Required

You have experience designing and implementing Insider Threat technologies (such as Security Information Event Management - SIEM, User Behavioral Analytics - UBA, Data Loss Prevention - DLP) and an understanding of investigations and/or the intelligence cycle

You are comfortable manipulating logs, tables, and data lakes to engineer custom detections and dashboards

You’ve mastered SQL and coding languages like Python and regularly manipulate logs to create custom alerts and automations with SOAR

You are comfortable working cross-functionally with infrastructure, IT, and response teams to design and implement technical controls

You are actively aware of the insider threat landscape, and understand the legal, regulatory, and ethical considerations of working with sensitive information and situations

You are discreet, thoughtful, and seek to coordinate systemic, cross functional solutions to mitigate risk

You are adept at translating complex problems into ‘byte-sized’, readily implemented (and preferably automated) solutions

You have excellent verbal and written communication skills. Other team members ask for your input to communicate clearly and concisely and you are comfortable composing briefs and assessments consumed by leadership and training others

You prefer to play as a team and are equally comfortable as the ‘novice’ or the ‘expert

You know that people aren’t stupid, but everyone makes mistakes. Your high degree of empathy means that your coworkers trust you to help tackle their security problems, because you never come across as judgmental or condescending

You are a unicorn who is equally comfortable behind the keyboard or in front of security leaders

You bring 5-10 years or more of combined experience in security/technology or other analytic roles

Preferred

Unicorns welcome! You would bring a diverse perspective to the team: for example, maybe you took an unconventional route to get into your current security career

You’re familiar with blockchains, cryptocurrency, and onchain projects (or at least a good story about how you thought about investing in Bitcoin in 2014 but decided not to)

You love crafting metrics that make the intangible tangible

You’ve got experience in one or more of the following areas: incident response, data protection, risk management, counterintelligence, fraud detection, intellectual property theft, access and identity management, or IT engineering
