Job Description:

Role Overview

The Senior Manager Detection Engineering is a senior leader within Threat Defense & Exposure Operations (TDEO) accountable for advancing an intelligenceled exposureinformed detection capability across Fusion Operations. This role leads the endtoend detection lifecycle and partners deeply with Cyber Security Operations (CSOC) Cyber Security Incident Response (CSIRT) Protect Threat Intelligence Attack Surface Reduction (ASR) and engineering teams to deliver highfidelity detections that materially reduce adversary opportunity and business risk.

The role is responsible for maturing detection engineering as a productized governed capability including the development of a DetectionasCode platform lifecycle standards and analyticsdriven performance management aligned to TDEO outcomes.

Key Responsibilities

IntelligenceLed Detection Lifecycle Ownership

• Own the endtoend detection lifecycle across Fusion from threatinformed requirements and hypothesis generation through engineering deployment tuning validation and retirement of detections.
• Embed beforedetection thinking by ensuring detections are driven by adversary behaviors exposure context and threat modelsnot solely by reactive alerting needs.
• Establish lifecycle standards that ensure detections remain current effective and aligned to evolving threats exposures and business priorities.

Fusion Partnerships: CSOC CSIRT Threat Intelligence ASR

• Partner closely with CSOC and CSIRT to codevelop detections that are operationally actionable high signaltonoise and supported by clear triage and response expectations.
• Incorporate incident learnings CSOC analyst feedback and CSIRT postincident reviews into continuous detection improvement.
• Collaborate with Protect Threat Intelligence to translate intelligence requirements adversary insights and campaign analysis into concrete detection logic.
• Align with Attack Surface Reduction (ASR) to ensure detections reinforce exposure reduction priorities and validate control effectiveness.

DetectionasCode & Platform Leadership

• Lead the design and delivery of a DetectionasCode platform to enable scalable repeatable and governed detection development using modern engineering practices.
• Establish CI/CDstyle workflows for detection content including version control testing promotion rollback and auditability.
• Partner with automation orchestration and data engineering teams to integrate detections with enrichment services validation tooling and response workflows.

Threat Modeling & Detection Coverage

• Apply threat modeling to identify detection gaps prioritize engineering effort and align coverage to the exposures adversaries are most likely to exploit.
• Ensure detections are mapped to MITRE ATT&CK to support coverage analysis gap identification and executivelevel reporting.
• Drive consistency in how threat models ATT&CK techniques and intelligence requirements are operationalized across Fusion detections.

SIEM & Analytics Leadership

• Oversee detection development across enterprise SIEM platforms (e.g. Splunk Enterprise Security Microsoft Sentinel) ensuring consistency scalability and performance.
• Use analytics and metrics (e.g. true positive rate false positive rate detection coverage timetodetect) to drive prioritization tuning decisions and investment tradeoffs.
• Translate detection performance into riskbased insights that demonstrate how Fusion detections contribute to reduced exposure and faster containment.

People Strategy & Capability Maturity

• Lead coach and develop a team of detection engineers aligned to TDEOs intelligenceled operating model.
• Set the detection engineering roadmap in alignment with TDEO strategy Fusion priorities and enterprise risk outcomes.
• Contribute to broader TDEO initiatives including capability maturity assessments standards development and platform strategy.

Required Qualifications

• Prior people leadership experience in a detection engineering security analytics or security operations function.
• 8 years of experience in cybersecurity with deep experience in detection engineering SOC operations or security analytics.
• Proven experience developing detections for SIEM platforms such as Splunk Enterprise Security and/or Microsoft Sentinel.
• Strong understanding of the detection lifecycle and how detections enable effective CSOC and CSIRT operations.
• Experience translating threat intelligence and threat models into operational detections.
• Working knowledge of MITRE ATT&CK and its application to detection coverage and gap analysis.
• Background in analytics and datadriven decisionmaking.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience building or leading a DetectionasCode or contentascode platform.
• Foundational understanding of DevOps concepts including CI/CD pipelines version control and automated testing.
• Experience operating within a Fusionstyle crossdomain security model integrating intelligence detection response and exposure management.
