TL;DR · Senior Security Engineering Manager, Agentic Detection & Threat Hunting

The Senior Security Engineering Manager - Agentic Detection & Threat Hunting leads a team within the Detection team of Apple Services Engineering. This technical leadership role involves managing experienced engineers to build a fleet-scale detection and response platform that sits above on-host agents. The manager will oversee the fusion of signals from hosts, applications, cloud control planes, and identity into high-confidence security findings. Key responsibilities include applying agentic AI to detection, triage, response, and threat hunting to automate tasks beyond human scale. Required skills include experience with production software, data systems, and autonomous GenAI workflows. The role requires deep domain expertise in security detection, threat hunting, and large-scale data processing platforms like Spark or Databricks to solve complex security problems across the datacenter fleet.

What you'll do

  • Lead a team of engineers to build a fleet-scale detection and response platform.
  • Fuse signals from hosts, applications, cloud control planes, and identity into high-confidence security findings.
  • Deploy agentic AI workflows to automate detection, triage, response, and threat hunting.
  • Manage the technical architecture and design decisions for large-scale security data pipelines.
  • Translate threat hunting results into improved automated detections and response actions.
  • Oversee the production deployment of autonomous GenAI workflows within the security domain.
  • Manage team performance, coaching, and hiring while maintaining high engineering standards.
  • Coordinate with partner teams to manage platform dependencies and operational requirements.

What we're looking for

  • 10+ years of experience managing engineering teams.
  • 8+ years of professional experience building and shipping production software or data systems.
  • Experience deploying standalone GenAI or agentic workflows to production for detection, response, or threat hunting.
  • Deep domain experience in security detection and response, including attacker behavior and telemetry analysis.
  • Experience with large-scale security data and detection platforms, including pipelines, correlation, and alert handling.
  • Experience leading threat hunting or detection engineering teams and turning results into improved detections (preferred).
  • Experience with Spark, Databricks, or similar large-scale data processing platforms and streaming alert pipelines (preferred).
  • Experience designing automated or semi-automated response and containment (preferred).
