The Principal Engineer will lead proactive threat-hunting operations and enhance our organization's security posture.

This position requires deep understanding of technologies and adversary TTPs that threaten them. Responsibilities include leading proactive threat-hunting operations to detect and mitigate emerging cyber threats, developing hypothesis driven threat hunting methodologies based on internal and external threat intelligence and historical patterns, analyzing large data sets from SIEM, EDR, NDR and other tools to uncover hidden threats, designing and implementing custom threat detection rules and behavioral analytic models, and providing executive level briefings and reports on advanced threats, attack patterns, and mitigation strategies. Requirements include 8+ years of experience in threat hunting, incident response, and/or threat intelligence, extensive knowledge of TTP-based hunting techniques using frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK, the cyber kill chain, and the diamond model, expert capabilities performing investigations using security tools such as SIEM, EDR, and NDR, proficiency in scripting and query languages for investigations and automation, and strong communication and analytic skills with the ability to translate complex findings into simple to understand risk assessments and course of actions. Preferences include relevant certifications such as GCTI, GREM, or OSCP, experience with multiple operating systems including Windows, Mac OS, and Unix/Linux, experience working in a team-oriented and collaborative IT environment, being highly self-motivated and able to work independently, and background in the financial industry.
