Requirements - The role calls for blue-team security work, including threat investigation and incident response. - Judgment to make containment decisions and establish safe limits for automated actions. - Ability to document incidents and produce post-mortems. - Familiarity with Linux, Docker, Caddy, or deployment pipelines is relevant to the described environment.
Benefits and work setup - Remote-first work with asynchronous collaboration and a weekly review. - Initial training on the team’s tools and equipment provided.
