Identify recurring analyst work and partner with security programming to automate it, including Al-agent workflows with clear validation and human review where it counts

Turn threat intelligence and emerging vulnerabilities into rapid exposure assessments and actionable response across the company

Develop and maintain playbooks, runbooks, and operational metrics that make the SOC faster, more consistent, and easier to scale

Set and elevate standards for investigation quality and case documentation, actively coaching analysts and holding managed-service partners accountable to rigorous SLAs and analytical depth

What we're looking for

5+ years of experience in security operations, incident response, or threat detection, including leading investigations end-to-end

Deep hands-on experience with SIEM and EDR platforms (e.g., Splunk, Google SecOps, CrowdStrike NGSIEM, etc.) and writing effective queries and detections

Strong understanding of attacker tradecraft and frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK;, with the ability to reconstruct activity from logs and telemetry

Experience investigating in cloud environments (AWS and/or GCP), SaaS, and identity platforms

Scripting or programming skills (Python or similar) and a drive to automate repetitive work; SOAR experience is a plus

Curiosity about Al and emerging technology,



and interest in applying them to security operations responsibly

Calm, decisive judgment under pressure, with the ability to prioritize competing incidents and communicate clearly to technical and executive audiences

Robust written communication, with a high standard for incident documentation and reporting

A self-directed, ownership-driven approach and a willingness to challenge how things have always been done
