You will work with compliance teams and other collaborators to make sure our incident processes meet all compliance and regulatory requirements while staying lean and adaptable.

You will coordinate scheduling for incident managers and responders to ensure adequate coverage and readiness.

Who You Are You have significant experience and a strong interest in effective security incident management, including leading response efforts, process development and automation.
You have a shown understanding of incident response frameworks (e.g. NIST, SANS) and standard processes.
You have a passion for automation, and the ability to effectively build tooling that combines automated response actions with human judgement
You have the skills to build automations and tools to aid response, and a sufficiently broad understanding of cloud and endpoint security to know where to focus
You can think like an attacker, and understand how to respond to new and novel attacks that cross organizational and cloud boundaries
You have strong experience working with incidents in cloud environments such as GCP, AWS, or Azure
You possess excellent organizational and communication skills, and are adept at collaborating with diverse teams and stakeholders across a global organization.
You understand the current threat landscape and how it impacts incident response strategies in SaaS-oriented corporate IT environments
Where You'll Be This role is based in London or Stockholm.
