Job Description About the Role An employer is seeking a Security Engineer III to advance our monitoring, detection, and incident response capabilities across the platform. Our platform provides a global, scalable, and secure way to deploy applications. In this role, you will design and enhance monitoring and audit solutions, improve detection quality, and strengthen our ability to respond to and investigate security incidents in a large-scale distributed environment. Key Responsibilities

•  Partner with Software Architects, Platform Engineering, Security Engineering, SRE/Operations teams, Compliance stakeholders, and business leaders to define system boundaries, critical assets, security controls, and monitoring requirements across cloud-native and hybrid environments.
•  Design, implement, and continuously enhance observability solutions by leveraging AI-powered monitoring, telemetry analytics, logging, tracing, and metrics collection to improve platform reliability, security visibility, incident detection, response effectiveness, availability, and forensic readiness.
•  Integrate and optimize logging, monitoring, and security telemetry pipelines with enterprise platforms such as SIEM, SOAR, EDR/XDR, APM, cloud-native security tools, and AI-assisted analytics solutions, ensuring comprehensive data quality, coverage, and usability.
•  Utilize AI-driven operational insights and anomaly detection capabilities to proactively identify security threats, performance degradation, system failures, and emerging operational risks.
•  Develop, tune, and automate alerts, correlation rules, and detection logic to reduce alert fatigue, minimize false positives, and maintain strong coverage for security, compliance, and operational events.
•  Collaborate with Security Operations Center (SOC), Incident Response, Threat Detection, Vulnerability Management, and Engineering teams to establish and maintain effective escalation paths, communication workflows, and automated response mechanisms.
•  Participate in and support the execution of the Incident Response Plan by providing actionable telemetry, threat intelligence, root-cause analysis, forensic evidence, and AI-assisted investigation insights throughout incident lifecycle activities and post-incident reviews.
•  Drive DevSecOps practices across the software development lifecycle by integrating security controls, automated compliance checks, vulnerability scanning, policy enforcement, secret management, and threat detection into CI/CD pipelines.
•  Partner with development and infrastructure teams to identify, prioritize, remediate, and validate vulnerabilities, ensuring timely patch management, security hardening, and compliance with organizational security standards.
•  Implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC), Policy as Code, and Security as Code principles to automate deployment, governance, security controls, and compliance validation across cloud environments.
•  Leverage Generative AI and AI-assisted security tooling to improve operational efficiency, accelerate investigations, automate repetitive tasks, enhance threat detection, and support security engineering workflows.
•  Participate in on-call rotations and weekend support activities, as required, to ensure timely response to operational incidents, security events, and critical platform issues.
