  • Demonstrated experience using AI/ML tools, LLMs, or automation frameworks to build or improve security detection and response capabilities
  • Experience developing or refining a secure Hybrid-Cloud architecture
  • Proficiency in scripting or programming (Python, PowerShell, or similar) for automation and tooling development
  • Strong knowledge of cloud security services in AWS and Azure
  • Proficiency integrating security-oriented technology platforms
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to confidently present products, deliverables, analyses, and/or issues
  • Possess a problem solver mindset, with the ability to understand a situation or problem and think critically to make decisions or come up with solutions
  • B e comfortable managing upward, including being a proactive communicator and asking for help when needed
  • Have confidence and be able to establish valuable relationships across departments
