Responsibilities

Design, build, and deploy agentic AI frameworks to accelerate the full incident response lifecycle, from initial detection and triage to containment and eradication
Develop and refine sophisticated SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response) playbooks that leverage AI prompts for dynamic, context-aware decision-making and automated remediation actions
Integrate AI agents into existing security platforms (SIEM, EDR, XDR) to provide real-time analysis of security events, automated evidence gathering, and recommended response actions for SOC analysts
Create and manage AI-powered systems to proactively hunt for threats by analyzing vast datasets for anomalous patterns, novel attack techniques, and indicators of compromise (IOCs) that evade traditional detection methods
Develop AI models and prompts to automate the collection, correlation, and analysis of threat intelligence from multiple sources, providing actionable insights tailored to our threat landscape
Build AI agents capable of contextualizing threat intelligence, predicting potential attack vectors, and recommending proactive defensive adjustments
Implement AI-driven workflows to automate the identification, prioritization, and remediation of vulnerabilities across the enterprise
Utilize AI to analyze vulnerability data in conjunction with threat intelligence and asset criticality, creating a dynamic, risk-based prioritization model
Develop SOAR rules and AI prompts to orchestrate mitigation efforts, reducing the mean time to remediate (MTTR)
Act as the subject matter expert for integrating generative and agentic AI into the SOC's toolset and daily operations
Collaborate with security analysts to identify and develop custom AI-powered tools and automations that address specific operational challenges and reduce manual effort
Continuously evaluate and experiment with emerging AI technologies and security platforms to ensure our SOC remains at the cutting edge of security innovation
