Threat Detection Engineer
As a Threat Detection Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in safeguarding enterprise systems by identifying, analyzing, and responding to cyber threats. You will design, implement, and maintain robust detection mechanisms across various security platforms, leveraging your expertise in security operations, threat intelligence, and incident response. Your responsibilities will include building and tuning detection rules, performing threat hunting across network and endpoint environments, and collaborating with other cybersecurity teams to enhance overall security posture.
In this role, you will analyze security alerts and incidents, investigate suspicious activity, and recommend improvements to detection capabilities. You will be expected to stay current with emerging threat actors, tactics, and vulnerabilities while regularly updating detection logic to address new risks. Strong experience with SIEM tools, EDR platforms, scripting languages (such as Python or PowerShell), and familiarity with MITRE ATT&CK framework are essential. The ideal candidate should possess excellent problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and the ability to communicate technical findings to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
A bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or a related field—or equivalent work experience—is required. Professional certifications such as GCIA, GCIH, or similar are highly valued. If you are passionate about proactively defending against cyber threats and thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment, this is an excellent opportunity to advance your career in cybersecurity.
