What is The Role

As a Principal Security Research Engineer on the Threat Research and Detection Engineering (TRaDE) team, you'll play a key role in shaping the detection capabilities of Elastic Security.

  • Create and present findings to enhance team knowledge and community awareness

What You Bring

  • We're looking for candidates with experience in Generative AI Security and intimately understand MITRE ATLAS / ATT&CK threat techniques and behaviors.
  • Experience with Elastic Security Solution and proficiency in writing or validating detections using a query language (e.g. EQL, KQL, SQL)
  • Demonstrated experience leveraging AI-assisted development tools to accelerate feature development, debug complex systems, optimize existing codebases, generating telemetry, conduct threat research, and assist detection engineering workflows.
  • Proven ability to seamlessly transition between different projects, codebases, or scrum teams based on dynamic business priorities.
  • You have a proven track record of using AI to accelerate development, debug complex systems, and optimize code, while still owning the final outcomes.
  • Proficiency in modern AI/ML frameworks and hands-on experience integrating LLM APIs into production applications
  • You work autonomously and can drive decisions and results in a distributed team by leveraging asynchronous, direct, and transparent communication.
  • Previous successes in presenting findings and insights to technical audiences
