• Proactive Threat Hunting – Conduct hypothesis‑driven threat hunts based on client telemetry, threat intelligence, and observed anomalies. Use available data sources and tools to identify suspicious or malicious activity that may bypass existing detections; document and present findings in a clear and actionable format for both internal teams and clients.
• Content QA and Maintenance – Participate in the review and validation of detection content prior to deployment. Assist in updating runbooks, SOPs, and detection playbooks to reflect changes in tools, threats, or client requirements; support efforts to maintain consistency, accuracy, and quality in all delivered content.
