Regional Technical Lead DFIR

Founded in 2003 and headquartered in Singapore, Group-IB is a leading creator of cybersecurity technologies to investigate, prevent, and fight digital crime. Combating cybercrime is in the company’s DNA, shaping its technological capabilities to defend businesses, citizens, and support law enforcement operations.

Group-IB’s Digital Crime Resistance Centers (DCRCs) are located in the Middle East, Europe, Central Asia, and Asia-Pacific to help critically analyze and promptly mitigate regional and country-specific threats. These mission-critical units help Group-IB strengthen its contribution to global cybercrime prevention and continually expand its threat-hunting capabilities.

The Technical Lead will act as the primary technical anchor and initial escalation point during complex cybersecurity incidents. Led by a Regional Head, this role is deeply rooted in 24/7 technical excellence and cross-domain coordination. You will guide the technical direction of the team, provide extensive quality assurance, and drive the skill-up and professional growth of team members.

This is a highly specialized, purely technical career path. It explicitly does not include team management, disciplinary leadership functions, or the responsibility to drive the overarching strategic vision of the DFIR teams. You are the ultimate technical authority, not the administrative manager.

The DFIR vision:
Our ultimate goal is to fight cybercrime by constantly learning and staying one step ahead of the attackers. We do not just solve isolated puzzles; we bring different security experts together to build a complete and strong defense. By handling a large volume of cases, we gain real, practical experience that makes us better every day. Instead of just handing our clients a confusing list of technical data or "homework," we focus on providing clear, actionable answers that explain exactly what happened and what it means for their business.

Furthermore, we are constantly researching and looking ahead to ensure we are fully prepared for the future of automated cyber threats
