Nelnet is a diversified and innovative company committed to enriching lives through the power of service as a student loan servicer, professional services company, consumer loan originator and servicer, payments processor, renewable energy solutions, and K-12 and higher education expert. For over 40 years, Nelnet has been serving its customers, associates, and communities.

The perks of working at Nelnet go beyond our benefits package. When you join the Nelnet team, you're part of a community invested in the success of each individual. That support comes through in our work, as we are united by our mission of creating opportunities for people where they live, learn, and work.

Nelnet is hiring a Security Operations Center (SOC) Manager to lead the team that detects and investigates cyber threats across a regulated financial services environment that protects the data of millions of customers.

Turn intelligence into detections, hunts, and response playbooks, and brief security leadership on emerging threats.
Participate in industry intelligence-sharing communities and partner with external peers on threat information.

Drive automation and continuous improvement

Identify and automate repetitive SOC tasks through SOAR playbooks and scripting.
Apply AI tools such as Codex, Claude, and Gemini to improve SOC processes, alert triage, and investigations, with appropriate human review and data-handling controls.
Align detections to frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK.

Collaborate across the business

Partner with Vulnerability Management, Security Engineering, Detection Engineering, Risk Management, IT, and Compliance teams as-well-as individual business units.
