Job description

Job Summary:
Google is seeking a Security Engineer for their Detection team, which is responsible for maintaining the safest operating environment for users and developers. In this role, you will design and implement advanced detection mechanisms and participate in global operations to respond to security events.
Responsibilities:
• Design, implement, and maintain high-fidelity detections across critical infrastructure focus areas, including compute (GKE), supply chain, IAM/API (LOAS, Cloud IAM), and network.
• Partner with program teams to deploy agentic detection engineering workflows, shifting defenses from "Detect and Respond" to machine-speed "Infer and Interrupt."
• Ground detection logic in factual threat data by leveraging proven exploit paths from Red teams, Orange teams, and the Vulnerability Reward Program (VRP).
• Reduce manual triage toil and operational burden by optimizing feedback loops between prevention, detection, and response.
• Participate in a 24/7 global operation that hunts for and responds to security events on Google's networks. Perform investigations on a wide variety of events from various sources to determine whether they pose a threat to Google.
Qualifications:
Required:
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience.
• 1 year of experience with security assessments or security design reviews or threat modeling.
• 1 year of coding experience in one or more general purpose languages.
• Experience with security engineering, computer and network security and security protocols.
Preferred:
• Experience in responding to security problems in target-rich environments, looking at security alerts, front-line analysis, and response.
• Expertise with signals development, threat hunting, and threat modeling.
• Expertise in the analysis of large data sets and intrusion detection systems.
• Knowledge of modern AI/ML frameworks and tools, including experience in prompt engineering.
Company:
Google specializes in internet-related services and products, including search, advertising, and software. It is a sub-organization of Alphabet. Founded in 1998, the company is headquartered in Mountain View, USA, with a team of 10001+ employees. The company is currently Late Stage.
