Description
At Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), we are seeking a highly experienced and technically proficient Principal Advanced Threat response analyst to join our global security organization. The ideal candidate will have over a decade of hands-on experience in incident response, threat hunting, threat intelligence, digital forensics, malware analysis and incident management, with proven expertise in leading investigations into Advanced Persistent Threats (APT) and other complex, multi-stage intrusions, including widescale Ransomware attacks. This role requires a blend of technical mastery, investigative acumen, and leadership capability. The candidate will drive proactive and reactive threat hunting efforts, lead critical incident response engagements, and develop both short-term containment and long-term remediation strategies to strengthen the organization’s cyber defense and improve overall security posture. Key Responsibilities Lead complex threat investigations involving APTs, ransomware, insider threats, and nation-state activity across enterprise and cloud environments. Drive proactive threat hunting programs focused on emerging TTPs, behavioral analytics, and detection gaps within EDR, SIEM, and network telemetry data. Develop and execute purple team exercises, simulating advanced adversarial tradecraft to assess detection and response capabilities. Collaborate with red teams and offensive security engineers to understand attacker tools, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) at a deep technical level and translate that understanding into effective detections. Perform incident command during major security events — leading multidisciplinary response teams, engaging executive stakeholders, and delivering after-action reports and strategic recommendations. Develop custom detections, playbooks, and automation in Splunk, Sentinel, or other platforms to improve time-to-detect and time-to-contain metrics. Mentor and coach junior analysts, hunters, and incident responders — fostering an environment of continuous learning and operational excellence. Contribute to threat intelligence initiatives, enriching internal intelligence feeds with context from ongoing investigations and external research. Collaborate with engineering and architecture teams to harden security controls across endpoint, network, and cloud layers. Conduct tabletop exercises and technical simulations to validate response readiness and identify process or technology gaps. Required Qualifications 10+ years of experience in cybersecurity roles focused on incident response, threat hunting, digital forensics, threat intelligence, or SOC operations. Proven record of leading end-to-end investigations of advanced threat campaigns (APT) or other complex multi-vector attacks. Strong understanding of MITRE ATT&CK framework, adversary emulation, and kill chain analysis. Demonstrated expertise in both enterprise IT and cloud security (AWS, Azure, GCP) — from defensive and offensive perspectives. Working knowledge of red team / offensive security operations and the ability to deconstruct offensive tools (e.g., Cobalt Strike, Empire, Metasploit, Sliver, Mimikatz, other open-source OffSec tools) to detect their presence and behaviors. Deep knowledge of SIEMs (Splunk, Sentinel, ELK), EDR platforms (CrowdStrike, Carbon Black, Defender ATP), and forensics tools. Strong scripting or automation experience (Python, PowerShell, Bash) for hunting, enrichment, or data manipulation. Ability to design and facilitate purple team exercises and incident response tabletop simulations replicating advanced adversary techniques. Excellent communication and leadership skills; ability to brief executives, collaborate across functions, and guide junior team members. Certifications Advanced SANS certifications such as GCFA, GREM, GCIA, GNFA, GCTI, GSEC, or GCIH. Offensive certifications such as OSCP, OSEP, OSED, or CRTO. Recognition from hands-on platforms (e.g., Hack The Box, Cyber Defenders, TryHackMe) demonstrating technical proficiency. Cloud security certifications (AWS Security Specialty, Azure Security Engineer, GCP Professional Cloud Security Engineer) are a plus. #cybersecurity Additional
