Job description

SENIOR GOOGLE SECURITY GENERAL RESPONSIBILITIES

The role is responsible for the engineering, integration, optimization, and administration of Google Security Operations (Google SecOps / Chronicle) and related Security Operations platforms. The position focuses on building and improving SIEM, SOAR, log management, detection engineering, and security automation capabilities, rather than performing day-to-day SOC analyst activities.

The role will work closely with SOC teams, security engineers, customers, and technical stakeholders to design and implement scalable security monitoring, detection, automation, and response capabilities using Google Security Operations.

DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

1. Google Security Operations / SIEM Engineering

• Design, configure, administer, and optimize Google Security Operations (Google SecOps / Chronicle).
• Configure SIEM capabilities including log ingestion, search, analytics, correlation, detection, and monitoring.
• Optimize Google SecOps platform performance, reliability, data quality, and detection capabilities.
• Troubleshoot Google SecOps platform, configuration, integration, and data ingestion issues.
• Implement security monitoring solutions based on customer and operational requirements.

2. Log Source Integration and Data Onboarding

• Onboard and integrate security, infrastructure, cloud, network, endpoint, application, and other technology log sources into Google Security Operations.
• Configure and troubleshoot log collection, ingestion, parsing, normalization, and enrichment.
• Work with Google SecOps data ingestion and normalization capabilities, including UDM-based security data.
• Validate log source connectivity, data quality, event coverage, and field mapping.
• Troubleshoot ingestion and parsing issues and implement corrective actions.

3. Detection Engineering

• Develop, configure, test, and fine-tune security detections and monitoring use cases within Google Security Operations.
• Develop and maintain detection rules, correlation logic, and security monitoring content.
• Translate customer security requirements, threat scenarios, and operational requirements into actionable detection use cases.
• Tune detections to improve accuracy, reduce false positives, and increase security visibility.
• Take onboarded log sources through to customer-specific detection and monitoring capabilities.
• Support threat-based detection engineering and continuous improvement of security use cases.

4. SOAR and Security Automation

• Configure, develop, and optimize SOAR playbooks, workflows, integrations, and automated response processes.
• Automate security investigation, enrichment, notification, and response activities.
• Integrate Google Security Operations with security tools, third-party platforms, APIs, and external services.
• Develop automation workflows that improve SOC efficiency and reduce manual operational activities.
• Troubleshoot and enhance existing SOAR integrations and playbooks.

5. Platform Integration and API Engineering

• Integrate Google Security Operations with enterprise security and technology platforms.
• Work with APIs, Syslog, agents, collectors, connectors, and other integration mechanisms.
• Support integrations with endpoint, network, identity, cloud, vulnerability management, threat intelligence, and other security technologies.
• Develop or configure technical integrations required for SIEM/SOAR capabilities.
• Troubleshoot integration failures and data flow issues.

6. Platform Administration and Maintenance

• Perform Google SecOps configuration changes, upgrades, maintenance, and platform enhancements.
• Monitor platform health, data ingestion, detection performance, and overall system reliability.
• Support platform lifecycle management, including configuration updates and technical improvements.
• Conduct root-cause analysis for platform and integration issues.
• Implement corrective and preventive actions to improve platform stability and performance.

7. Customer and SOC Technical Support

• Work with customers and SOC teams to understand security monitoring, detection, automation, and response requirements.
• Provide technical guidance on Google SecOps, SIEM, SOAR, log onboarding, detection engineering, and integrations.
• Support technical workshops, requirements gathering, solution design, and implementation activities.
• Maintain technical documentation, architecture documentation, configuration records, and knowledge articles.
• Provide knowledge transfer and technical guidance to SOC analysts and security engineering teams.
