Job Description:

As a Senior Security Technologist, Incident Command, you are accountable for leading Uber’s most critical, complex, and high-impact security incidents end-to-end - from escalation to containment, recovery, and systemic remediation. You operate at the intersection of Fire Captain, NTSB Investigator, and hands-on technical practitioner. In the moment, you take command - setting strategy, assigning resources, and making high-consequence decisions under pressure. After the smoke clears, you drive deep technical investigation and post-incident analysis to ensure we understand not just what happened, but why it happened, and that meaningful, durable fixes are made.

Job Responsibility:

  • Command the highest severity and most complex security incidents across Uber and its subsidiaries, serving as the single accountable leader during active response
  • Participate in an on-call rotation where you are expected to make real-time decisions with incomplete information, balancing speed, risk, and impact
  • Act as the incident authority, not just a facilitator - forming hypotheses, setting strategy, and directing investigative focus
  • Transition seamlessly between executive-level incident leadership and hands-on technical investigation, including log analysis, system interrogation, and root cause validation
  • Serve as the primary interface to senior leadership during critical incidents, translating evolving technical realities into clear risk, impact, and decision frameworks
  • Build and maintain strong working relationships with global engineering, infrastructure, legal, privacy, and operations teams to enable fast, coordinated response
  • Conduct rigorous post-incident analysis in the spirit of an NTSB investigation - focused on systemic causes, contributing factors, and concrete prevention
  • Mentor and develop other responders and incident leaders, raising the organization’s ability to handle complex, time-critical security events
  • Lead and materially contribute to initiatives that mature Uber’s incident response program, including: High-fidelity incident simulations and technical tabletop exercises
  • Threat-informed response planning and scenario development
  • ‘Left of boom’ threat modeling to prevent incidents before they occur
  • Improvements to detection, containment, and response automation
  • Adoption of new investigative techniques and tooling, including AI-assisted workflows

Requirements:

  • 5+ years in security operations, detection, or incident response roles at scale, with demonstrated ownership of ambiguous, large, complex, high-impact incidents
  • Deep familiarity with modern attacker TTPs and how they manifest across logs, systems, networks, endpoints, and applications
  • Strong technical investigation skills - comfortable working directly with logs, telemetry, and raw system data to validate hypotheses and determine root cause
  • Experience briefing executives during active incidents, with the ability to clearly explain tradeoffs, risks, and recommended actions
  • Experience designing or running technical incident simulations (tabletops, purple team exercises, or similar) that stress real-world response capabilities
  • Experience building or leveraging AI-driven tooling to improve incident response posture, applying frontier technology to workflows such as triage, investigation, correlation, or decision support

Nice to have:

  • Demonstrated experience leading other responders through direct command during incidents and longer-term technical mentorship
  • Strong bias for action and continuous improvement
  • Experience responding to incidents in highly distributed, cloud-scale environments where blast radius and coordination complexity are significant
  • Broad security domain knowledge (infrastructure, endpoint, product, identity, data) and the ability to reason across them during incidents
  • Ability to script or code (Python, Go, or similar) to automate response tasks, prototype tooling, or close operational gaps
What we offer:
  • Eligible to participate in Uber's bonus program
  • May be offered an equity award & other types of comp
  • All full-time employees are eligible to participate in a 401(k) plan
  • Eligible for various benefits (see link)
