As a Security Operations Engineer at Island, you will be a core member of the SecOps team, owning incident detection, triage, and response across Island's infrastructure and enterprise browser platform. You will work closely with the SecOps Lead to mature our IR capabilities, build the automation and tooling that power our operational workflows, and help keep Island and its customers ahead of real-world threats.
This is a hands-on, build-and-operate role - ideal for someone who is equally comfortable writing a detection rule, investigating a live incident, and shipping a Torq workflow before end of day.
