Senior Security Engineer - Level 3

Candidates will be required to be on-site 5 days/week at Cincinnati, office. This is a senior-level individual contributor role with no direct reports.

Candidates should have directly relevant Security Operations and investigation experience. Lack of relevant hands-on experience will be a disqualifier. The Senior Security Engineer will support day-to-day Security Operations, with a focus on investigating security events and responding to complex security incidents. This person will lead containment, eradication, and recovery efforts across endpoint, cloud, and identity-related incidents and serve as an escalation point for more complex security events.

This is a senior-level individual contributor role requiring strong Security Operations experience, critical thinking, attention to detail, and the ability to communicate effectively in high-pressure situations.
