Ntsb Jobs (NOW HIRING)

**About the Role**As a Senior Security Technologist, Incident Command, you are accountable for leading Uber's most critical, complex, and high-impact security incidents end-to-end - from escalation to containment, recovery, and systemic remediation.You operate at the intersection of Fire Captain, NTSB Investigator, and hands-on technical practitioner. In the moment, you take command - setting strategy, assigning resources, and making high-consequence decisions under pressure. After the smoke clears, you drive deep technical investigation and post-incident analysis to ensure we understand not just what happened, but why it happened, and that meaningful, durable fixes are made.This is not a passive coordination role

You are expected to be technically credible, decisive in ambiguity, and comfortable owning outcomes when there is no playbook. You will shape how Uber responds to security incidents at scale - raising the technical bar, building and modernizing tooling and workflows, and influencing teams beyond Engineering Security.**What the Candidate Will Need / Bonus Points**\-\-\-\- What the Candidate Will Do ----01.
