Senior Security Detection and Monitoring Engineer

As a driven and proactive Senior Security Detection and Monitoring Engineer you will focus on Security Operations, Detection Engineering, Threat Detection and Incident Response. You will develop and maintain security solutions to improve detection capabilities within the whole Adyen ecosystem, automate difficult manual tasks and investigate security incidents. In short, we want you to build and operate a highly effective security detection and response system!

How do we do that?

Collaborating: To create meaningful detections and to respond to triggered alerts you will collaborate with other members of the security, product, development and infrastructure teams. We do not work in isolation.

Developing our very own tool: You will implement complex detection logic in our in-house developed security monitoring tool with a mix of Python and your bright ideas. Advanced Python development skills are a must, “a bit of scripting” is not enough for the challenges we have ahead of us.

Operating our very own tool: all our security engineers developing new detections also act as security analysts and incident responders dealing with the alerts triggered by the monitoring system. We do not believe in the typical task segregation of traditional security operation centers. Do you agree with this vie
