We're looking for a Manager to lead a security research team for detection and response across cloud environments. This is an opportunity to lead an exceptional group of researchers working on a startup-level product within the largest security company, helping revolutionize how organizations protect their Kubernetes and hybrid cloud environments.
Your Impact
Lead, mentor, and grow a team of talented security researchers focused on defending organizations as they transition from on-premises data centers to modern cloud and Kubernetes infrastructure.
Drive the strategy and execution of research initiatives to uncover novel techniques for detecting and responding to sophisticated attacks targeting hybrid and cloud-native environments.
Define and prioritize detection use cases, relevant datasets, and innovative analytic approaches combining runtime visibility and posture management across diverse platforms.
Stay up to date with the latest attacker methodologies, APT campaigns, and TTPs to ensure our detection capabilities stay ahead of evolving threats in both legacy and cloud contexts.
Oversee simulation of real-world attacks and deep behavioral analysis to inform and validate detection content.
Foster collaboration across engineering, product management, and go-to-market teams to deliver impactful security solutions. Represent the team and share insights with the security community through blogs, conference talks, and publications.
