Description

The role involves designing and implementing advanced threat detection capabilities across an enterprise environment. The individual will focus on developing and optimizing detection logic to identify sophisticated adversary activity within endpoint, network, and cloud infrastructures. Proactive threat hunting and the identification of behavioral indicators are central to the position. The role requires collaboration with incident response and purple team partners to translate offensive security findings into actionable detection improvements. Additionally, the position involves integrating threat intelligence and reporting on detection coverage to security leadership.

Required Qualifications and Skills

The role requires at least 10 years of experience in threat detection, hunting, penetration testing, or offensive security. Candidates must possess 7 years of experience with specific security platforms including Microsoft Security tools, CrowdStrike, Splunk Cloud, and Cribl, along with 5 years of experience in scripting and query languages. A Bachelor’s degree is required, though equivalent experience is accepted, specifically a High School Diploma combined with 4 years of relevant experience. Professional certifications such as OSCP, GCIH, GCIA, CISSP, CEH, or Microsoft Azure certifications are preferred.
