About the Role:
Today, when the company investigates an alert, we largely rely on the agents themselves to tell us whether the investigation was good. We need a human with real SOC experience to own that judgement.
You will be the person who looks at an agent-generated investigation and says whether it holds up: is the conclusion valid, is the evidence sufficient, is it comprehensive enough that an L1 or L2 analyst could actually act on it, or does it need more. You will then hold that same conversation with customers, with the credibility of someone who has run these investigations themselves and seen what their own team produced.
This is a hands-on technical role, not a people management role. We are looking for the senior engineer or SOC lead who stayed close to the incidents, not someone who moved away from them.
