We are looking for a curious, hands-on security professional to join our Detection & Response team as an Incident Response Developer. You'll report to the Manager of Detection & Response and work closely with senior responders to investigate security incidents, improve our response processes, and build automation that helps us scale.

- Turn recurring incident types into repeatable workflows, from design to tooling.

- Report incident trends and metrics that inform team priorities.

- Work with Security Engineers to monitor, refine, and expand our SIEM and SOAR platforms.

- Collaborate with HR, Fraud, and Privacy teams on investigations into potentially fraudulent and sensitive activity.

- Participate in on-call rotation for responding to security incidents.

- Develop new detection rules with the detection engineering team.

Requirements:

- 3+ years of experience in cybersecurity.

- 1-2+ years of hands-on incident response experience.

- Ability to coordinate responders and stakeholders during an incident.

- Experience using a SIEM to turn noise into signal.

- Proficiency with AI coding tools.

- Workflow mindset.

- Working knowledge of cloud infrastructure.

- Discretion and sound judgment when handling sensitive information.

- Clear communication with internal and external stakeholders.

- Good judgment under pressure.

- Strong desire to learn from the team.

Benefits:

- Top-tier health benefits and life insurance

- Long-term group savings with employer match

- 20 vacation days, 4 wellness days, and unlimited sick and mental health days per year
