Job Description:

At Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), we are seeking a highly experienced and technically proficient Principal Advanced Threat response analyst to join our global security organization.

The ideal candidate will have over a decade of hands-on experience in incident response, threat hunting, threat intelligence, digital forensics, malware analysis and incident management, with proven expertise in leading investigations into Advanced Persistent Threats (APT) and other complex, multi-stage intrusions, including widescale Ransomware attacks.

This role requires a blend of technical mastery, investigative acumen, and leadership capability.

The candidate will drive proactive and reactive threat hunting efforts, lead critical incident response engagements, and develop both short-term containment and long-term remediation strategies to strengthen the organization's cyber defense and improve overall security posture.

Key Responsibilities


* Lead complex threat investigations involving APTs, ransomware, insider threats, and nation-state activity across enterprise and cloud environments.


* Drive proactive threat hunting programs focused on emerging TTPs, behavioral analytics, and detection gaps within EDR, SIEM, and network telemetry data.


* Develop and execute purple team exercises, simulating advanced adversarial tradecraft to assess detection and response capabilities.


* Collaborate with red teams and offensive security engineers to understand attacker tools, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) at a deep technical level and translate that understanding into effective detections.


* Perform incident command during major security events - leading multidisciplinary response teams, engaging executive stakeholders, and delivering after-action reports and strategic recommendations.


* Develop custom detections, playbooks, and automation in Splunk, Sentinel, or other platforms to improve time-to-detect and time-to-contain metrics.


* Mentor and coach junior analysts, hunters, and incident responders - fostering an environment of continuous learning and operational excellence.
