About the Role
Job Summary Catch attackers in minutes, not days. Test our own defenses at attacker speed, continuously. The Senior Threat Engineer is a hands‑on, high‑impact role within the Enterprise Defense & Automation (EDA) team. You will engineer AI‑powered detection and response capabilities that compress attacker dwell time from days to minutes, and you will continuously red team those same defenses at attacker speed so that gaps are found by us long before they are found by an adversary. The role sits at the intersection of threat detection engineering, adversary emulation, and applied AI. On the defensive side you will build detections and AI‑assisted response paths that triage, decide, and act autonomously within policy, moving security operations from “alert and investigate” to detect, decide, and act. On the offensive side you will run continuous, automated adversary emulation against production controls, generating a constant stream of evidence about what our defenses actually stop. This is a builder and problem‑solver role. You will write detection logic, adversary emulation content, and automated response playbooks; instrument them with measurable outcomes such as mean time to detect, mean time to contain, and detection coverage against MITRE ATT and use AI to raise signal fidelity rather than alert volume. Every detection you ship is expected to be tested by an emulation you also ship. Success requires strong threat fundamentals, fluency across modern detection and response platforms, and the discipline to deliver production‑grade capability that holds up in real‑world, adversarial conditions. Guardrails matter as much as speed: confidence thresholds, blast‑radius limits, and rollback paths are part of the design, not an afterthought. If you are energized by hunting real adversaries, teaching machines to respond faster than they can, and attacking your own work before anyone else gets the chance, this role puts you at the forefront of modern cyber defense.
