Security Engineer

About the role

Dragos is looking for a Security Engineer to own day-to-day operations, tuning, and optimization of our enterprise security tool portfolio. You'll develop deep expertise in our endpoint security, vulnerability management, and operational security platforms-serving as the subject matter expert who knows these tools inside and out. This role is about operational excellence: keeping our tools running smoothly, optimizing their capability, and enabling our security teams to use them effectively through clear documentation and support.

Responsibilities

• Deploy, manage, and maintain endpoint detection and response agents across enterprise endpoints (Windows, macOS, Linux); monitor updates and patches, coordinating deployment following change control procedures.
• Configure and optimize AI-assisted detection automations, prevention policies, and security controls to maximize platform capability and coverage.
• Manage vulnerability scanning schedules and asset tagging; partner with security teams to provide remediation data and recommend configuration optimizations.
• Maintain dashboards, alerts, and reporting on tool health and sensor coverage; document configurations, automations, and operational runbooks to prevent knowledge loss and enable team consistency.
• Identify and remediate technical debt in security tool configurations and legacy automations to improve operational efficiency.

Requirements

• 2-3+ years of IT security operations experience, with at least 1-2 years of hands-on experience with CrowdStrike Falcon, Qualys, Zscaler, or similar endpoint security and vulnerability management platforms.
• Strong understanding of how security tools operate, are configured, and are optimized; basic understanding of AI/ML concepts in security contexts or demonstrated ability to learn quickly.
• Technical proficiency with Windows event logs, endpoint OS internals, process analysis, Linux/Windows command line, log file analysis, and basic query languages (e.g., KQL).
• Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail; able to identify and troubleshoot security tool misconfigurations and operational issues.
• Strong ability to document processes clearly, create runbooks, and communicate technical concepts to cross-functional security teams.
