Job Description

Aurora is scaling its autonomous trucking operations, and we need someone who makes our security tools actually work, not just deployed, but deeply configured, continuously tuned, and fully leveraged. This role is for the practitioner who has spent their career living inside security platforms. This is not a software engineering role. It's a role for an elite security operator — someone with the instincts of a seasoned SOC analyst and the technical depth to own the platforms that power detection, response, and protection at enterprise scale.

Job Responsibility

  • Own the operational health, configuration, and continuous improvement of Aurora's enterprise security platform stack
  • Develop and refine detection rules, correlation logic, and alert policies
  • Conduct proactive threat hunting across Aurora's security telemetry
  • Serve as the deepest internal expert on Aurora's enterprise security tooling
  • Participate in the team's on-call rotation, leading deep-dive investigations into security alerts and incidents
  • Continuously audit and validate that existing security controls are configured correctly
  • Maintain operational runbooks, detection documentation, and platform configuration records

Requirements

  • 12+ years of hands-on experience in enterprise security operations, security platform administration, or a senior SOC engineering role
  • Expert-level proficiency administering and operating at least two enterprise security platforms (e.g., CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Splunk, Panther, Sentinel, Jamf, Kandji/Iru, Puppet, WorkspaceONE, Intune, Zscaler, Okta, Proofpoint, Wiz, osquery)
  • Demonstrated ability to tune and optimize security platforms beyond out-of-the-box configurations
  • Strong log analysis and threat hunting skills
  • Experience conducting thorough incident investigations
  • Ability to assess security control effectiveness
  • Comfort working under pressure in ambiguous, fast-moving situations with competing priorities

Nice to have

  • Scripting ability for automation, log parsing, or workflow improvement (Python, Bash, or similar)
  • Deep familiarity with MITRE ATT&CK as an operational tool
  • Experience with AWS security telemetry (CloudTrail, GuardDuty, Security Hub)
  • Familiarity with Zero Trust and identity-centric security models
  • Platform-specific certifications such as CrowdStrike Certified Falcon Administrator, Splunk Core Certified Power User, or equivalent
  • Practitioner certifications like GCIH, GCIA, GCFE, or GCFA

What we offer

  • Annual bonus
  • Equity compensation
  • Benefits

Requirements
Requirements
  • 12+ years of hands-on experience in enterprise security operations, security platform administration, or a senior SOC engineering role — with a career built on deep operational ownership of security tooling rather than software development.
  • Expert-level proficiency administering and operating at least two enterprise security platforms (e.g., CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Splunk, Panther, Sentinel, Jamf, Kandji/Iru, Puppet, WorkspaceONE, Intune, Zscaler, Okta, Proofpoint, Wiz, osquery), with strong working knowledge across several others.
  • Demonstrated ability to tune and optimize security platforms beyond out-of-the-box configurations — writing custom detection logic, adjusting policy sets, and validating control effectiveness.
  • Strong log analysis and threat hunting skills: you know how to build a hypothesis, write the query, follow the thread, and know when to escalate.
  • Experience conducting thorough incident investigations — triage, containment, root cause analysis, and post-incident review — and communicating findings clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Ability to assess security control effectiveness: not just "is this tool deployed" but "is it configured correctly, covering the right scope, and generating actionable signal."
  • Comfort working under pressure in ambiguous, fast-moving situations with competing priorities.
Job Responsibility
Job Responsibility
  • Own the operational health, configuration, and continuous improvement of Aurora's enterprise security platform stack — including EDR/XDR, MDM, SIEM, DLP, IAM/IGA, DNS security, Email security, and PKI — ensuring each tool is tuned, policy-complete, and delivering reliable signal.
  • Develop and refine detection rules, correlation logic, and alert policies, reducing noise while ensuring Aurora maintains high-fidelity coverage against real threats.
  • Conduct proactive threat hunting across Aurora's security telemetry — forming hypotheses, querying logs, and investigating anomalies before they surface as incidents.
  • Serve as the deepest internal expert on Aurora's enterprise security tooling, acting as the escalation point for complex platform issues, misconfigurations, and detection failures.
  • Participate in the team's on-call rotation, leading deep-dive investigations into security alerts and incidents and driving triage, containment, and root cause analysis.
  • Continuously audit and validate that existing security controls are configured to actually do what they're supposed to do — not just deployed and forgotten.
  • Maintain operational runbooks, detection documentation, and platform configuration records, ensuring the team can operate consistently and scale institutional knowledge.
