Our strategic agenda spans the companies defining the next era of technology - hyperscalers, AI labs, the AI hardware supply chain, data platform providers, and the broader AI ecosystem. This type of work—work that changes the world—is what the tech industry was founded on. So, if you're ready to seize the endless opportunities and leave your mark, come join us. ### THE ROLE As the Senior Manager of Security Operations, you will lead and scale Everpure's global Detection Engineering and Cloud Incident Detection & Response (CIDR) teams. You will own the mission of transforming SecOps into a proactive, intelligence-driven defense engine that measurably reduces risk across cloud, SaaS, infrastructure, and endpoint environments. Partnering closely with GRC, Infrastructure, Product Security, and Engineering leadership, you will establish operational work plans, detection standards, and response strategies that safeguard the Everpure Platform against sophisticated global threats. ### WHAT YOU'LL DO Direct Detection Engineering & Incident Response Strategy: Establish operational objectives, work plans, and SLAs across threat detection, automated response workflows, and incident triage to continuously optimize Mean Time to Detect (MTTD) and Mean Time to Respond (MTTR). Champion Threat-Informed Detection & Validation: Lead the deployment and continuous refinement of a high-signal detection inventory mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, validating control efficacy through automated simulations, red/purple team exercises, and threat hunt findings.

Lead Executive Incident Governance & Postmortems: Direct major incident response efforts, oversee root-cause analyses, and translate complex security metrics into actionable executive dashboards and board-level risk reports that drive cross-functional remediation. Manage & Develop SecOps Engineering Teams: Direct resource allocation, budget priorities, and professional development across multiple specialized security squads, cultivating a high-performing team culture focused on operational excellence. - We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore, you will be expected to work from the Santa Clara, CA office in compliance with Everpure's policies, unless you are on PTO, or work travel, or other approved leave. ### WHAT YOU BRING SecOps & Incident Leadership Expertise: Proven track record of 4+ years of direct management experience while leading and scaling enterprise security operations, detection engineering, and incident response functions across hybrid cloud and SaaS environments.
