Security Operations Responder

About the Role

The Tide Security Engineering team is made up of three core areas: Product Security, Identity, Threat Detection & Response. As a Security Operations Responder, you'll be on the front line of defending Tide. Your primary focus is actively investigating threats through our security data lake and SOAR platform.

Responsibilities

• Document investigations clearly and contribute to runbooks and investigation standards.
• Scale investigation through automation, building SOAR playbooks, security automations, and services.

• Strong understanding of modern attack and defense techniques applicable to Cloud, SaaS, and desktop environments.
