• Partner closely with SOC Monitoring, Incident Response, Threat Intelligence, SIEM Engineering, Cloud, Identity, Network, OT, IT Infrastructure, Vulnerability Management, GRC, and business stakeholders.

Threat Detection Engineering

• Design, develop, tune, and optimize threat detection logic across SIEM, EDR, identity, cloud, email, network, OT, SaaS, and other security platforms.
• Personally own a portfolio of high-impact detections focused on complex use cases, crown jewel risks, advanced adversary behaviors, and top enterprise threats.
• Translate adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures into actionable analytics using MITRE ATT&CK, kill-chain models, threat intelligence, incident findings, red team results, vulnerability exposure, and business risk.
• Conduct detection gap analysis and threat modeling to prioritize improvements based on exposure, telemetry readiness, attacker behavior, business impact, and operational value.
• Build and maintain detection validation practices, including test cases, replay or verification methods, regression checks, tuning evidence, performance monitoring, and analyst feedback loops.
• Ensure detections are operationally useful by including clear context, enrichment, severity guidance, response steps, escalation paths, and containment recommendations.
• Measure and expand detection coverage across ATT&CK tactics and techniques, critical assets, identities, cloud platforms, OT environments, and enterprise telemetry sources.
• Stay current with emerging threats, adversary tradecraft, tools, vulnerabilities, and detection methods.

SIEM, SOAR, and Security Automation

• Lead the design, development, and continuous improvement of SIEM and SOAR-driven detection and response workflows.
• Build and optimize SIEM content, including correlation rules, notable events, dashboards, risk-based alerts, data models, investigation views, and alert enrichment.
• Develop and mature SOAR playbooks that automate enrichment, triage, evidence collection, case creation, containment recommendations, response actions, and analyst decision support.
• Identify repetitive, high-volume, or high-value SOC activities that can be safely and effectively automated.
• Define automation standards covering human-in-the-loop approvals, reversible actions, audit trails, exception handling, failure modes, escalation criteria, and rollback considerations.
• Partner with SOC and Incident Response teams to ensure automation improves investigation speed, consistency, quality, and response outcomes without creating unnecessary operational risk.
• Measure automation effectiveness using metrics such as analyst time saved, touch reduction, playbook success rate, case consistency, response acceleration, and manual effort reduction.
• Drive integrations across SIEM, SOAR, EDR, email security, identity platforms, threat intelligence, ITSM, cloud security, network security, PAM, DLP/CASB, and OT monitoring platforms.

Detection Lifecycle, Governance, and Program Management

• Build and mature the detection and automation lifecycle from intake through retirement.
• Own standards for request intake, prioritization, design, build, peer review, testing, deployment, tuning, production monitoring, and continuous improvement.
• Create and maintain use case standards, templates, documentation requirements, acceptance criteria, release gates, change history, and ownership models.
• Manage the detection and automation roadmap based on threat intelligence, incident trends, MITRE coverage gaps, telemetry gaps, crown jewel risks, regulatory requirements, and business priorities.
• Develop and maintain program metrics that demonstrate detection coverage, alert fidelity, false-positive trends, automation value, telemetry readiness, backlog health, delivery throughput, and investigation quality.
• Partner with stakeholders to identify and resolve telemetry gaps, data quality issues, logging deficiencies, enrichment needs, and unclear ownership across the detection and response ecosystem.
• Ensure detection and automation practices support internal policies, audit expectations, and applicable regulatory requirements.
• Maintain audit-ready documentation and evidence, including rationale, test results, tuning notes, change history, ownership, approvals, validation results, and monitoring insights.
• Communicate detection strategy, risk coverage, maturity, roadmap, and outcomes clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, including executive leadership.
