We are seeking a highly motivated Senior Security Engineer – Threat Detection & Incident Response at Chennai to join our IT team on a full-time basis.
Key Responsibilities :
- Lead end-to-end incident response for complex, multi-stage breaches — from initial triage through containment, eradication, and post-incident review
- Proactively hunt for threats and adversary TTPs across endpoint, network, and cloud telemetry before alerts fire
- Perform deep forensic analysis on suspicious events, distinguishing false positives from genuine compromise with minimal guidance
- Identify detection gaps and develop new detection logic, correlation rules, and hunting hypotheses
- Monitor and tune EDR, SIEM, firewall, and web gateway platforms to reduce noise and improve signal fidelity
- Mentor and uplift junior SOC analysts; contribute to SOC process maturity and playbook development
- Maintain rigorous incident documentation and contribute to lessons-learned and threat intel feedback loops
Preferred to Have :
- Red team, penetration testing, or ethical hacking experience (or certifications: OSCP, CRTO, PNPT)
- Experience with threat intelligence platforms and integrating intel into detection workflows
- Scripting ability (Python, PowerShell, KQL/SPL) to automate hunting or analysis tasks
- Relevant certifications: GCIH, GCFA, GCFE, GDAT, or equivalent
Requirements:
Required Qualifications & Experience:
- 5+ years in security operations, with a clear focus on threat hunting and incident response — not just alert triage
- Demonstrated experience leading breach investigations and managing the full IR lifecycle
- Deep hands-on expertise with CrowdStrike Falcon (EDR, Spotlight, Fusion) and SIEM query/detection authoring
- Solid understanding of attacker TTPs mapped to MITRE ATT&CK — you should be able to describe how you've hunted for specific techniques
- Experience with network security controls (Fortinet FortiGate) and web gateway technologies (Skyhigh/McAfee SWG)
- Ability to work independently in ambiguous, high-pressure situations and make sound decisions without escalating everything
