Senior Threat Intelligence Analyst

Role Overview

• Lead collaborative workstreams with external partners to identify and understand advanced and emerging threats
• Work day‑to‑day with security architects, platform engineers, and advanced defensive teams to ensure APT tradecraft, attacker behavior, and AI‑enabled threat scenarios are explicitly reflected in threat models and architectural decisions.
• Translate advanced persistent threat actor tactics, techniques, and attack lifecycles into concrete architectural risks, defensive assumptions, and design constraints for modern enterprise and cloud environments.
• Collaborate closely with technical control owners to map adversary techniques to real control implementations, identifying gaps or misalignment against advanced and adaptive threats.
• Provide intelligence‑driven input into threat modeling exercises, helping teams identify realistic attack paths, trust boundary weaknesses, and high‑impact failure modes.
• Partner with advanced defensive and detection engineering teams to inform control design, detection strategies, and response patterns based on observed and emerging APT behavior.
• Work with security testing teams (e.g., red team, adversary emulation, assurance functions) to ensure testing scenarios and hypotheses are aligned to current and anticipated APT tactics, including AI‑assisted techniques.
• Act as a trusted intelligence advisor during architecture and design reviews, clearly articulating how design choices influence exposure to sophisticated threat actors.
• Continuously assess how new technologies and platforms—including cloud‑native services, automation, and AI systems—change attacker opportunities and threat modeling assumptions.
