The SecOps Modernization & Agentic SOC Manager joins the Cyber Resilience & Defense practice to help clients improve SOC capabilities against AI-enabled threats. This role involves leading end-to-end modernization engagements, including current-state assessments, target-state designs, and technology selection. You will develop maturity roadmaps, operating models, and playbook frameworks while overseeing threat detection engineering and triage workflow redesigns. Key responsibilities include integrating SIEM, SOAR, TIP, EDR, NDR, and UEBA platforms and advising on LLM-specific attack surfaces like prompt injection and model poisoning. You will utilize technologies such as Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk, Palo Alto, CrowdStrike, and Google SecOps. The position requires expertise in log ingestion architectures, threat intelligence frameworks, and AI governance to build scalable SOC offerings and mentor junior team members on these emerging security capabilities.

What you'll do

  • Lead end-to-end SOC modernization engagements from current-state assessment through technology selection and implementation.
  • Develop SOC maturity roadmaps, operating models, staffing models, and playbook frameworks for client environments.
  • Quality-assure threat detection engineering, triage workflow redesign, and metrics/KPI framework development.
  • Lead the integration of SIEM, SOAR, TIP, EDR, NDR, and UEBA platforms into modernization programs.
  • Advise clients on securing AI systems by identifying LLM-specific attack surfaces like prompt injection and model poisoning.
  • Build and scale SOC modernization offerings, including methodologies, toolkits, and frameworks like NIST and ISO.
  • Translate complex defensive security requirements into clear, business-relevant narratives for C-suite audiences.
  • Develop and mentor senior consultants, managers, and architects on the team.

What we're looking for

  • Minimum of 6 years of experience in security operations across multiple domains.
  • Minimum 3 years of experience in designing, optimizing, and assessing log ingestion architectures for hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
  • Minimum 3 years of experience in business development, including $2M+ in annual bookings or pipeline ownership.
  • Experience with threat intelligence frameworks and detection engineering methodologies.
  • Experience on any leading SIEM/SOAR platform.
  • Minimum of 2 years in a leadership role in the SOC, Security Architecture, or equivalent consulting roles.
  • Minimum of 1 year of experience in at least one Secure AI, Agentic coding, AI architecture, or AI governance framework.
  • Bachelor's degree, or an associate's degree with 6 years of experience, or 12 years of work experience.
  • Executive communication skills to distill technical complexity for C-suite audiences.
  • Advanced credentials such as GCIA, GDET, GCIH, CISSP, CISM or similar executive-level certifications (preferred).
