We are looking for a Cyber Hunter and Technical Leader to build a next-generation Insider Risk program. You will lead a team of analysts and engineers, utilizing AI-driven behavioral analytics and cutting-edge Data Security Posture Management tools to detect anomalies in behavior .

As the Team Lead for Insider Risk & Data Defense, you will hold one of the most critical mandates in the organization: safeguarding our proprietary data, financial assets and trust aware culture.

What You’ll Do:

• Lead the "Internal Hunter" strategy: define the roadmap for the Insider Risk function, manage day-to-day operations, and mentor a team of high-performing analysts and engineers.

• Optimize signal-to-noise ratio: relentlessly tune SIEM and UEBA logic to ensure the team is hunting real threats.
• Harden lifecycle security: collaborate with IT and HR on "Joiner, Mover, Leaver" processes to ensure access is strictly governed at every stage of the employee journey.
