• Technical skill Core
  In the posting: “You'll work closely with engineering teams to find and close real risk, tune our detections so every alert is worth investigating, and use AI to make triage …” · “Remediation with engineering: Work with engineering teams to agree on fixes and timelines, track each vulnerability through to closure within SLA, and escala…” · “Claude Code) to speed up alert triage, enrich investigations, write and test detection logic, and automate repetitive SecOps work.”
