Dublin, Dublin City, Ireland Expel Full time

Imagine yourself as a SOC analyst and a new alert shoots to the top of the queue. You open the alert and all of the relevant facts are laid out for you. You know the who, the what, and the where of what happened and it's all right there in the alert. You notice the attacker IP immediately and wonder, "Where is that IP located?". Wonder no more because the IP has already been fully enriched with all publicly available information This looks bad; just as you're about to shift to the EDR console to see what kind of damage was done, you notice further down that's already been provided for you. You have full context of everything that happened before, during, and after this event, and it's confirming your suspicions. You raise the alarm and notify the customer that you're digging into a potential security incident, and it only took 20 seconds to make that decision.

Now imagine you are the one who created that alert. You understand security operations and have a keen understanding of what information is needed to make an informed decision about a potential attack. You know the sort of enrichment needed to provide the right context about the facts of the alert. You have studied the metrics from previous investigations and know where analysts get tripped up or slowed down on decisions during the moments that matter. You streamline the response process through automation and make sure the decisions can be made quickly. Now imagine that the SOC analyst never even needed to triage the alert because of your automations; it was automatically promoted to an incident for the SOC.

You also enjoy working together on a team to prioritize the problems that matter and work toward a solution. You have a high degree of empathy and understand the demands of working in a SOC environment. You understand that scaling operations doesn't always mean scaling with more people; the real strength comes when you can arm analysts with the tools they need to become superheroes.

Does this sound like you? At Expel, we're taking a new approach to managed security. We spend our time trying to discover ways to keep our customers safe and our security analysts happy. We're trying to meet our customers where they are—understanding a vast number of attacker tactics, security vendor capabilities, and customer requirements. We believe innovating while handling the combinatorial explosion represents a captivating problem. If you agree, we may have the job for you

What Expel can do for you
  • Place you into the middle of a fast-growing cybersecurity company with the most enthusiastic customers you've ever seen—a welcome surprise in the MSSP/MDR market.
  • Give you an opportunity to collaboratively drive a significant security capability of the business.
  • Enable you to learn from analysts, data scientists, engineers, and responders responsible for various components of Expel's service and technology.
  • Facilitate ways to harness event signal from cloud service providers.
  • Provide an entertaining small and highly transparent startup environment.

  • Provide access to popular EDR, network, and SIEM technologies.
What you can do for Expel
  • Architect, maintain, and iteratively improve Expel's ability to detect and investigate threats using integrated technologies with limited direction.
  • Continuously improve Expel's detection strategy and capability through creation of detections for Expel's proprietary rule engine.
  • Maintain documentation in support of Expel's detection and response content.
  • Improve SOC analyst efficiency by automating investigative workflows using an orchestration framework written in Python.
  • Collaborate with engineering on Expel's integrations and engineering standards associated with each class of integration.
  • Evaluate technology APIs to design detection and response solutions to drive value and efficiency in Expel's Workbench platform.
  • Contribute to and thrive in a culture of experimentation, agile, quality, and continuous improvement among the team.
  • Take a leading role in the team's research and monitoring of the latest threat landscape and subsequent detection and response automation development.
  • Communicate effectively with stakeholders on support requests surfaced to the D&R engineering team.
  • Mentor less experienced team members and SOC analysts.
  • Bridge the Engineering to effectively identify new platform features and tools to better enable the growth of our detection and response capabilities.
What you should bring with you
  • 3+ years of experience with detection and response tools, particularly EDR, NSM, and SIEM.
  • 3+ years of experience writing, deploying, and tuning custom detections based on research or investigative work against common data sets (Windows Event Logs, auditd, CloudTrail, and similar datasets).
  • Proficiency in Python, Go, or other object-oriented programming languages.
  • Strong understanding of Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems and command line tools.
  • Knowledge of networking basics, such as TCP/IP and OSI model.
  • Expert knowledge and observations of attack vectors, threat tactics, and attacker techniques.
  • Intermediate knowledge of cloud infrastructure platforms and their Identity and Access Management (IAM) models.
  • Cursory understanding of common Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications and available security signals.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or Information Security strongly preferred.
  • 5+ years of professional experience in information technology or security operations would be ideal but not required.
