Responsibilities
Incident Response & Triage: Lead the identification, triage, and validation of security incidents through various telemetry sources, acting as the ultimate escalation point for the SOC
Strategic Preparedness: Drive organizational incident readiness by designing and executing practical response exercises (tabletops and purple teaming) to ensure first responders are prepared at all levels of our organization
Telemetry Optimization: Partner with engineering, product security, and detection engineering teams to tune existing telemetry sources to a high true-positive rate, reducing noise and increasing detection efficacy
Offensive Security Partnership: Collaborate closely with the Offensive Security team to identify visibility gaps and ensure proper coverage against modern threat actor TTPs. Partner with product security, engineering, detection engineering, and other applicable business units to close these gaps rather than treating them as a blocker
Continuous Improvement & Leadership: Lead cross-functional Post-Incident Reviews (PIRs) to extract critical lessons learned; own the lifecycle of resulting remediation tasks, driving specific tooling and process enhancements that harden organizational defenses and response against future threats
Stakeholder Communication: Develop and present comprehensive reports and "lessons learned" to stakeholders at all levels following major incidents or exercises
Documentation: Create and maintain playbooks, system configurations, and incident response standards to ensure scalability and supportability
