About the role

We are looking for a Threat Hunter to join our Cyber Threat Intelligence function and run proactive, hypothesis-driven hunts across our environment. This is a dedicated hunting role at the front of a detection pipeline: you will turn intelligence and adversary tradecraft into concrete hunts and turn what you find into detection packages that our tooling team operationalizes and our SOC consumes as tuned, documented alerts. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • 5+ years in a security operations, detection engineering, CTI, or incident response role, with meaningful hands-on threat-hunting responsibility
  • Demonstrated experience running hypothesis-driven hunts, forming a hypothesis, testing it against telemetry, and driving it to a conclusion, not solely alert triage
  • Strong working knowledge of adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures, and practical fluency with the MITRE ATT&CK framework
  • Proficiency querying and pivoting across security telemetry at scale in a SIEM and/or EDR/XDR (e.g., KQL, SPL, or equivalent query languages)
  • Solid understanding of endpoint, identity, cloud, and network telemetry, and a sense of what normal and abnormal look like in each
  • Ability to turn a hunt finding into a detection recommendation, including logic, supporting context, and fidelity/signal-to-noise considerations
