What you'll do As a Cyber Threat Hunter with a focus on Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI), you will play a critical, proactive role in safeguarding our organization from advanced threats that evade traditional security defenses. You will bridge the gap between reactive incident response and preventative security engineering, using intelligence-driven methodologies to hunt down adversaries in our environment before they can cause harm. Your mission is to: • Proactively Hunt: Execute hypothesis-driven threat hunts across the network, endpoints, and cloud environments to uncover hidden, anomalous, or malicious activity that could bypass controls, • Leverage Intelligence: Integrate Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) from tactical, operational, and strategic sources to inform hunting hypotheses, prioritize investigations, and enrich security tooling, • Support Incident Response: Collaborate on threat intelligence driven incidents by providing hunting and CTI enrichment support, • Improve Posture: Prioritize vulnerabilities and security gaps based on threat actor exploitation trends identified via CTI and hunting campaigns, directly feeding into the vulnerability management and security engineering programs, • Advance Detection: Coordinate with detection engineers to develop new detections, composite rules, and dashboards based on discovered threat Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) to enhance the security team's overall capability, • TIP and SIEM Enrichment: Lead the lifecycle of threat intelligence within the Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP), ensuring timely maintenance, accurate expiration policies, reduction in false positive rates, and continuous enrichment of Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) and TTPs to improve contextualization and prioritization of alerts in the Security and Information Event Management (SIEM) A typical day involves a blend of deep investigation, collaboration, and continuous learning: • Review the latest threat intelligence reports, internal alerts, and ongoing investigations.

This reduces false positive alerts and improves detection based on gathered information, • 5+ years' experience threat hunting, • 2+ years experience with the Incident Response lifecycle (Preparation, Detection & Analysis, Containment, Eradication & Recovery, Post-Incident Activity) and the ability to lead the technical aspects of an investigation, • Demonstrable ability to source, analyze, and apply CTI to hunting for adversary TTPs, • Provide expert-level knowledge and practical experience with SIEM, TIP, and Endpoint and Network Detection & Response E/NDR) tools for data querying and analysis, • Experience prioritizing vulnerabilities, Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs), in a vulnerability management program based on CTI feeds and evidence of active exploitation (e.g., applying the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog), • Solid understanding of operating system internals (Windows, macOS, Linux), cloud infrastructure, common network protocols, or the ability to analyze endpoint and network artifacts (e.g., packet captures, memory dumps, system logs), • US Citizenship required, • Active DoD Secret Clearance or have held one in the last two (2) years, • Demonstrated Incident Response, or Security Operations Center (SOC) role (Tier 3/Advanced Analyst) experience, • Hands-on experience with EDR, NDR, TIP, and Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) tools, • Familiarity with the security logging, monitoring, and threat landscape of major cloud environments $165,000.00 - $260,500.00 / annually.
