About the role
- ABOUT FLUIDSTACK We exist to make humanity more free.
- For most of human history, you farmed or you starved.
- Technology gave people more time for the things they wanted to do, instead of things they had to do.
Responsibilities
- Extreme ownership. Full autonomy. Own things end to end often taking on scope outside your core role without being asked to get things done.
- Velocity. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.
- Build detection-as-code pipelines so every rule is version-controlled, tested, and peer-reviewed before it ships, and false-positive rates are measured, not guessed.
- Lead triage and response for the alerts you build, and close out incidents with root-cause writeups that change the detection stack, not just the ticket queue.
- Build automation that removes manual triage steps, so the team's alert load scales slower than the company does.
Requirements
- 5+ years in detection engineering or threat hunting inside a mature security operations org (cloud-native infrastructure, SaaS, or fintech).
- Deep hands-on experience with SIEM and EDR tooling: Splunk, Elastic, CrowdStrike, or equivalent, including query languages and pipeline tuning, not just console use.
- You've written and maintained detection logic mapped to MITRE ATT&CK against real adversary behavior, and you can point to detections that caught something.
- You know the difference between a noisy rule and a broken one, and you tune or kill detections before responders learn to ignore them.
Nice to have
- experience securing physical infrastructure or OT/data center environments, purple team experience, or contributions to open-source detection content (Sigma, detection rule repos).
- Fluidstack is an Equal Employment Opportunity Employer.
- Fluidstack will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records pursuant to applicable law.
- You will receive a confirmation email once your application has successfully been accepted.
Compensation
- $10k-$100k
Benefits
- We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
Company info
- Build detection and response coverage across corporate, cloud, and data center environments that are growing faster than any off-the-shelf playbook assumes.
- Secure the systems and networks that frontier AI labs depend on, where downtime and compromise both carry real cost.
- Stand up security tooling, identity, and endpoint management for a company that adds people, sites, and vendors every month.
- Turn incident learnings and threat intel into durable detection logic instead of one-off fixes.
