Join an exciting team reshaping the data storage industry.
About the RolePartner with the security operations lead and broader security team to develop and mature security use cases across the company’s environment and operations. Build and refine detections, policies, and response logic that enable the team to identify real attacks, misuse, intrusions, and data loss events with speed and confidence.
This is an active role; success is measured by signal quality, attack reduction, containment speed, and continuous improvement.
Responsibilities- Design, implement, and maintain high-fidelity detections, correlation rules, alerts, dashboards, and use cases in Splunk and related security platforms.
- Build detections across multiple data domains, including identity, endpoint, network, cloud infrastructure, SaaS applications, DLP, vulnerability, and asset posture.
- Correlate signals from diverse tooling and data sources to identify attacker behavior, misuse, anomalous activity, and material security risk.
- Partner with business units, IT, engineering, and internal security stakeholders to map business processes and workloads to security use cases and required telemetry.
- Support and participate in incident triage, investigation, containment, and post-incident improvement activities.
- Develop enrichment and automation workflows using Python, APIs, and security tooling to improve analyst efficiency and response consistency.
- Improve detection quality by tuning noisy alerts, reducing false positives, and increasing true positive rates.
- Collaborate on logging strategy, event onboarding, normalization, parsing, correlation, retention, reporting, and platform customization.
- Apply threat intelligence, attacker tradecraft, and frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK, CVE/CVSS, and risk context to drive meaningful detections.
- Create playbooks, runbooks, detection documentation, and operational guidance for responders and analysts.
- Use lessons learned from incidents, hunts, and threat research to continuously improve content, coverage, and response workflows.
- Help mature a security operations model that brings together detection, alerting, investigation, and response rather than treating them as isolated functions.
- Work primarily from the Lehi, UT office in compliance with Everpure policies, unless on PTO, work travel, or other approved leave.
- 6+ years of experience in cybersecurity, or a related technical field.
- 3+ years of hands‑on experience in incident response, detection engineering, security operations, or SIEM engineering.
- Strong hands‑on experience with a SIEM platform; direct experience with Splunk is strongly preferred.
- Solid understanding of the incident response lifecycle, including triage, scoping, containment, eradication, recovery, and post‑incident learning.
- Strong understanding of foundational networking, systems, cloud, and security principles.
- Ability to write scripts and automate tasks using Python or a similar language.
- Ability to work with APIs, integrate data sources, and automate enrichment or response actions.
- Strong analytical thinking and the ability to translate ambiguous threats or operational gaps into concrete detection logic.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across technical and non‑technical teams.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Security, Engineering, or a related technical field.
