detections and constantly challenge the status quo. With additional experience and exposure to advanced detection development patterns
and projects, they are capable of becoming a Principal within 2 years.
Basic Qualifications
7 or more years of professional experience as a Detection Developer
Experience consists of projects contributing in either Python or YAML
SaaS, IaaS, and Identity Specific Telemetry (AWS Cloudtrail, Azure Activity Logs, IDP’s, API Activity Logs, Mail)
Cloud and Identity Forensic Investigation Experience
SIEM Detections
CDR detections/signatures
Sigma Rules
Development of anomaly and behavioral based detections
Tuning and optimization of detections for all the above
Professional certifications in Security and/or Cloud are required (i.e. CISSP, CCSP, GIAC Cloud Threat Detection (GCTD), GIAC Public
Cloud Security (GPCS), GIAC Cloud Forensics Responder (GCFR), AWS Security Specialty, Microsoft Azure Security Certifciations.
Experience consists of leading a team of 3 or more Detection Developers while contributing code independently
Experience leading Agile development teams, preferably with formal Agile training
Preferably located in Canada or the U.S.
