  • Work closely with Cribl Detect to ingest high-fidelity detection signals and trigger automated investigations and responses
  • Explore agentic paradigms, multi-agent frameworks, and natural language SOC interfaces, rapidly validating concepts through functional prototypes
  • Write core abstractions, design agent communication protocols, review critical code, and establish strict benchmarks for model accuracy, latency, and system reliability
  • Build safe execution frameworks offering transparent reasoning trails, clear chains of custody, and human-on-the-loop controls
