About this job

You will build code-based cloud security monitoring that runs through logging pipelines, ETL and SIEM feeds, turn attacker techniques into high-signal detections, and help drive incidents to closure through a shared on-call rotation.

Eligibility

  • 4+ years of relevant industry experience
  • Strong detection engineering and incident response knowledge
  • Experience building detections and telemetry for Kubernetes, containers and multi-cloud
  • Good coding skills in Python or Go
  • Experience running SIEM, log aggregation or SOAR tools

How to apply

  • Tailor your resume to detections you wrote, incidents you handled and the logging or SIEM pipelines you built.

Before the interview, prepare:

  • Detection as code: version control, testing and deploying detection rules
  • Kubernetes threats: what to log and detect in a container platform
  • MITRE ATT&CK: map a cloud credential theft scenario to detections
  • Incident walk-through: from alert to containment and post-incident fixes
