Job Description

Your Career

You will play a pivotal role in providing strategic direction and designing innovative security solutions to disrupt cyber threats targeting Palo Alto Networks. Being embedded into the internal Security Operations Center (SOC), this position provides a unique opportunity to influence all technical and non-technical information security controls within Palo Alto Networks. This insight allows you to identify and address the most impactful challenges, contributing to the continuous improvement of our security posture company-wide.

While part of the Security Operations Team, it's important to note that this role is not responsible for handling day-to-day alerts, and will not be part of the on-call rotation.

Your Impact

  • Act as a subject matter expert in all technical Information Security initiatives, especially those originating from the SOC, such as threat hunting, detection engineering, and purple teaming
  • Envision, architect, and design groundbreaking security projects - As the driving force behind these initiatives, you will not only build robust solutions but also actively create an environment that fosters innovation and ensures the successful completion of each project, contributing to the continuous evolution of Palo Alto Networks' cybersecurity capabilities
  • Provide guidance and expertise to cross-functional teams, including senior architects and principal engineers, fostering a culture of knowledge sharing and skill development in order to assess security risks and develop strategies to effectively disrupt attackers
  • Stay informed about the latest security trends, vulnerabilities, and technologies to ensure proactive defense measures and share insights company-wide
  • Employ creative techniques to discover vulnerabilities, and implement innovative security solutions that challenge attacker assumptions, dramatically increasing their cost to attack
  • Work closely with product development teams to integrate security features into our products, ensuring security is embedded in the entire development lifecycle
  • Participate in incident response activities and contribute to the continuous improvement of our security posture across the company
  • Forge and maintain alliances in and out of InfoSec
Qualifications

Your Experience

  • Minimum 7+ years of impactful, technically demanding InfoSec work, including 3+ years as the lead for complex, full-scope red team assessments
  • Proven record of identifying unique gaps and designing and implementing projects that address them in an automated, easy-to-maintain fashion
  • Broad and deep technical knowledge typically associated with the A-Team of a fast-paced, boutique security consultancy
  • Excellent analytical and problem solving skills with attention to detail
  • Resilience necessary to uncover true root causes, regardless of the nature and depth of associated rabbit holes
  • Strong communication skills, both spoken and written
  • Exceptional proactivity in order to discover where your skills are needed
  • Courage to insert yourself into any project and convince people to do the right thing, regardless of their level in the company

Education

  • Bachelor's degree from four-year college or university or equivalent training, education, and experience in information / cyber security, computer systems, IT, etc. or equivalent military experience required
