Responsibilities include but not limited to:

  • Execute a repeatable process to confirm if threat intelligence affects the ICE environment.

  • Conduct predictive threat simulations to determine attack probability and cost analysis.

  • Incorporate Data Science modeling and machine learning into daily hunt operations.

  • Identify and investigate endpoint, network, and cloud-based threats.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s Degree (or 4+ additional years of experience).

  • 5+ years of experience with data hunting/manipulation.

  • One of the following: CISSP (Associate), CCSP, SSCP, GCIH, GNFA, or GCIA AND one from the DOD 8570 CSSP list.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Skill in writing scripts (R, Python, SQL) for advanced data analysis.

  • Advanced proficiency in using EDR and SOAR solutions for threat identification.

  • Expertise in incorporating machine learning models into daily threat hunting.

  • Proven ability to identify and investigate threats within Cloud-based environments.

  • Experience conducting predictive simulations for attack cost and probability.

  • Experience with post-quantum computing assessment/implementation

Clearance Requirements:

  • Active Secret clearance and SCI eligibility.

  • Must be able to obtain and maintain an ICE Entry on Duty (EOD) Suitability.

Physical Requirements:

  • Must be able to remain in a stationary position 50% of the time.
