Security Engineer, Saronic

• We're seeking a Security Engineer on our Security Operations team with strong detection engineering experience
• 3+ years of hands-on experience in detection engineering, security operations, security automation, or a closely related security engineering role
• Demonstrated experience designing, testing, and tuning detection rules and analytic queries across production security telemetry (endpoint, cloud, network, identity, or DLP)
• Hands-on experience with SIEM platforms and proficiency with query languages such as SPL, KQL, or equivalent
• Experience building and operating security data pipelines, including log ingestion, normalization, enrichment, and data quality management
• Understanding of data engineering concepts including ETL pipelines, data modeling, schema design, and indexing as applied to security telemetry
• Hands-on coding experience in Python, PowerShell, Go, or Rust for security automation, detection tooling, or pipeline development, and familiarity with Terraform for managing detection and logging infrastructure as code
• Understanding of MITRE ATT&CK framework and its application to detection coverage and gap analysis
• Ability to obtain and maintain a security clearance

Desirable

• You'll design and develop high-fidelity detection content, build and operate the data pipelines that power our security operations, develop automation playbooks that accelerate response, and work across a uniquely diverse telemetry landscape spanning cloud infrastructure, embedded vessel platforms, corporate systems, and operational technology
• This role is heavily weighted toward detection engineering
• You should think in terms of adversary behavior and telemetry coverage, not just alert triage
• You'll own detections end-to-end: from identifying gaps in coverage, through designing and testing detection logic, to tuning and validating in production
• Design, build, test, and tune high-fidelity detection rules and analytic queries across endpoint, cloud, network, identity, and DLP telemetry sources
• Develop and maintain detection content using detection-as-code practices including version-controlled logic, automated testing, and CI/CD deployment
• Map detection coverage to MITRE ATT&CK, identify gaps, and prioritize new detection development based on threat intelligence and business risk
• Engineer correlation rules, behavioral analytics, and anomaly-based detections that minimize false positives while surfacing real adversary tradecraft
• Own the detection lifecycle from initial development through production tuning, performance monitoring, and retirement
• Build and operate pipelines to ingest, normalize, enrich, and manage security telemetry at scale across diverse data sources, using Terraform and infrastructure-as-code practices to deploy and maintain logging and detection infrastructure
• Design and maintain log collection, parsing, and enrichment configurations that ensure the right telemetry is available at the right fidelity for detection and investigation
• Evaluate and onboard new telemetry sources as Saronic's infrastructure and threat landscape evolve
• Monitor pipeline health, data quality, and ingestion reliability to ensure detections operate on complete and accurate data
• Develop and manage automated response playbooks in SOAR platforms to accelerate containment and reduce analyst toil
• Build automation that enriches alerts with contextual data, reducing investigation time and improving analyst decision-making
• Support incident response efforts and translate lessons learned into improved detections and playbooks
• Partner with SOC analysts, Cloud Security, Product Security, and IT teams to close visibility and detection gaps across environments
• Collaborate with threat intelligence to ensure detection engineering is informed by current adversary TTPs relevant to defense, maritime, and autonomous systems
