If you are an innovator at heart and passionate about redefining how organizations secure modern environments end-to-end, we're looking for you.
Were looking for a Security Research Manager to lead a team focused on two of the fastest-growing domains in cybersecurity: autonomous investigation and response (Autopilot), and macOS detection and response. This is a unique opportunity to lead an exceptional team of researchers within the largest security company in the world, helping to revolutionize threat detection, investigation and response through patent-grade capabilities.
Your Impact
Lead, mentor, and grow a team of talented security researchers
Drive the inception, strategy and execution of our autonomous investigation and response solution (Autopilot)
Drive the strategy and execution of research initiatives to uncover novel techniques to detect and respond to sophisticated attacks targeting macOS endpoints
Define and prioritize detection and investigation use cases, relevant datasets, and innovative approaches based on runtime visibility, statistic algorithms and threat intelligence
Stay up to date with the latest attacker methodologies, APT campaigns, and TTPs to ensure our detection capabilities stay ahead of evolving threats
Oversee simulation of real-world attacks and deep behavioral analysis to inform and validate detection content
Foster collaboration across research, 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.
