Company mission
To bring identity security everywhere, and allow organizations to operate without fear or disruptions.
Role
Who you are
- 8+ years of hands-on experience in incident response, breach response, threat hunting, or detection engineering
- Deep expertise in identity security — Active Directory, Entra ID, service accounts, non-human identities, authentication protocols
- Proven ability to operate at both technical depth and executive altitude — credible in the war room and the boardroom
- Track record of translating IR findings into actionable remediation and long-term posture improvements
- Experience enabling and working alongside IR partner firms in a senior capacity
- Strong communication skills — able to produce clear executive readouts, present at industry events, and build trust quickly with both
What the job involves
- We׳re looking for a senior identity security practitioner to anchor its IRIS (Identity Response & Identity Security) function across EMEA. In this role you will lead engagements hands-on, build out regional methodology and tooling. If you want to own a function, not inherit one, this is the role
- Lead identity-centric IR and threat hunting engagements across EMEA — from triage and scoping through investigation, containment and executive readout
- Build and maintain playbooks, tooling, and reporting standards that translate findings into hardening actions and lasting posture improvements
- Own customer outcomes end-to-end — engagements close with concrete risk reduction, not just a report
- Enable and support IR partners across the region — provide QA, enablement, and escalation support when it counts
- Represent Silverfort externally at conferences, roundtables, webinars, and customer events
- Shape the evolution of identity threat hunting as the attack surface expands into automation and agentic environments
- Influence product direction as the SecOps and IR practitioner voice — keeping the platform grounded in operational reality

Our take
Cyber attacks are shifting their focus to identity, exploiting the complex web of interactions between humans, machines, clouds, and applications. Traditional security tools struggle to keep pace, leaving gaps in authentication and vulnerable entry points for hackers.
Silverfort takes a holistic approach to identity security. Instead of replacing existing platforms, it sits above them, providing a "second opinion" on every authentication. The company's agentless technology monitors all interactions across the organisation, including legacy apps and endpoints, detecting and preventing threats in real-time. This all-encompassing view allows Silverfort to identify suspicious activity and intervene before breaches occur.
With impressive revenue growth and customer acquisitions, Silverfort closed a successful funding round in 2024, valuing the company at around $1B. As cloud and hybrid environments become the norm, Silverfort's approach positions the company as a frontrunner in securing the complex identities shaping the future of work.
