Job Description

Define and drive the technical strategy and architecture for Red Team visibility, telemetry, detection, deconfliction, and operational security. Use live Red Team operations, security incidents, threat intelligence, and adversary activity to identify systemic visibility and control gaps and translate them into prioritized engineering investments. Architect and build scalable services and data pipelines that collect, normalize, enrich, and correlate Red Team telemetry to make the right signals available to defenders. Drive the development of monitoring, hunting, detection, and alerting capabilities that help contextualize Red Team activity, identify unexpected or unauthorized behavior, and distinguish authorized operations from genuine adversary activity. Build durable deconfliction capabilities that combine operational context, asset and identity information, infrastructure signals, and behavioral telemetry while protecting sensitive Red Team information. Own and evolve the authoritative inventory of Red Team operational assets, ensuring infrastructure, tooling, identities, and related metadata are accurate, automated, auditable, and usable by monitoring and deconfliction systems. Raise the engineering bar across Red Team systems through strong patterns for testing, reliability, observability, secure development, deployment, and infrastructure lifecycle management.
