  • Produce Security response procedures, including runbooks, IRPs, workflows, automations, and internal briefings.

  • Threat Hunt for anomalous activity in our signals, determining if outliers are threats or expected behavior.

You have:

  • 5+ years of experience across Infosec, IT, Infra/SRE, and/or Incident Response.

  • 5+ years of experience in Detection or Response roles specifically.

  • Incident Leadership Experience – You’ve operated as an incident commander and have flexed into engineering work as needed. You’re proficient in locating, convening, and coordinating responders to progress and resolve incidents.

  • An Eager Problem Solver – You are drawn to solving issues rather than avoiding them.

  • Team-Oriented – You enjoy team accomplishments and hold yourself to high standards to enable group success.
