  • Collaborate with Incident Response and Security Operations during investigations; ensure the team has the tools, processes, and training needed to respond effectively, minimizing impact; participate in an on-call rotation, providing leadership during critical incidents
  • Lead, mentor, and grow a team of cybersecurity engineers; foster a culture of technical excellence, collaboration, and professional development; conduct regular one-on-ones and performance reviews
  • Drive quarterly and annual planning, tracking, and reporting to improve D&R capabilities

Required Qualifications

  • Strong technical foundation in threat detection, incident response, and forensic analysis
  • Demonstrated experience defining and executing a technical strategy or roadmap
  • Experience with security tools like SIEM, EDR, NDR.
  • Experience authoring and maintaining detections (anomalous, network, host, or cloud activity)
  • Experience securing operating systems (Linux, macOS, Windows)
  • Strong understanding of cloud-native environments (AWS, Kubernetes) and securing them
  • Experience with DevSecOps, CI/CD, and Infrastructure-as-Code (e.g., Git, Terraform)
  • End-to-end incident management experience, driving cross-departmental collaboration to contain incidents
  • Deep knowledge of the MITRE ATT&CK framework and modern adversarial techniques; understanding of NIST CSF
  • Ability to write quality, testable code in Python, C++
  • 10+ years of progressive security experience, 3+ as a manager leading, mentoring, and managing a high-performing cybersecurity engineering or operations team

Desirable Qualifications

  • Experience with vehicle/embedded or OT security, or willingness to ramp up quickly in this area
  • Experience using, building, and maintaining data lakes for cybersecurity
  • Experience with big data tools and methodologies (e.g., AWS Athena, Snowflake)
  • Experience designing and implementing Zero Trust Architecture
  • Experience with low-level data collection frameworks (e.g., auditd, sysmon, eBPF)
  • Experience proactively threat hunting
