About the role
Role Summary
As an Analyst, you will operate as both an alert responder and a hands on detection engineer.
This role goes beyond traditional monitoring - you will investigate and triage threats and actively
improve detection capabilities by closing gaps, tuning noisy rules and deprecating
ineffective detections. You will ensure we has high-quality, high-fidelity detection coverage
across the infrastructure.
Key Responsibilities
• Lead end to end investigation and triage of alerts with clear, high quality documentation
across both on-premises infrastructure and cloud environments ensuring equal depth
and rigor in each area.
• Collaborate with cross functional teams and operate as a frontline defender in a 24×7
setting.
• Identify detection gaps and implement improvements through new or updated
detection rules.
• Reduce false positives by tuning low value alerts and deprecating obsolete detections.
• Develop, review, and validate detection logic against MITRE ATT&CK aligned TTPs.
• Contribute to new use case development based on attacker behavior and maintain
assisted playbooks and SOPs.
• Identify opportunities and implement automation and AI workflows within Detection
Engineering pipelines to optimize operations.
