• Implement SIEM platform resiliency controls, including cluster monitoring, ingestion latency tracking, and workload distribution optimizations.
• Monitor, maintain, and troubleshoot the data ingestion pipeline, including Kafka clusters, Cribl pipelines, Splunk Forwarders, and Sentinel connectors.
• Develop dashboards for pipeline throughput, message lag, schema drift, and end‑to‑end data quality validation.
• Manage and enforce data SLIs/SLOs across freshness, completeness, correctness, and availability.
• Ensure proper CIM/OCSF/CEF normalization and enrichment for all security‑relevant data sources.
• Oversee the Anvilogic content management platform, including rule execution health, version control, and analytics dependency monitoring.
• Develop unified observability dashboards covering SIEM platform state, ingestion health, detection pipeline execution, and analytic reliability.
• Serve as the escalation point for SIEM data outages, ingestion failures, analytic misfires, and platform degradations.
• Collaborate with operational and engineering teams to design and enhance security detections, analytics, and proactive defenses.
• Write, optimize, and maintain SPL, KQL, and other query languages to support analytics, threat detection, and investigations.
• Support Model Risk Management (MRM) efforts to describe AI or ML models used by SIEM technologies.

• 6+ years of experience in Security Operations, SIEM Engineering, Detection Engineering, Incident Response, or related enterprise disciplines.
• Hands‑on experience with Splunk Enterprise/Cloud and Microsoft Sentinel in large‑scale environments.
• Experience with Kafka, Cribl, Databricks, Hadoop, Python, SQL, Pandas, Spark, or similar data platforms.
• Experience mapping log sources into structured models such as CIM, OCSF, and CEF.
• Ability to troubleshoot complex SIEM ingestion, data quality, and infrastructure performance issues.
• Experience with EDR, SIEM, SOAR, and other enterprise‑scale cybersecurity tools.
• Ability to manage competing priorities, drive consensus, and deliver results across distributed teams.

• Experience with offensive security tooling and integrating SIEM/SOAR/TIP platforms.
• Knowledge of data science processes and statistical methods for detection enhancement.
• Experience threat hunting or performing detection engineering in cloud environments such as Azure, AWS, or M365.
• Experience maintaining Splunk KV stores, apps, and performing regular upgrades.
• Experience building SRE‑style observability and reliability patterns (SLIs, SLOs, error budgets) for cybersecurity platforms.
• Awareness of AI‑enabled Security Operations technologies.
