Senior Tactical Response Analyst working remotely in the US to analyze serious security incidents and support cybersecurity operations.
Обязанности
- Tactical Response owns the difficult, ambiguous part of serious security incidents: understanding what happened, how the attacker gained access, what they did, what remains at risk, and what the partner should do next.
- As a Senior Tactical Response Analyst, you will take ownership of complex, active-adversary and high-friction intrusion cases. You will lead deep investigations, build defensible timelines and root-cause narratives, guide partners through remediation and recovery, and communicate clearly during high-stakes incidents.
- You will also turn investigation findings into technical notes for account-facing teams, actionable feedback for Product and Detection Engineering, new detections, repeatable playbooks, and automation opportunities, as well as validate case findings to be put in use for scalable threat intelligence.
- Lead or support cases involving confirmed active adversaries, hands-on-keyboard activity, serious intrusions, or complex coordination requirements.
- Investigate across endpoint, identity, cloud, SIEM, VPN, firewall, Windows, Linux, macOS, and other available telemetry.
- Build clear, evidence-based timelines and narratives that explain what happened and what must happen next.
- Provide practical remediation, eviction, recovery, and recurrence-prevention guidance.
- Explain complex findings clearly to technical teams, executives, and other stakeholders.
- Participate in partner calls with calm, authoritative, and empathetic communication.
- Identify where an incident demonstrates the value of an existing capability or indicates a need for additional coverage.
- Facilitate warm technical handoffs and support post-incident or executive briefings.
- Provide the technical evidence and narrative; account-facing teams own the commercial relationship, pricing, and sales process. Research emerging attacker tradecraft and test hypotheses against telemetry and partner environments.
- Develop and improve scripts, automations, dashboards, playbooks, methodology modules, and data-normalization workflows.
- Contribute validated field intelligence and case-derived material to enablement, briefings, blogs, webinars, and case studies when appropriate.
- Mentor responders and represent Tactical Response in cross-functional discussions.
- Partners receive clear answers, actionable guidance, and confidence during serious incidents.
- Cases close with defensible root-cause, remediation, and recovery outcomes.
- Technical notes give account-facing teams credible context for retention, expansion, and competitive conversations.
- Investigation findings become Product feedback, detection improvements, workflow changes, playbooks, or automation.
- Your work improves the quality, consistency, and scalability of future Tactical Response engagements.
