Interested in joining us on our journey?
GE Appliances is seeking a Senior Security Engineer, Security Operations to serve as the senior technical lead for the company’s detection and response capability. Day-to-day 24x7 monitoring, alert triage, and vulnerability operations are delivered by our managed security services provider (MSSP); this role is not a shift lead or people manager. Instead, it owns the engineering behind the SOC — the detection and response platforms, detection content, automation, and telemetry — and drives the execution and continuous enhancement of how threats are detected, investigated, and contained across enterprise IT, cloud, and manufacturing (OT) environments. The engineer acts as the MSSP’s technical counterpart and the escalation point for complex incidents, and is accountable for measurable improvements in detection coverage, detection fidelity, and response speed.

How You'll Create Possibilities
Key Responsibilities:
Serve as the senior technical lead and subject-matter expert for security operations, owning the architecture, configuration, and operational health of the detection and response platforms and setting the technical standards the MSSP operates against.
Design, build, test, and maintain detection content — correlation rules, behavioral analytics, and IOC/BIOC rules — mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework, and manage the full detection lifecycle using detection-as-code practices (version control, testing, peer review, and documentation).
Own telemetry coverage: identify visibility gaps and onboard, parse, and normalize log sources across endpoints, identity, Microsoft 365, cloud, network, email, DLP, and OT; monitor ingestion health and manage data volume and retention cost.
Engineer security automation and orchestration (SOAR) playbooks and integrations that enrich alerts, automate containment, and connect security tooling with IT service management and collaboration platforms to reduce manual effort and MSSP handling time.
Provide technical oversight of MSSP output, in partnership with the Information Security leader who owns the MSSP commercial relationship: review triage and investigation quality, escalation accuracy, and run-book adherence; drive false-positive reduction and tuning; and update MSSP run books and playbooks as detections and the environment change.
Serve as the Tier 3 escalation point and technical lead for complex or high-severity incidents escalated by the MSSP, performing hands-on investigation, endpoint and log analysis, scoping, and containment, and coordinating with the external incident response retainer when engaged.
Lead hypothesis-driven threat hunting informed by threat intelligence and threats targeting manufacturing, converting hunt findings into durable detections and hardening recommendations.
Operationalize threat intelligence by translating advisories, vulnerability disclosures, and adversary reporting into detections, hunts, and blocking actions, and track threat actors relevant to GE Appliances.
Validate detection and response effectiveness through purple-team exercises, adversary emulation, and breach-and-attack simulation, measuring coverage against MITRE ATT&CK and confirming that the MSSP detects and responds as expected.
