Senior Threat Hunter

The Threat Hunting Team is the face of security operations for Red Canary, a Zscaler company. We are the customer’s unique ally in helping secure their organization. Our team helps the customer understand the full scope of information available to them and make informed decisions about their environment. As the customer-facing role and voice of Red Canary’s day-to-day security interactions with our customer we play a myriad of roles.

We act as a trusted partner and an extension of our customers’ security teams to help them to understand and mature their overall security programs. When threats are detected in customer environments, we help by taking ownership of the customer's success and providing any resources they need to remediate and recover. And we proactively hunt for potential cyber threats in customer environments, using our findings to both inform customers and improve future detections. 

We're looking for an experienced Senior Threat Hunter to join our Threat Hunting team. Reporting to the Manager, Threat Hunting, you'll be responsible for:

• Identifying, scoping, and managing ongoing customer incidents, developing remediation plans, and augmenting the customer’s security gaps with the necessary skills and resources to improve their security maturity
• Partnering with the Detection Engineering, Intelligence, and Research teams to further investigate identified or emerging threats relevant to our customers
• Augmenting the automated detection of Red Canary’s technical stack with human driven hunting, to identify anomalous behaviors within customer environments, and using your hunting results to drive innovation of Red Canary’s detection capabilities
• Proactively mentoring other Threat Hunters by sharing knowledge, skills and experiences and helping them to grow and develop their own skills

What We’re Looking for (Minimum Qualifications) 

• 6+ years of working in the cyber security industry
• Proven ability to independently investigate and analyze threats to identify malicious activity, with expertise in EDR tools and Information Security controls across Endpoint, Cloud, SaaS, and Identity platforms.
• Excellent communication skills (written and verbal) to convey complex technical topics, both as a mentor and under pressure in customer-facing interactions
• Ability to independently and proactively research and hunt for potential cyber threats across a wide degree of customer environments

What Will Make You Stand Out (Preferred Qualifications)

• Foundational knowledge of Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR) processes
• Development experience with Python and Jupyter Notebooks
• Experience building meaningful relationships with Enterprise-level customers
