What will you be doing?

In this role, you'll be instrumental in crafting the best-in-class detection and response (XDR) program focused on AWS security, while continuously improving our processes and technologies. You’ll collaborate cross-functionally, not only reacting to incidents but proactively identifying and integrating new data sources, writing code to automate controls, and helping the organization conduct business securely—without unnecessary roadblocks.

• Design and implement aggressive automation for detection and response workflows using services like AWS Lambda, Tines, Databricks, and other orchestration tools.
• Integrate new data sources discovered during investigations into the SIEM / XDR pipeline, ensuring no valuable telemetry is missed.
• Build and maintain incident response plans, playbooks, and documentation rooted in AWS best practices, with flexibility for business impact considerations.
• Develop detection and integration code, primarily using Python, with an SRE mindset—building maintainable, scalable, and testable solutions.
• Act as a security advisor, weighing the business implications of controls (e.g., assessing pros and cons of implementing broad blocks).
• Proactively conduct threat hunting and root cause analysis to address vulnerabilities.
• Stay informed on emerging threats, adapting our XDR strategies accordingly.
• Engage in open communication with stakeholders, seeking clarification as needed and aligning efforts with CISO and business goals before execution.
