venture capital firms, RIAs, family offices, technology companies, and professional services organizations. We are intentionally a small team where everyone has an opportunity to make an impact, contribute ideas, and help shape the direction of the firm.
The Opportunity
We're looking for an experienced cybersecurity consultant who can independently lead client engagements from planning through final presentation. This is a senior-level consulting role for someone who enjoys balancing technical security with governance, risk, and compliance while serving as a trusted advisor. Beyond client work, you'll help improve our methodologies, build automation, and contribute to new service offerings.
What You'll Do
· Lead cybersecurity consulting engagements from kickoff through final delivery with minimal oversight.
- Perform security assessments across Microsoft 365, Azure, AWS, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Google Workspace, and other SaaS platforms.
- Evaluate identity, cloud, endpoint, collaboration, email, and data protection controls and provide practical, risk-based recommendations.
- Conduct cybersecurity risk assessments using NIST CSF 2.0, CIS Controls, ISO 27001, COBIT, and applicable regulatory requirements.
- Develop policies, standards, incident response plans, business continuity plans, AI governance documentation, and other security program documentation.
- Perform third-party risk management and vendor security assessments.

- Mentor junior consultants and review deliverables.
- Stay current on emerging technologies, AI, cloud security, and evolving threats.
