About the Role

Argus is hiring a Senior Detection Engineer to design and ship the detection logic that protects our customers' most sensitive data. You will own the full lifecycle — from threat modeling and rule design to telemetry, tuning, and post-incident review — working alongside research, product, and customer-facing teams.

What You Will Do

Build and maintain detection content across cloud, SaaS, and endpoint surfaces. Translate emerging threat patterns into high-fidelity detections with low false-positive rates. Partner with the research team to ship new detection capabilities tied to our classification engine. Tune existing rules using customer telemetry, red team findings, and post-incident retrospectives. Contribute to internal tooling that makes detection authoring faster across the org.

What We Are Looking For

5+ years in detection engineering, threat hunting, or SOC operations. Deep familiarity with MITRE ATT&CK, Sigma, or equivalent detection frameworks. Strong programming skills in Python or Go. Hands-on experience with cloud security telemetry — AWS CloudTrail, GCP audit logs, Azure activity logs. Comfort writing detections that survive contact with real adversaries, not just lab environments.
