Detection and Response Manager

The Detection and Response Manager will build, lead, and continuously mature the Detection and Response Team, serving as Tier 3 support for Con Edisons IT and OT Cybersecurity Operations Center (CSOC). This role is responsible for advanced threat detection, incident escalation, and enterprise wide incident response. Reporting to the Director of Cybersecurity Operations, the manager will establish a new team that functions as the primary escalation path for the CSOC, advances detection engineering maturity, and conducts proactive threat hunting across the enterprise. The role also influences front line CSOC effectiveness by delivering validated detections, well defined playbooks, and targeted training to ensure consistent and confident execution. This position partners closely with Security Engineering, the CSOC, Offensive Security, Corporate Security, and the ETS team to strengthen and evolve how threats are identified and responded to across the organization. As Con Edison continues to invest in technologies such as cloud platforms, containers, AI, and OT environments, the scope of this role includes maturing detection and response capabilities across both existing and emerging technologies. This includes enhancing incident response processes and expanding SIEM and SOAR use cases to support business growth and resilience. The Detection and Response Manager ensures the development of repeatable procedures, validation of detections through realistic scenarios, effective training of stakeholder teams, and seamless transitions of new capabilities to the CSOC. The ultimate objective is to strengthen Tier 1 and Tier 2 operations, enabling faster response times, higher confidence, and improved security outcomes. #J-18808-Ljbffr Con Edison
