THE ROLE
You will be the first line of defense in protecting Pure Storage's data and systems, driving immediate and effective resolution of all security incidents. This is a pivotal role where your rapid, analytical response directly secures our global operations and maintains customer trust. You will manage the end-to-end incident lifecycle, from initial triage to post-incident analysis, ensuring threats are contained and eradicated. Success requires close collaboration with IT, Engineering, and Security teams to continuously fortify our defenses. You will turn real-time threat data into actionable security improvements for the entire organization.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Drive incident resolution by performing real-time monitoring, triage, and comprehensive investigation of security events using our SIEM, EDR, and network visibility tools to contain and eradicate threats before business impact occurs.

• Advance our defensive posture by maintaining, optimizing, and developing new detection content and automation scripts (e.g., Python/Bash) within our core security technologies to improve response efficiency and minimize false positives.

• Ensure forensic integrity throughout the incident lifecycle, applying sound investigative practices to gather and preserve evidence, supporting post-incident analysis and lessons learned that drive organizational security process improvements.

• Communicate decisive action and insights to both technical and non-technical stakeholders across IT and Product teams, providing clear reports and metrics that inform risk tolerance and strategic security investments.

WHAT YOU BRING

• Minimum of 3+ years of direct experience executing end-to-end incident response and security operations center (SOC) functions, including real-time triage and threat containment.

• Expert command of security technologies, specifically demonstrated proficiency in utilizing Security Incident and Event Management (SIEM) platforms and Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) tools for effective threat analysis and hunting.

• Deep technical knowledge of network protocols, common cybersecurity attack methodologies, digital forensic processes, and cloud security principles (AWS, Azure, or GCP) to facilitate rapid, thorough investigations.

• Practical application of scripting languages (e.g., Python, Bash) to automate repetitive security tasks, develop custom detection logic, and enhance the overall efficiency of response workflows.

• Proven track record in translating complex security events into clear, actionable next steps for diverse technical teams and senior leadership.
