Detection & Continuous Improvement

• Turn incident findings into new or improved detections, logging coverage, and visibility.
• Lead blameless post-incident reviews and drive remediation items to completion.
• Run tabletop exercises and simulations to test readiness and find gaps.

Required Skills & Experience

• Proven experience leading or serving as technical lead on security incidents in a cloud or SaaS environment.
• Strong hands-on investigation skills with SIEM, cloud audit logs, and log-based analysis. Comfortable working through large datasets under time pressure.
• Proficiency writing production-quality scripts or tools in Python, Go, or Bash for investigation and automation.
• Solid knowledge of cloud architecture and security, especially Google Cloud Platform (IAM, audit logging, GKE, networking).
• Working knowledge of Kubernetes and containers, including how to investigate and contain compromised workloads.
• Understanding of identity systems, SaaS architectures, and common cloud attack paths (credential theft, privilege escalation, supply chain, token abuse).
• Familiarity with software engineering fundamentals, CI/CD pipelines, and package ecosystems, so you can work effectively with Engineering on code-level fixes.
• Understanding of IR frameworks and lifecycle (for example NIST 800-61), plus the vulnerability lifecycle and exploitability analysis.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience building or operating SOAR or other response automation platforms.
• Digital forensics experience with cloud, Linux hosts, or containers.
• Experience with threat intelligence, threat hunting, or security research.
• Experience with bug bounty programs or coordinated vulnerability disclosure.
• Familiarity with detection-as-code practices and writing detection rules.
• Experience in fast-paced, cloud-native, or AI/ML-driven environments.
• Relevant certifications (such as GCIH, GCFA, GCFR), or equivalent hands-on experience.
  

What We Value

• Curiosity & initiative: Strong desire to understand attacker behaviors, emerging threats, and how they apply to real-world systems.
  
• Speed & analytical rigor: Ability to quickly assess high-risk vulnerabilities with clear, evidence-based reasoning.
  
• Collaboration: Comfort working across cross-functional teams spanning Security, SRE, Engineering, and Infrastructure.
  
• Clear communication: Ability to explain findings, risks, and mitigation strategies to stakeholders at all levels.
  
• Ownership mindset: Takes initiative to drive investigations, improvements, and remediations to completion.
  
• Continuous learning: Passion for staying up to date on new vulnerabilities, exploit trends, and cloud-native security best practices.
