Senior Detection engineer_ Immediate joiner

Job Responsibilities

1. Detection Engineering (Primary Focus)

• Design, develop, and maintain high-fidelity detection rules and analytics across CrowdStrike Falcon (NGSIEM/EDR) and integrated SIEM platforms.

• Translate threat intelligence and adversary behaviors (MITRE ATT&CK) into scalable detection use cases.

• Continuously tune and optimize detections to improve alert fidelity and signal-to-noise ratio.

• Develop and maintain detection-as-code practices, including version control, testing, and documentation.

• Perform coverage gap analysis and proactively build new detections to address emerging threats.

• Partner with threat hunting teams to convert hypotheses into production-grade detections.

• Validate detection coverage through purple teaming, adversary simulation, and attack replay testing.

• Build detection strategies across:

• Endpoint (EDR)

• Identity

• Network and OT telemetry

• Cloud environments

2. SOAR Engineering & Automation (Secondary Focus)

• Design and implement automated playbooks using CrowdStrike Falcon Fusion and/or SOAR platforms.

• Automate end-to-end incident response workflows, including:

• Alert triage and enrichment

• Threat intelligence correlation

• Endpoint containment and remediation

• Case management and escalation

• Integrate SOAR with SIEM, EDR (CrowdStrike), NDR, vulnerability management, and threat intelligence platforms.

• Develop and maintain API-based integrations and connectors across security tools.

• Ensure automation workflows are resilient, auditable, and governed.

• Continuously identify opportunities to reduce manual SOC effort through orchestration.

3. Operational Mentality and SOC Optimization

• Champion a detection-first SOC model supported by automation.

• Improve SOC workflows through automated enrichment, triage, and response actions.

• Collaborate with SOC analysts, threat hunters, and engineers across APAC.

• Enhance operational metrics such as:

• Mean Time to Detect (MTTD)

• Mean Time to Respond (MTTR)

• Alert fidelity and reduction of false positives

4. OT & R&D Security Strategy

• Develop detection and response use cases tailored for OT/ICS, SCADA, and IIoT environments.

• Collaborate with engineering and R&D teams to integrate detect-and-respond capabilities into product lifecycles.

• Align detection strategies with:

• MITRE ATT&CK (Enterprise & ICS)

• NIST CSF / NIST 800-82

• IEC 62443

• Ensure safe implementation of automation within sensitive OT environments.
