## Description

As a Staff Security Engineer on Security Incident Response at 1Password, you'll serve as a senior technical leader and builder for the team, helping shape both how we respond to incidents today and how our response capabilities evolve over time.

This role is about advancing what the team is capable of, not just responding when something breaks. You'll design and build AI-assisted systems that extend the team's reach, lead the response to the most complex incidents, and own programs that make the organization more prepared over time, from tabletop exercises and gamedays to the continued advancement of threat hunting and insider risk capabilities.

You bring engineering depth, sound incident judgment, and the ability to plan and deliver complex work against a longer-term maturity roadmap.

**Responsibilities:**

- Serve as incident manager and technical escalation point for complex, high-severity events

- Design and build AI-assisted and automated systems that improve incident response

- Establish safety controls and approval gates for automated actions

- Own the team's readiness programs, including tabletop exercises and incident gamedays

- Advance threat hunting and insider risk capabilities

- Mentor and provide technical leadership to other engineers

**Requirements:**

- Significant experience leading complex security incidents

- Experience designing and building AI-assisted automation for security operations

- Strong software engineering skills and experience building production tooling

- Experience owning a security program or capability roadmap

- Strong understanding of cloud-native, SaaS, and identity-driven attack techniques

**What you can expect:**

- Competitive salary ($192,000 - $278,000 USD or $167,000 - $242,000 CAD)

- Comprehensive benefits package

- Opportunity to work on cutting-edge technology

- Collaborative and dynamic work environment

**Our culture:**

- Prioritizes collaboration, clear communication, and receptiveness to feedback

- Aligned with core values: keep it simple, lead with honesty, and put people first

**How we work with AI:**

- Committed to leveraging AI to achieve our mission

- Encourage team members to take an active approach to learning AI best practices
