About the role We're looking for a Senior Security Incident Responder to be our lead technical responder on the most complex, high-severity security events — such as supply chain attacks, identity attacks, SaaS intrusions, and cloud security events. You'll command cross-functional response efforts, lead investigations with a team from detection through post-mortem, and mentor other analysts.
