Strong software engineering skills with detection-as-code and infrastructure-as-code fluency
A track record of setting technical direction as a tech lead, team lead, or anchor senior IC
Demonstrated application of AI/LLM tooling to security workflows — and sound judgment about its limits
Experience leading incident response end to end in production environments
What Will Set You Apart
Red team, penetration testing, or adversary emulation experience at any point in your career
Experience in ITAR, CMMC, or other regulated defense or government environments
Exposure to OT/ICS or manufacturing environment security
Production experience building agentic or LLM-based security automation
