  • Apply deep expertise in threat hunting and intelligence, enriching detection capabilities across the enterprise, and optimizing containment and response measures.
Collaboration & Communication:
  • Work closely with IT, engineering, legal, compliance, and product teams to address security issues, design security solutions, and mitigate risks within both traditional and cloud-based environments.
  • Communicate security risks, vulnerabilities, and threats clearly to senior leadership, collaborating to define and execute remediation plans.
  • Serve as a primary liaison with external partners, vendors, and regulatory bodies during incident response engagements.
Training, Mentoring & Leadership:
  • Provide training and mentorship to junior security team members, fostering a culture of detection and response excellence.
  • Conduct tabletop exercises, simulations, and prototyping of security solutions.
Compliance & Regulatory Requirements:
  • Ensure all detection and response activities comply with relevant industry regulations (e.g., HIPAA, GxP, GDPR) and internal security policies.
  • Support audits and assessments, providing evidence of security controls and incident response capabilities.
