  • Run AI-driven threat hunting, and turn gaps in visibility into new detection capabilities.
  • Conduct security incident response from detection through containment, eradication, recovery, and post-incident review, coordinating with engineering, IT, our managed SOC partners, and leadership.
  • Conduct investigations and digital forensics across endpoint, cloud, identity, and SaaS environments.
  • This is a remote role based in the US with a strong preference for candidates based on the East coast.

  • Proven experience leading incident investigations and digital forensics.
  • Hands-on experience writing and tuning detections in security detection solutions.
  • Hands-on experience building or integrating end-to-end AI agents and LLM-based solutions for security operations, such as alert triage, investigation, or automated response.
  • Scripting and automation skills in Python, and experience with cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP) and infrastructure as code.
  • You are organized, prioritize effectively, and stay calm under pressure, handling incidents alongside long-term build work.
  • Excellent communication, interpersonal, and collaboration skills with the ability to synthesize highly technical concepts into clear and concise language
