  • Continuously improve security strategy & technology stack by staying up to date with industry trends, emerging threats, and evolving security best practices.
  • Secure SaaS applications and infrastructure by implementing security best practices, access controls, and continuous monitoring.
  • Collaborate with both non-engineering teams and IT to drive improvements by providing consultative expertise and offering advisory insights for business projects.
  • Design, implement and maintain secured cloud security technologies alongside the Product Security team to achieve security and compliance objectives across multiple cloud technologies (e.g. AWS GuardDuty/Security Hub/Inspector, GCP Security Command Center).
  • Enhance threat hunting, incident response, and security operations through continuous improvement in detection, analysis, and automation.

What you’ll need:

  • You’re an accomplished Security Engineer or Security Operations Engineer with a track record of threat detection engineering.
  • You bring hands-on experience with SIEM solutions, EDR, intrusion detection/prevention systems, and other security tools.
  • You’re proficient in scripting languages (e.g. Python) for automating security processes and customizing security tools.
  • You have prior experience with implementing infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Pulumi).
  • You have a strong understanding of networking protocols, cybersecurity frameworks, and attack vectors.
  • You have exceptional analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to analyze complex security incidents and provide effective solutions.
  • You have excellent communication skills with the ability to convey technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
  • You bring strong documentation skills for creating and maintaining threat detection rules, procedures, and incident reports.
