We are looking for a Security Engineer II to be part of our Security Operations & Engineering (SecOps) team. SecOps is committed to proactively detect, respond to, simulate, and identify breach attempts and threat actors. You will work with a team who oversee overall enterprise security systems implementation, lifecycle (S-SDLC), and support. You will help improve the company’s ability to respond to threats through technology selection, internal product development and implementations with a heavy emphasis on automation of manual tasks and processes. We’re looking for security engineers that can work collaboratively with our security, product, infrastructure architecture and engineering teams to implement secure solutions. This role will report to the Manager of Security Operations and Engineering

What you’ll be doing

• Design, build, maintain, tune and enhance the effectiveness of our security controls in multiple security domains including but not limited to:
• Cloud security
• Endpoint detection and response (EDR)
• Data loss prevention (DLP)
• Security Information and Event Management (SIEM)
• Identity and Access Management (IAM)
• Email security and phishing defenses
• Secure access service edge (SASE)
• Automate and optimize workflows to reduce manual effort in detection, analysis, and response.
• Refine detection and alerting rules to enable identification and remediation of potential threats with actionable, high-quality signals.
• Participate in on-call rotation, resolving most issues independently and escalating to Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) where necessary.
• Collaborate with peer teams to secure applications, business software and services, and infrastructure.
• Drive secure integrations for cloud applications and infrastructure.
• Create and maintain documentation including knowledge base articles, incident response playbooks, and project documentation.
• Lead post-incident reviews (RCAs) and contribute to lessons learned.
  
  

What success looks like in this role:

• Improved time to detect and resolve security issues
• Reduced number of vulnerabilities found in production
• Improved engagement scores between technology teams and security teams
• Security events are consistently monitored, investigated, and resolved in a timely way, with clear documentation that allows others to easily follow the lifecycle of the issue.
• Projects and initiatives are delivered on schedule, driving measurable improvements in security maturity and reducing risk across the organization.
• Security processes are proactively improved and automated to reduce manual work, increase efficiency, and strengthen detection and response capabilities.
• Documentation of systems, incidents, and projects is accurate, current, and serves as a reliable resource for the team and stakeholders.
• Communication with colleagues, stakeholders, and customers is timely, clear, and professional - ensuring that others feel informed and supported without needing to chase for updates.
• Team meetings and cross-functional sessions are opportunities to lead, share expertise, and influence outcomes - success means being an active participant and sometimes facilitator.
• Collaboration with engineering, product, infrastructure, and GRC teams results in trusted partnerships where security is seen as an enabler, not a blocker.
• You are recognized by peers and stakeholders as a dependable contributor who consistently follows through on commitments and raises the bar for security practice at Spring Health.

• Excellent communication and collaboration skills; able to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences.
