## About the Role

* Demonstrated experience in digital forensics, incident response, and threat hunting across cloud platforms, enterprise infrastructure, and operational or IoT environments.
 * Hands-on expertise using enterprise security tooling, developing custom scripts, and authoring high-fidelity detection rules in Splunk SPL, YARA, or Sigma.
 * Practical capability in security automation integrations, malware analysis, or sandboxing technologies to accelerate threat investigation workflows.
 * Strong cross-functional technical communication skills to collaborate with Engineering, Product, and Infrastructure teams on architecture improvements.
 * Deep understanding of cyber threat intelligence frameworks, MITRE ATT&CK mapping, and technical threat modeling.

## Description

* Lead end-to-end threat hunting campaigns across cloud environments, IoT hardware systems, and corporate applications to detect advanced persistent threats and visibility gaps.
 * Partner with the Offensive Security team to validate custom detection rules and translate findings into high-fidelity detections mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework.
 * Design and execute technical exercise scenarios and tabletop exercises that test incident response readiness against real-world cyber risks.
 * Serve as a technical escalation point for deep-dive root cause analysis on complex incidents and mentor junior engineers to elevate team technical capabilities.
 * Integrate security automation platforms and intelligent workflows to streamline threat analysis and accelerate operational response capabilities., * This isn't a routine SOC analyst or Tier 1 triage job, you will focus on proactive threat hunting, deep adversary pursuit, and advanced detection engineering.
 * This is not a purely offensive red-teaming role, you will collaborate with offensive security to validate detections and improve overall defense and response posture.
 * This isn't a hands-off strategic management position, you will execute technical threat hunts, analyze suspicious binaries, and write detection logic directly.
