Remote · Senior · Full-time

This senior incident response role centres on defending a large-scale cloud platform against active and evolving threats across a 24/7 follow-the-sun operational model. Day to day, the engineer owns the full incident lifecycle — from initial detection and triage through containment, eradication, and recovery — leading high-impact investigations and driving improvements to detection and response capabilities. A strong emphasis is placed on automation and intelligent workflows to scale security operations effectively. The position integrates AI tooling into daily practice as a core productivity expectation. It suits an experienced security engineer with a solid background in incident response, threat detection, and defensive security operations within complex cloud environments. Comfort with ambiguity, end-to-end ownership, and the ability to operate effectively within a globally distributed, remote-first team are essential qualities for success in this position.
