Requirements
• You will make recommendations for detective and preventative controls, and you will design and build automations and AI-driven workflows that enhance our security posture and reduce mean time to detect and respond. • Security Engineering Experience (Threat Detection, Incident Response, Threat Hunting, Product Security, Corporate Security, or other related disciplines) • Solid experience writing code—whether in software engineering, data engineering, or building automations (Python, Go, etc.), with a desire to apply these skills to AI/ML-powered use cases in detection and response. • Experience collaborating with various security teams and stakeholders • Ability to review and analyze logging and observability requirements that support detection and response • A risk-based approach to security to help prioritize key security initiatives and determine when AI provides meaningful value over traditional rules and heuristics. • Knowledge of the current security landscape with domain knowledge in several of: cloud security, identity and access, SaaS security, endpoint security, data security, and insider risk. • An automation-first mindset for scaling security, including comfort with CI/CD, infrastructure as code, and “detections as code.” • Be a humble, team-oriented engineer who prioritizes team success in a zero-ego environment. • Experience with development in a high-level programming language (Go, Python, etc.), and comfort applying those skills to data-heavy, automation, or AI-related projects. • Experience handling data programmatically (SQL, Python, etc.), ideally including large-scale log and telemetry datasets used for detection logic or analytics. • Experience writing production code including unit tests, version control, and CI/CD integration. • Experience with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, Azure, GCP) and understanding of its native logging, monitoring, and security services. • Familiarity with the risks that impact SaaS products and workstations (e.g., account compromise, data exfiltration, phishing, supply chain attacks) • Computer Science degree or equivalent practical experience • Experience developing and working with systems that utilize infrastructure as code (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation), and/or “detections as code” frameworks • Experience building and maintaining production-level software or platforms that process high-volume data streams (e.g., logging, metrics, traces) or power security analytics • Experience deploying detections at a global scale • Experience with Snowflake or equivalent cloud data platforms, including building data pipelines or analytics that could support security workloads
Responsibilities
• Develop and deploy detections using modern engineering practices (testing/validation, CI/CD pipelines, detections as code, detection development lifecycle, etc.), including both rules-based and AI-assisted detections. • Mature our threat detection program by analyzing gaps and mitigating risks via detective controls, including experimentation with AI/ML approaches where they improve signal-to-noise ratio or analyst efficiency. • Build and maintain strong partnerships with our stakeholders to provide detection as a service, including self-service patterns, reusable components, and AI-enhanced detections that support their domains. • Continuously measure and improve detection quality (coverage, precision/recall, false positive rate, latency)
