• Shares in a weekly on-call rotation and acts as an escalation point for managed security services and Raymond James associates.

• Leverage programming and data science techniques to develop, operationalize, and optimize machine learning models and data-driven security use cases.

• Develop and implement advanced data correlation, enrichment, and processing strategies leveraging automation, data science, AI/ML, and LLM capabilities for threat hunting and incident response analysis.

• Apply AI engineering principles within security operations to design, deploy, and maintain intelligent detection and response capabilities.

• Design and execute automated and intelligent response actions to validate, contain, eradicate, and remediate security incidents.

• Prototype, evaluate, and deploy emerging AI-driven technologies to enhance detection accuracy, reduce false positives, and accelerate response times.

• Ensure Security Operations applications, automation pipelines, and incident ingestion processes remain healthy, resilient, and performant.

• Drive continuous improvement by identifying gaps, recommending enhancements, and implementing innovative SOAR and AI-driven solutions.

• Collaborate with incident response, threat intelligence, and threat hunting teams to strengthen detection and response capabilities.

Experience and Skills:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Management Information Systems, Cybersecurity, or a related field, and 5–8 years of relevant experience in Information Security, Cybersecurity Operations and Incident Response.

• Minimum of 4 years of hands-on incident response experience, including triage, investigation, containment, eradication, recovery, and post-incident analysis.

• Minimum of 2 years of programming or scripting experience using at least one modern language such as Python, JavaScript, PowerShell, or Rust, with a focus on automation, data enrichment, and security operations workflows.

• Experience designing, developing, and maintaining automation workflows that support incident response, alert triage, threat enrichment, case management, and analyst productivity.

• Experience with API development, integration, and orchestration across security tools, cloud platforms, ticketing systems, and enterprise data sources.

• Familiarity with agentic AI workflows, AI-assisted security operations, or the application of GenAI/LLMs to automate investigation, summarization, enrichment, decision support, and response actions.

• Experience with Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response platforms, case management tools, or similar technologies used to streamline incident response processes.

• Strong understanding of incident response frameworks, common attack techniques, security telemetry, and investigation workflows, including endpoint, network, identity, cloud, and email-based incidents.

• Experience working with SIEM, EDR, SOAR, threat intelligence, log management, and cloud security platforms.

• Ability to translate complex incident response processes into repeatable, scalable automation requirements, playbooks, and technical solutions.

• Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and problem-solving skills with the ability to work independently and lead efforts during high-priority security incidents.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to document technical findings, explain automation logic, and communicate incident details to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Ability to mentor analysts, promote automation adoption, and identify opportunities to improve incident response speed, consistency, and quality.

Licenses/Certifications:

• One or more of the following certifications preferred: CISSP, SANS GCIH (Incident Handler), SANS GCIA (Intrusion Analyst), SANS GCFE (Forensic Analyst), Offensive Security Certified Professional (OSCP), Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH)

Competencies and Behaviors:

• Analysis: Identifies, investigates, and interprets complex security issues, incidents, and operational challenges. Correlates data from multiple sources, including security tools, logs, threat intelligence, case records, and automation outputs, to draw sound conclusions and recommend effective response actions.

• Communication: Clearly communicates technical information, incident details, automation logic, and recommendations to technical and non-technical audiences. Produces clear documentation, status updates, executive summaries, and post-incident findings that support timely understanding and decision-making.

• Judgment and Decision Making: Applies sound judgment when evaluating incident severity, response options, automation outcomes, and operational risk. Makes or recommends timely decisions based on available facts, business impact, constraints, and probable consequences, while escalating appropriately when needed.

• Technical and Professional Knowledge: Maintains strong knowledge of incident response, security operations, automation, scripting, AI-enabled workflows, and relevant security technologies. Stays current with emerging threats, tools, techniques, and industry practices, and applies that knowledge to improve response capabilities.

• Building Effective Relationships: Builds trusted, collaborative relationships across Cybersecurity, Technology, business units, vendors, and leadership. Partners effectively with stakeholders to resolve incidents, improve workflows, implement automation, and support shared security objectives.

• Automation Mindset: Identifies opportunities to improve speed, consistency, and quality through automation, orchestration, and repeatable playbooks. Balances automation with appropriate validation, oversight, and risk controls.
