Operate agentic pipelines that triage large rule libraries against live telemetry at scale

Apply AI/ML techniques where appropriate for anomaly detection, behavioral analytics, or pattern identification in security datasets

Stay current on frontier AI threats (agentic attacks, LLM-assisted exploitation, AI-generated phishing) and translate them into detection opportunities

Collaboration & Operations:

Work closely with SOC analysts to understand alert quality feedback and drive fidelity improvements

Collaborate with data engineers on telemetry availability, data quality, and log source onboarding
