Platform Administration: Oversee daily operations, including scan policies, repositories, RBAC, platform upgrades, plugin updates, and troubleshooting scan or connectivity issues.

Vulnerability Management: Analyze scan results, prioritize vulnerabilities based on CVSS and business risk, and partner with IT/cloud teams to drive and validate remediation.
