As a Security Engineer, Detection & Response at Robinhood’s SecOps team in Menlo Park, CA, you will work closely with SOC analysts and security engineers to strengthen detection coverage and response readiness by designing and improving detection logic, analyzing security telemetry across cloud and endpoint systems, and reducing false positives. Your day-to-day responsibilities include investigating security alerts using SIEM, EDR, and cloud security platforms, developing and testing detection rules with query languages like KQL or SQL-like syntax, correlating data from multiple sources to identify attack patterns, and contributing to automation efforts by building SOAR playbooks. You will also document incidents and participate in post-incident reviews to enhance detection and response processes. This role requires 2–4 years of experience in security operations, familiarity with SIEMs and EDR platforms, strong analytical skills for threat hunting, and excellent communication abilities. Experience with AWS, Okta, Kubernetes, Google Workspace security tools, and developing software for detection and response tooling is a plus.
