## About the role

Be a barrel. Full autonomy. Own things end to end, take on scope without being asked, no permission required to operate outside your core role. Build something that actually matters. If you're going to spend your time, spend it on something that matters to the world. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would
- 8+ years in security operations, detection engineering, or incident response, with time spent at a high-growth tech company, cloud-native infrastructure provider, or top-tier MDR/threat intel firm
- You've built or scaled a detection engineering function, not just operated inside one: you can point to the program, the pipeline, and the coverage that exist because of you
- Deep hands-on experience writing detections against cloud telemetry (AWS, GCP, or Azure control plane and audit logs) and endpoint telemetry (EDR event streams, OS-level signals)
- Strong scripting and automation skills in Python or similar, enough to build and maintain detection-as-code pipelines yourself rather than spec them for someone else
- Incident response experience at a company operating at significant scale, where you led response under pressure and your postmortems changed how the company operates
