Senior Information Security Engineer (Detection, Automation & AI)
Job description
We are seeking a Senior Information Security Engineer who views security operations through an engineering lens. In this role, you won't just stare at a pane of glass watching alerts roll in; you will be the architect behind how those alerts are generated, triaged, and automated. You will lead our detection engineering efforts, build robust automation pipelines using SOAR and APIs, and pioneer the integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) to supercharge our incident response and alert-triage workflows. If you love Python, Linux, AWS, and treating security operations as code, this role is for you.
Job requirements
- 8+ years of dedicated experience in Information Security, Security Operations, or DevSecOps engineering roles.
- Deep, hands-on experience with either Splunk (SPL, Enterprise Security) or ElasticSIEM (ES|QL, KQL, Kibana) for log analysis and detection creation.
- Strong proficiency in Python and a proven track record of building security tools, scripts, and automation pipelines via APIs.
- Proven experience designing and maintaining automated playbooks in a modern SOAR platform (e.g., Cortex XSOAR, Tines, etc.)
- Practical experience (or highly advanced personal projects) utilizing LLM APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, AWS Bedrock) to ingest, process, or summarize textual data—specifically applied to security logs or triage…
- Solid understanding of core AWS security services (GuardDuty, CloudTrail, IAM, VPC Flow Logs).
- Strong familiarity with industry-standard Incident Response lifecycles (NIST SP 800-61, SANS PICERL). Experience as an Incident Commander, Incident Handler strongly desired.
- Certifications such as CISSP, GCIA, GCIH, or AWS Certified Security - Specialty.
