  • Implement detection design and triage workflows using extensive experience in digital forensics and incident response
  • Translate threat modeling and attack simulations into durable, scalable detection as code solutions
  • Perform as a technical lead and maintain oversight in high impact incidents, including root cause analysis and remediation strategy
  • Collaborate with compliance, legal, and enterprise engineering teams to align detection and response efforts with regulatory standards such as NIST CSF, 800-53, and 800-171
  • Mentor cybersecurity engineers and foster a culture of innovation, accountability and resilience

Requirements:

  • 10+ years of experience in software engineering, product security, digital forensics, and cybersecurity architecture
