Red Canary operates 24/7 to track down threats using the entirety of our customer’s data and deliver fast and practical detections to our customers. Together, we create a customer-centric culture that fosters success, adoption, and continuous growth.

What you’ll do (Role Expectations)

• Research coverage opportunities to create new detectors and tune existing ones through detector development
• Improve the Detection Engineering workflow through orchestration and automation

Who You Are (Success Profile)

• You thrive in ambiguity. You're comfortable building the path as you walk it. You thrive in a dynamic environment, seeing ambiguity not as a hindrance, but as the raw material to build something meaningful.
• You are customer-obsessed. You build deep empathy for the customer—both internal and external—and anchor your decisions in solving their real-world problems. You champion their needs from start to finish, knowing their success is our success.
• You operate with urgency. You understand that in a high-growth environment, speed and quality are not mutually exclusive. You have a relentless focus on execution and a bias for action, delivering high-impact results quickly to win for the customer and the team.
• You champion simplicity. You are skilled at distilling complex problems, user needs, and technical concepts into clear, simple, and actionable plans. You are a precise communicator who brings clarity and focus to every interaction.
• You are resilient and adaptable. You view change as an opportunity and setbacks as temporary. You maintain composure and focus in high-pressure situations, guiding yourself and your team through complexity with a steady, positive hand.

• Cybersecurity operational experience with a focus in Detection and Response
• Must be located in the United States during the SkillBridge program
