As a lead engineer, you serve as the technical anchor for the engineering team that supports a product. You create, own and are responsible for the application architecture that best serves the product in its functional and non-functional needs. You identify and drive architectural changes to accelerate feature development or improve the quality of service (or both). You have deep and broad engineering skills and are capable of standing up an architecture in its whole on your own, but you choose to influence a wider team by acting as a “force multiplier”. Core responsibilities of this job are described within this job description. Job duties may change at any time due to business needs.

About the Role

As a Lead Engineer – Threat Hunting and Countermeasures, you will help advance Target’s ability to detect and understand sophisticated threats by combining threat hunting expertise with strong data and analytical capabilities. This role is centered on proactive, hypothesis-driven hunting, but it is equally grounded in the ability to work at scale across large, complex datasets to identify meaningful patterns, anomalies, and indicators of adversary behavior. You will apply statistical methods, security analytics, and machine learning techniques to transform hunting concepts into scalable, repeatable detection strategies. Working across security, detection engineering, and intelligence functions, you will investigate emerging threats, develop countermeasures, improve visibility, and strengthen Target’s overall defensive posture. This role is ideal for someone who is deeply technical, analytically driven, and excited to blend hands-on hunting with modern data science approaches in cyber defense.

Core responsibilities of this job are described within this job description. Job duties may change at any time due to business needs.

Core Responsibilities

  • Process and analyze large-scale security datasets using platforms such as BigQuery or similar data environments to identify behavioral patterns, establish baselines, and surface anomalous activity.
  • Conduct structured, hypothesis-driven threat hunts informed by threat intelligence, adversary tradecraft, and behavioral analytics.
  • Apply statistical analysis, anomaly detection, and machine learning techniques to improve threat detection, investigation, and prioritization workflows.
  • Design, develop, operationalize, and tune production-ready detections, including data-driven and machine learning-based approaches, to identify novel or evasive threats.
  • Build and enhance scalable analytics and detection pipelines in partnership with detection engineering, data engineering, and platform teams.
  • Investigate emerging threats, adversary techniques, and security incidents to refine hunt methodologies and detection strategies.
  • Collaborate with incident response, detection engineering, cyber threat intelligence, and other security partners to validate findings and improve security coverage.
  • Partner with red and blue teams to test detections, strengthen countermeasures, and expand visibility across the enterprise.
  • Contribute to threat modeling and adversary research to continuously improve threat hunting practices and defensive capabilities.

About You

  • 4-year degree in cybersecurity, computer science, data science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 7+ years of experience in cybersecurity, including at least 3 years focused on developing detections informed by threat intelligence, adversary behaviors, and/or data science and machine learning techniques.
  • Experience processing and analyzing large-scale datasets using platforms such as BigQuery, Snowflake, Databricks, or similar technologies.
  • Strong data engineering fundamentals, including building and maintaining data pipelines (e.g., ETL workflows, streaming, or batch processing).
  • Experience applying data science and machine learning techniques (e.g., anomaly detection, classification, clustering, behavioral modeling) to cybersecurity problems.
  • Experience developing, deploying, and tuning production-ready detections using statistical or machine learning–based approaches.
  • Strong familiarity with SIEM platforms, EDR solutions, and security data analytics.
  • Experience scripting (e.g. Python, PowerShell, Bash) to automate security tasks and enhance threat hunting workflows.
  • Deep understanding of adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) and frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK and the Cyber Kill Chain.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to interpret large datasets and identify malicious activity.
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to navigate ambiguity and collaborate effectively across security teams.

Desired Skills (not required but a plus):

  • Experience developing, deploying, and tuning production-ready detections using statistical or machine learning–based approaches.
  • Experience with deception techniques, honeytokens, or other adversary engagement strategies.
  • Background in malware analysis, reverse engineering, exploit development, digital forensics, or network security monitoring.
  • Experience applying LLMs to security use cases (e.g., log analysis, alert triage, enrichment, or detection augmentation).
  • Experience with feature engineering for security telemetry or graph-based threat detection.
  • Relevant certifications such as GIAC Machine Learning Engineer (GMLE), GREM, GCFA, or similar advanced cybersecurity or data science credentials.

This position may be considered for a Remote or Hybrid (known internally at Target as "Flex for Your Day") work arrangement based on Target's needs.  A Remote work arrangement means the team member works full-time from home or an alternate location that's not a Target location, does not have a desk at a Target location and may travel to HQ up to 4 times a year.  A Hybrid/Flex for Your Day work arrangement means the team member's core role may be performed either remote or onsite at a Target location depending upon what your role, team and tasks require for that day.

Target as a tech company? Absolutely. We’re the behind-the-scenes powerhouse that fuels Target’s passion and commitment to cutting-edge innovation. We anchor every facet of one of the world’s best-loved retailers with a strong technology framework that relies on the latest tools and technologies—and the brightest people—to deliver incredible value to guests online and in stores. Target Technology Services is on a mission to offer the systems, tools and support that guests and team members need and deserve. Our high-performing teams balance independence with collaboration, and we pride ourselves on being versatile, agile and creative. We drive industry-leading technologies in support of every angle of the business, and help ensure that Target operates smoothly, securely and reliably from the inside out.

As a SIEM Engineer, you will:

  • Learn and contribute to end-to-end log ingestion into Google SecOps (formerly Chronicle)—from source onboarding through reliable delivery—so downstream teams can power search, alerting, enrichment, and investigations.
  • Pair with Threat Management Engineering, Threat Detection & Operations, Cyber Threat Intelligence, and the CSIRT Teams to produce high-quality and backwards compatible changes to large-volume, high-criticality data feeds and SecOps integrations.
  • Participate in troubleshooting production issues across log pipelines and SIEM integrations (including other SIEM platforms), as part of a shared 24/7 on-call rotation with strong team support and runbooks.
  • Build and enhance ingestion integrations and operational tooling using Python and practical regular expressions for parsing, validation, and transformations (ECS familiarity is a plus).
  • Contribute to monitoring and alerting aligned to platform SLOs/SLAs, improving completeness, timeliness, and quality while reducing repeat incidents.
  • Partner with Security Operations and adjacent platform owners to onboard feeds, support schema changes, and continuously improve telemetry quality.

In this role, you’ll be a hands-on engineer contributing to the log ingestion platform that powers SIEM outcomes. You’ll ramp quickly on the platform’s architecture and operational patterns, delivering well-scoped improvements to integrations, data handling, and reliability with guidance from senior engineers. You’ll apply strong troubleshooting and systems thinking to diagnose issues, implement fixes, and improve monitoring/runbooks so problems don’t repeat. Over time, you’ll take end-to-end ownership of discrete components and deliver high-quality changes with increasing independence, balancing delivery speed with correctness and operational readiness.

Core responsibilities of this job are described within this job description. Job duties may change at any time due to business needs.

About you:

  • 4-year degree in Computer Science (or related field) or equivalent practical experience
  • 1+ years of software development and/or platform engineering experience
  • Proficiency in Python
  • Proficiency with regular expressions for parsing, extraction, and validation
  • Experience integrating systems using APIs (including authentication/authorization concepts)
  • Experience manipulating and validating log/event data (e.g., JSON), including transformations and schema changes
  • Demonstrated troubleshooting and root-cause analysis skills in production or production-like environments
  • Understanding of distributed systems fundamentals and common resilience patterns (timeouts, retries, idempotency)
  • Willingness to participate in a shared 24/7 on-call rotation

Work Arrangement:

This position will operate as a Hybrid/Flex for Your Day work arrangement based on Target’s needs. A Hybrid/Flex for Your Day work arrangement means the team member’s core role will need to be performed both onsite at the Target HQ MN location the role is assigned to and virtually, depending upon what your role, team and tasks require for that day.
