Security Engineer - (Detection & Response)
n
Own the platforms at the heart of up-to-date security operations

We're looking for a Senior Security Operations Engineer to take ownership of a sophisticated detection and response environment, spanning EDR/XDR, detection engineering, cloud security posture, SOAR and AI-assisted security operations.
n
This is a hands-on senior engineering role for someone who wants more than simply operating security tooling. You'll help shape how the platforms are configured, integrated and automated - building detection capability as code and helping develop the next generation of AI-assisted investigation and response.

Own and enhance the EDR/XDR platform stack end-to-end, including policy configuration, tuning, custom detection rules and real-time response.
n
Develop capabilities across identity threat detection and response (ITDR) and exposure management.
n
Build and improve detection engineering as code, working closely with security analysts.
n
Help develop AI-assisted investigation and triage capabilities, including agents within Charlotte AI / CrowdStrike.
n
Build feedback loops between detections, investigations and platform integrations to continually improve security outcomes.
n
Develop and integrate SOAR and automation capabilities within a Next-Gen SIEM environment.
n
Own cloud and SaaS security posture, including CSPM/CNAPP onboarding, policies, frameworks, runtime security, secrets and identity scanning.
n




Integrate cloud security posture capabilities with SIEM and the broader security operations ecosystem.

Why consider this opportunity?
n
This is an opportunity to take genuine ownership of a modern SecOps platform environment rather than simply maintaining existing tooling.
