ABOUT THE ROLE

As a Forward Deployed Data Engineer — SIEM/SOAR, you build the content that powers TENEX's MDR delivery. From detection rules and log parsers to SOAR playbooks, dashboards, and custom API integrations, your work is what makes the platform intelligent. You are also a technical trainer — helping customers understand the content they're running and the platform they're operating.

- Build and validate log parsers for new data sources integrated into customer environments

- Develop and maintain SOAR playbooks, automation workflows, and dashboards for common alert types and operational use cases

- Build cloud run functions, scripts, and API integrations where native connectors or content do not exist

- Collaborate with Deployment Engineers to ensure content is ready for new customer go-lives

- Monitor detection coverage gaps and proactively develop content to address them

- Incorporate threat intelligence and adversary TTPs (MITRE ATT&CK) into detection logic

- Serve as an advanced enablement resource for customers — training them on detection content, dashboards, and platform capabilities at a deeper technical level

- Document all content with clear metadata, use cases, and tuning notes

- Support AI-assisted content generation workflows with human review as the quality gate

- Experience building and maintaining SOAR playbooks and automation workflows

- Proficiency with log parser development for diverse data source types

- Knowledge of MITRE ATT&CK framework and its application to detection content

- Experience with Python, cloud run functions, and REST API integrations

- Experience building security dashboards for operational use cases

- Understanding of threat intelligence and how TTPs translate into actionable detection logic

SOFT SKILLS

- Strong problem-solving and troubleshooting skills with a bias toward action

- Excellent customer-facing communication and collaboration abilities

- Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-performance startup environment

- Passion for cybersecurity, automation, and continuous improvement

EDUCATION & CERTIFICATIONS

- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience)

- Relevant certifications such as CISSP, CISM, GIAC certifications, Google Cloud Professional, Microsoft SC-200/AZ-500, or AWS Certified Solutions Architect are a plus

WHY JOIN US?

- Opportunity to work with cutting-edge AI-driven cybersecurity technologies and next-generation security platforms

- Collaborate with a talented and innovative team focused on continuously improving security operations

- Competitive salary and benefits package

- A culture of growth and development, with opportunities to expand your expertise in AI, cybersecurity, and engineering

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
