Associate Director - Global Detection Engineering

The purpose of this role is to lead a global team that builds, maintains and continuously improves detection logic across a variety of MXDR technologies, according to a clear strategy that is regularly updated to meet market and client demands. The global team will be made up of regionally located colleagues (UK, NL, AU & PH), that all contribute to a global set of detection logic, custom detections for clients and structural improvement projects around these themes.

The head of global detection engineering will be responsible for ensuring a market leading detection coverage on the technologies we deploy as part of our MXDR services. They ensure that we detect high risk cyber attack techniques, that result in high fidelity detections at our clients, with low false positive ratios.

• Develop new detection logic to contribute to Detection Engineering content repository.
• Continuously improve existing detection logic.
• Write and maintain detection tests cases.
• Review findings of TI, CERT, and Red Team activities and evaluate from a detection engineering improvement perspective.
