Role
Who you are
- Cloud Defender: Deep technical expertise in cloud security services across a multi-cloud environment â solid understanding of cloud-native security logging and identity management, as well as experience in responding to cloud infrastructure security alerts (compute, containers, serverless, networking)
- Detection Engineering: Extensive experience building and tuning high-fidelity alerts in modern SIEMs (e.g., Panther, Snowflake, or Splunk) and EDR platforms (e.g., SentinelOne, Crowdstrike)
- Automation First: Strong proficiency in Python or Go to build "security-as-code" tools, automate repetitive SOC tasks, and integrate disparate security APIs
- Unique Experience: DFIR across Android IoT devices, or OT systems and networks
- Collaboration: Forge partnerships across Cybersecurity, Engineering, and Product teams to help coordinate actions as part of responding to security eventsâfrom exercise driven scenarios to real-world events
- âOwn Itâ Mindset: You don't wait for a ticket to fix a gap; you identify the risk, propose the solution, and drive it to completion
- Feeling uneasy that you havenât ticked every box? Thatâs okay; weâve felt that way too. Studies have shown women and minorities are less likely to apply unless they meet all qualifications. We encourage you to break the status quo and apply to roles that would make you excited to come to work every day

- Leadership and Management:
- Advanced Incident Investigation: Lead deep-dive investigations into complex security incidents escalated from Tier 1, utilizing SIEM, EDR, and Cloud telemetry to determine scope and impact
- Containment & Remediation: Execute immediate containment strategies (e.g., host isolation, account resets, firewall blocks) and coordinate with IT and Engineering teams for full-system remediation across multiple operating systems (Windows, MacOS, Linux)
- Post-Incident Analysis: Author comprehensive After Action Reports (AARs) that identify root causes and provide actionable recommendations to senior Cybersecurity leadership to prevent recurrence
- Mentorship: A passion for raising the bar for the entire team by mentoring junior analysts and conducting security awareness sessions across the company
- The First 30 Days:
- Build a deep understanding of Flockâs technology stack (hardware and cloud), our threat landscape, and existing incident response playbooks
- Establish strong partnerships with the DevOps, Infrastructure, and Product Security teams
- The First 60 Days:
- Identify and implement at least two major automation improvements to our current alerting pipeline to reduce "alert fatigue."
- Conduct a gap analysis of our current logging and visibility across our enterprise, cloud, and product environments
- Begin participating in on-call rotation and assist with alert triage efforts
- Review current process for alert triage and suggest improvements
- 90 Days & Beyond:
- Own a major component of our security roadmap (e.g., implementing a new Zero Trust architecture or maturing our SOAR capabilities)
- Own the maturation of security playbooks ensuring proper documentation across all areas of incident response

- The Hiring Manager Interview: You will meet with your potential future boss to really dive into the role, the team, expectations, and what success means at Flock. This is your chance to really nerd out with someone in your field
- The Technical Assessment: Our technical assessments seek to test the hard skills required to do the job. Engineers may find themselves in coding interviews or architecture discussions, sales roles may present mock discovery calls, and leadership roles may craft 90 day plans. Your recruiter will inform you of which assessment you will be assigned and ensure you are fully prepared for your big day
- The Panel: Learn more about the team, responsibilities, and workflows. You should be prepared to speak about past projects, how you collaborate and communicate with others, and how you live our values. Depending on the team and role you are interviewing for, you may meet with several teammates as well as cross-functional partners
- The Executive Review: A chance to meet an executive in your function and view Flock from a different lens. Be prepared to ask well-thought-out questions about the company, culture, and more
Our take
Public vehicle surveillance provides valuable insights to emergency services for the prevention of crime, but bringing information together to create leads is difficult. There's no standardised system for inter-city vehicle surveillance, and this makes it difficult for communities and law enforcement services to work together.
Flock Safety provides surveillance equipment that aims to improve the abilities of law enforcement and homeowner associations to communicate data with each other. The company focuses on vehicle surveillance, innovating on existing technology by using machine learning to categorise vehicles by color, license plate, state, and other data points.
Whilst automated surveillance equipment is used daily within federal police forces, Flock Safety builds technology systems that provide a means for smaller law enforcement agencies to quantify and share surveillance data easily. It's caught on too, with a funding round of $275 million awarded in 2025 that will be used to expand its manufacturing capabilities. lock Safety, a U.S. startup developing surveillance technology, has raised $275 million in new funding led by Andreessen Horowitz, as it invests in a manufacturing facility and expands into drone products, the company told Reuters. funding behind it, This data can then be automatically processed to help develop leads, a time-consuming process that would usually have to be completed manually.
