Staff Security Operations Specialist

Your Role

You will own how Workleap detects, investigates and responds to threats across Workleap and ShareGate, and you will build the AI layer that runs it. Our security tooling generates more noise than a small team can work, and too many findings are ambiguous or wrong. This role exists now to turn detection and response into a system where agents triage, enrich and investigate, and people make the calls that genuinely need judgment. It is a hands on Staff individual contributor role with no direct reports.

Your Impact

• Build the pipeline that runs security operations end to end: integrations that pull alerts and findings out of every source tool, an agentic system that triages, enriches, correlates and drafts the investigation, and a connection into Jira that routes each result to the owning team with evidence and a fix path, so no finding is ever copied by hand.
• Define the trust model for those agents, deciding what they close alone, what they recommend and what always goes to a human, backed by evals and secured against prompt injection and permission abuse.
• Drive false positives and misrated findings out of our security tooling, so every finding that reaches a person is real and correctly prioritized.
• Own detection engineering end to end, written as code and mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, so coverage survives any change of platform.
• Lead security incident response from triage to postmortem, with agents gathering the evidence, and hold our managed detection partner to a measurable standard.
• Make security a partner developers want to work with, delivering findings in their workflow with clear evidence and a fix path.

Your Team

Over the next 12 months, LeapSec is delivering two strategic bets: putting security inside product squads, with agents carrying vulnerability and detection work, and automating SOC 2 evidence so nobody gathers it by hand. You will own the detection and response side of that work: cleaning up the tooling, building the agents, and proving how much they can be trusted to do alone.

LeapSec covers Security Operations and Compliance across Workleap and ShareGate. You will report to the Director of Infrastructure and Security and work daily with our Staff Application Security Specialist and security tooling team, and as needed with Infrastructure, ITX and product engineering. We are a small team with a wide mandate: we track work honestly in Jira, deliver on fixed dates, and expect people to own outcomes end to end.

Our environment is Azure first, with a cloud native SIEM and XDR stack, Zscaler, Cloudflare and a managed detection partner today.
