- Partner with security analysts, security engineers, and technical system owners to understand differences between expected and actual system behavior.
- Shape the Enterprise Security roadmap in partnership with your manager and peers, balancing business needs with operational improvements to establish what we prioritize next and why.
- Conduct targeted threat hunting to identify security threats, deepen our understanding of the environment, and develop detections and automation based on your findings.
- Mentor junior team members and foster a collaborative environment where we share knowledge and learn from one another.
What you'll bring
- At least 5 years of experience in information security, developing technology and processes that improve the coverage and effectiveness of security tooling across corporate IT and complex platform environments.
- Experience with some combination of mobile device management (MDM), EDR, DLP, and cloud security tooling.
- Broad knowledge of operating systems, file systems, networking, common protocols, public cloud security, and automation, including how to secure the systems and environments you support.
- The ability to communicate complex security concepts to diverse stakeholders and deliver clear, actionable recommendations.
- Experience managing complex changes in larger organizations, including developing and executing communication and implementation plans.
