Job Description

**Senior Security Engineer - Modern SOC (Tier 3)**

**Remote (U.S.)**

A growing MSP/MSSP platform is hiring multiple **Senior Security Engineers** to serve as Tier 3 technical experts supporting complex enterprise customer environments while helping evolve the next generation of its Modern SOC.

These are highly technical, hands-on engineering roles focused on solving difficult security challenges across multiple customer environments. You'll work across security architecture, advanced engineering, detection engineering, incident response, automation, and modern security operations.

Success in this role requires the ability to quickly learn new technologies, support diverse enterprise environments, and solve complex security problems across a broad security stack.

We're looking for engineers who thrive on difficult technical challenges, enjoy building security solutions, and naturally become the person other engineers call when problems become complex.

If your favorite part of the job is getting into the technical trenches, this role was built for you.

**What You'll Do**

* Serve as the Tier 3 technical resource during complex customer incidents and escalations.
* Design, build, and enhance Modern SOC capabilities across enterprise customer environments.
* Participate in security architecture reviews and solution design discussions.
* Engineer, troubleshoot, and optimize security platforms across SIEM, SOAR, EDR/XDR, cloud security, identity, network security, and detection technologies.
* Develop automation and orchestration workflows that improve operational efficiency.
* Partner with Security Engineering leadership to enhance existing services and introduce new security capabilities.
* Mentor Tier 1 and Tier 2 SOC analysts while helping establish engineering best practices.
* Evaluate emerging technologies and help shape the future direction of the security platform.

**What Success Looks Like**

* You enjoy solving the hardest technical problems.
* Engineers naturally come to you for guidance and complex troubleshooting.
* You're comfortable joining major customer bridge calls and leading technical investigations.
* You enjoy designing and building security solutions---not simply maintaining them.
* You continuously learn new technologies and enjoy working across a broad security stack.
* You look for opportunities to automate repetitive work and improve operational efficiency.

**Ideal Background**

* Experience as a Senior Security Engineer, Security Architect, Detection Engineer, Incident Response Engineer, MDR Engineer, or similar hands-on security engineering role.
* Experience supporting complex enterprise environments within an MSP, MSSP, professional services, consulting, or enterprise security organization.
* Strong enterprise networking and cybersecurity foundation.
* Hands-on experience designing and implementing enterprise security solutions.
* Comfortable working directly with enterprise customers during complex technical issues.
* Passion for engineering, architecture, and solving difficult technical problems.
* Comfortable moving between technologies rather than specializing in only one security platform.

**Experience With Several Of The Following**

**SIEM**

* Microsoft Sentinel
* Splunk
* Elastic

**Endpoint Security**

* CrowdStrike
* Microsoft Defender
* SentinelOne

**Network \& Infrastructure Security**

* Palo Alto
* Cisco Security
* Identity \& Access Management
* Zero Trust
* SASE

**Security Engineering**

* Detection Engineering
* Threat Hunting
* SOAR \& Automation
* MITRE ATT\&CK
* Cloud Security
* Infrastructure Automation
* AI-assisted Security Operations

**What We're Looking For**

We're looking for engineers who never lost their passion for technology.

Our strongest engineers are naturally curious, broad technical problem-solvers who enjoy learning new technologies rather than becoming experts in only one platform.

You'll spend your time designing solutions, solving complex customer challenges, participating in architecture discussions, mentoring other engineers, and helping evolve a Modern SOC supporting enterprise customers across a wide variety of technologies.

If you're the engineer teammates call when they can't figure something out - and you enjoy building, troubleshooting, and continuously improving security environments - we'd love to talk.

**This Role May Not Be the Best Fit If**

* Your experience is primarily limited to a single security platform.
* You prefer monitoring alerts more than engineering solutions.
* You enjoy maintaining environments more than troubleshooting and building them.
* You're looking for a management role rather than a highly technical engineering position.
