Summary

Data has never been more valuable and vulnerable. As cybercriminals become more sophisticated and regulations more strict, organizations struggle to answer one key question: “Is my data safe?"

At Varonis, we see the world of cybersecurity differently. Instead of chasing threats, we believe the most practical approach is protecting data from the inside out. We’ve built the industry’s first fully autonomous Data Security Platform to help our customers dramatically reduce risk with minimal human effort.

At Varonis, we move fast. We’re an ultra-collaborative company with brilliant people who care deeply about the details. Together, we’re solving interesting and complex puzzles to keep the world’s data safe.

Position Overview:

Varonis MDR team is at the forefront of worldwide data detection and response services. We lead and redefine how data should be monitored, and protected and how data breach incidents should be handled. It’s a 24/7 global security service assisting customers to investigate and respond to security incidents.

We are seeking an experienced MDR Team Lead who will oversee a team of MDR Security Analysts. This oversight includes training and developing the knowledge and skills needed to execute the MDR mission, ensuring adherence to all operating policies and procedures, ensuring the delivery of the MDR service within all SLAs, and serving as a point of technical and operational escalation for MDR analysts. Data is the #1 target of attackers, and Varonis' Managed Data Detection and Response (MDDR) customers entrust our team with the security of their data. MDR Team Leads are the lynchpin of MDR operations, ensuring the team is working 24x7 to monitor, triage, investigate, and escalate incidents where data is at risk and to ensure we meet operational SLAs.

Responsibilities:

  • Technical and operational escalation point for investigations, incidents, and other elements of the MDR service.
  • Assist in the development, documentation, analysis, testing, and modification of Varonis’ threat detection systems, playbooks, runbooks, and MDR team operations.
  • Continuously train the team so they are equipped with the required skills and knowledge to effectively execute the MDR service.
  • Validate findings and coordinate investigative efforts with customers and internal teams.
  • Ensure all investigative findings are documented and communicated appropriately by the team, including tracking in CRM.
  • Maintain up-to-date knowledge of all aspects of Varonis MDR service.
  • Oversee and execute programs, projects, operational tasks, and responsibilities related to the MDR service.
  • Conduct regular performance reviews and quarterly SWOT analyses to drive team growth and development.

Requirements:

  • Proven success in leading and managing within a team-oriented environment.
  • 4+ years of experience working in cybersecurity operations in a global cybersecurity company
  • 2+ years of experience leading a team.
  • Degree or certification(s) in cybersecurity and/or proven ability to execute across cybersecurity operations disciplines, including monitoring, detection, investigation, and incident response.
  • Proven ability to deliver security operations service while meeting SLA and other operational requirements.
  • Knowledge of common security technologies and tools including network-based (firewall and IDS), host-based (EDR and AV), data-based (DLP and DSPM), and identity-based (PAM and IAM).
  • Proven ability to creatively problem-solve when handling complex issues.
  • Strong analytical and critical thinking skills.
  • Excellent communication skills in English (written and oral) and interpersonal skills (direct reports, colleagues, and customers).
  • Attention to detail and the capability to deliver outcomes autonomously.
