- Partner with Security Operations teams to develop monitoring strategies informed by attacker investigation findings.
- Drive security monitoring and incident response for emerging Web3 product launches.
- Mentor peers, share knowledge, and participate in 24/7 rotational coverage across time zones.
Requirements
- 3+ years of hands-on security operations experience, including incident response, alert triage, and network/host forensics across cloud, SaaS, and container environments.
- Ability to identify detection gaps and build coverage across diverse log sources, including cloud platforms, SaaS applications, container orchestration, and M&A integrations.
- Proficiency scripting automation workflows using Python, Bash, or an equivalent language to reduce manual investigation and response time.
- Working knowledge of networking fundamentals and Windows, Linux, and macOS operating systems sufficient to analyze host- and network-level artifacts.
- Experience working with SIEM platforms and threat intelligence tooling at scale, including tuning alerts and improving signal-to-noise ratios.
