The ideal candidate will have deep technical expertise, strong analytical skills, and a proactive mindset toward incident response and continuous improvement. A career built on defending digital infrastructure. A career focused on proactive threat detection and response. A career that protects critical assets and enables secure business operations. Your Responsibilities on the Team Incident Response & Threat Management Lead investigations of complex, high severity security incidents from detection through containment, remediation, and recovery, coordinating across internal teams and the MDR partner. Act as the primary escalation point for Tier 3 alerts and incidents and perform root cause analysis with actionable remediation plans. Serve as the primary liaison to the MDR provider: validate and triage MDR alerts, ensure alignment on response protocols and escalation procedures, and provide tuning recommendations to improve detection fidelity. Develop and maintain incident response playbooks, runbooks, and workflows. Analyze threat actor tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) and translate findings into improved defenses and detection content. Threat Hunting Conduct proactive, hypothesis-driven threat hunts across endpoint, identity, network, and cloud telemetry, leveraging threat intelligence and the MITRE ATT&CK framework to surface threats that evade automated detection. Operationalize hunt findings into durable detection logic and response procedures. Automation & Process Improvement Identify recurring, manual, or manual heavy SOC processes and design automation to reduce analyst effort and accelerate response. Build, test, and maintain automated playbooks and response workflows in a SOAR platform (e.g., Torq, Microsoft Sentinel Automation Rules and Logic Apps) for enrichment, triage, containment, and case management. Develop, tune, and operationalize detection and correlation rules through automated validation and deployment. Measure the impact of automation against SOC performance metrics (MTTD, MTTR, alert volume, false-positive rate) and iterate based on results. Partner with Detection Engineering and Security Engineering to integrate tooling, close telemetry gaps, and standardize repeatable response. Security Monitoring & Analysis Monitor and analyze logs and alerts across SIEM, EDR, identity, and cloud platforms. Correlate data across multiple sources to identify patterns, anomalies, and emerging threats. Maintain situational awareness of the external threat landscape and internal security posture. Mentorship & Reporting Mentor Tier 1 and Tier 2 analysts, lead knowledge-sharing, and uplevel team investigative tradecraft and tooling proficiency. Document incident timelines, findings, and lessons learned. Track, analyze, and drive improvement of core SOC performance metrics (MTTD, MTTR, detection coverage, false-positive rate), and use them to prioritize tuning and automation efforts.
