Please review the following job description

Seeking a highly skilled Senior Threat Detection Engineer to design, develop, and optimize enterprise-grade detection capabilities across our security platforms. This role demands deep expertise in detection engineering, data pipelines, and advanced analytics combined with proven experience working in highly regulated industries. A critical requirement for this position is hands‑on expertise with Anvilogic, including detection‑as‑code, multi‑platform orchestration, and coverage analytics.

The role requires practical experience with Splunk, Snowflake/Snowpipe for data ingestion and detection development, and forward‑looking familiarity with Cribl /Databahn for scalable telemetry routing and enrichment. The ideal candidate will bring both technical mastery and a strategic mindset, helping our organization stay ahead of evolving adversary tactics.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

Detection Engineering :
Design, develop, and maintain high‑fidelity detections across Splunk, Snowflake, and related platforms.

Content Development :
Author SPL‑based detections (Splunk) and SQL‑based queries (Snowflake, MySQL, Postgre

SQL, SQL Server).

Snowflake Engineering:

  • Design and optimize queries within Snowflake for detection logic and threat hunting.
  • Configure and maintain Snowpipe pipelines for real‑time and batch ingestion of security‑relevant data.
  • Partner with data engineering to ensure schema design and ingestion pipelines support scalable detection use cases.

Pipeline Engineering (Future State):

  • Design and maintain integrations with Cribl/Databahn (or similar platforms) for log routing, transformation, and observability pipeline efficiency, telemetry enrichment, normalization, and cost‑optimized data movement.

Platform Administration :
Provide administrative expertise for Splunk and Snowflake environments, ensuring resilience, scalability, and performance.

Threat Modeling & Framework Alignment :
Map detections to the MITRE ATT&CK framework to ensure comprehensive threat coverage.

Anvilogic‑Driven Detection Engineering:
  • Use detection‑as‑code workflows for structured creation, testing, and deployment of detections.
  • Leverage Anvilogic content packs and extend/customize them for organization‑specific threats.
  • Orchestrate multi‑platform detection deployment across Splunk, Snowflake, and other SIEM/data lake platforms.
  • Apply coverage analytics within Anvilogic to identify detection gaps and validate against MITRE ATT&CK.
  • Manage the full lifecycle of detections including creation, validation, deployment, tuning, and retirement within Anvilogic.
  • Collaborate with SOC and IR teams to streamline workflows and reduce false positives using Anvilogic‑driven integration.

Regulatory Alignment :
Engineer detection solutions with compliance in mind (e.g., PCI‑DSS, HIPAA, SOX, GLBA).

Collaboration :
Partner with SOC, IR, Threat Intel, Red/Purple, Continuous Security Validation, and Data Engineering teams to validate detections, minimize false positives, and strengthen visibility.
