- Build and tune detection logic, correlation searches, and dashboards that hold up as individual tools in the stack change, are replaced, or are retired
- Lead the technical transition work when a security tool is deprecated, replaced, or reconfigured, ensuring no loss of detection or reporting coverage
- Integrate tools such as CrowdStrike, Splunk, Cribl, CyberArk, Suricata, Tenable, Tanium, Thales, CASB, Trellix, Axonius, and others to close cross-platform visibility gaps
- Develop automation and correlation workflows using APIs across the security tool stack to reduce manual reporting and analysis work
- Support threat hunting and incident response efforts that require correlating evidence across more than one tool or data source
- Support endpoint and platform security compliance with NIST, FISMA, and agency-specific requirements
- Maintain current, accurate documentation of tool configurations, data flows, and integration architecture across the stack
- Serve as the team's point of contact for cross-tool security engineering issues
Requirements:
- Ability to attain DHS EOD

- Demonstrated, hands-on experience across more than one security tool category (endpoint/EDR, SIEM, vulnerability management, network detection, or similar)
- Hands-on experience with an EDR/endpoint platform (e.g., CrowdStrike Falcon) , administration, detection engineering, or response
- Hands-on experience with Splunk (or an equivalent SIEM) , search, correlation searches, and dashboard/reporting development
- Demonstrated experience correlating and integrating data across disparate security platforms to close a visibility, detection, or reporting gap
- Scripting/automation proficiency (Python, PowerShell, or similar) for cross-tool data pipelines and API integrations
- Experience owning a tool deprecation or migration without losing detection or reporting coverage
- Effective communicator at all levels, both written and verbal
- Professional, customer-oriented, and even-keeled under pressure
