RESPONSIBILITIES:
A client with Kforce is seeking a Detection Engineer (Mid-Level) to join their team. Preference is for someone to be located in Cincinnati, OH but the client is open and okay with remote.
* SIEM & EDR tools (CrowdStrike SIEM, Splunk)
* Detection as code and other framework experience, not being too stuck in archaic development practices
* General familiarity with different tools
* Network logs, endpoint logs
* Scripting is nice to have (write content in their endpoint tool), python and PowerShell knowledge
* Develop custom detection logic across SIEM, EDR, and other security tooling within a cutting-edge technology stack
* Leverage threat modeling, detection engineering frameworks, and other creative methods to produce high-fidelity, investigation-worthy alerting
* Work closely with cross-functional teams to create tailored, purpose-built security content
* Lead technical knowledge sharing sessions to empower other teammates and stay on the forefront of content development and beyond
* Possess a -detection-as-code- mindset to drive security content that is confidently deployed, continuously tested, and expertly tuned
* Become immersed in our technology stack and logging to deliver solutions that push the boundaries of our security capabilities; Use this familiarity to present our security teams with the most relevant data to make quick and accurate decisions
* Stay current with the latest detection engineering techniques, threat tactics, and industry knowledgebase
* Shape the future of our data science and advanced analytic efforts
REQUIREMENTS:
* Bachelor's degree in Computer Science/Information Systems or the equivalent combination of education, training, or work experience; GSEC, GCIH, CISSP or other security or network certifications desired
Typically requires two or more years of experience with:
* Cloud-native data platforms, event streaming and analytic engines; Knowledge of network design and data flow/pipelines
* Strong understanding of security data lakes, SIEM, EDR, and interacting with SOAR
* Expert proficiency with programming/scripting languages and query languages (Python, R, PowerShell, SQL/KQL/LQL). Adaptability to new languages and technologies
* Clean and thoughtful documentation to enable knowledge sharing and reference materials
* Agile project development methodologies and incident case management experience
* Familiarity with -detection-as-code- and implementing CI/CD in detection engineering
* Ability to identify untapped value, while also possessing a -consumer-first- mindset to build outstanding security content
* In-depth knowledge of security technologies (encryption, data protection, design, privilege access, etc.)
* Exploratory mindset, ownership, time management, presentation and organizational skills; Passion for securing the mission, continuous learning and a growth mindset
