TL;DR · Security Operations Analyst

The Security Operations Analyst joins the Detection and Response team to serve as a watchtower for critical defense technologies. This role involves monitoring and responding to adversarial activity, triaging incidents across phishing, endpoints, cloud infrastructure, and SaaS applications. The analyst will build and optimize detection signatures and response playbooks using detection-as-code principles while conducting threat hunting and data normalization to identify anomalies. Key responsibilities include participating in threat modeling, managing feedback loops for alert fine-tuning, and performing incident investigations during on-call rotations. Required technical skills include Python development for automating SOC operations, proficiency in SIEM languages like SPL, KQL, or SQL, and experience analyzing large datasets in a data lake environment. The role requires knowledge of attacker TTPs across Windows, Linux, MacOS, AWS, and Azure to protect defense systems.

What you'll do

  • Triage and respond to security incidents across phishing, endpoints, cloud infrastructure, and SaaS applications.
  • Build and optimize detection signatures and response playbooks using detection-as-code principles.
  • Manage the feedback loop for detections to fine-tune alerts and reduce false positives.
  • Conduct threat modeling with cross-functional partners to identify and mitigate security weaknesses.
  • Perform threat hunting and data normalization to identify anomalous patterns in large datasets.
  • Participate in an on-call rotation to investigate security events and communicate findings to stakeholders.
  • Develop Python code to automate various SOC operations within a shared codebase.

What we're looking for

  • Must be able to obtain and hold a U.S. Top Secret security clearance.
  • Experience in security monitoring, log analysis, and detection engineering across endpoint, network, and various application sources.
  • Experience in Python development for automating SOC operations within a shared codebase.
  • Proficiency in one or more SIEM languages such as SPL, KQL, or SQL.
  • Experience conducting analysis in a data lake environment.
  • Broad practical security knowledge across endpoint, network, identity, application, and cloud infrastructure.
  • Knowledge of attacker tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) across Windows, Linux, MacOS, AWS, and Azure.
  • Strong communication skills and experience collaborating with internal and external stakeholders.
  • Experience conducting incident response in the Cloud (AWS, Azure, GCP) (preferred).
  • Digital Forensics and/or reverse engineering experience (preferred).
