Threat Detection and Response Specialist

Senior Associate in the Threat Detection & Response (TDR) team combining hands-on technical work with a consulting overlay. Responsibilities include hands-on work with SIEM (Splunk primary, Microsoft Sentinel secondary) for configuration, optimization, and troubleshooting; developing/refining detection rules and use cases; conducting threat hunting; supporting incident response; and working with log management architectures and data sources. Client-facing duties involve independently leading technical workshops, presenting findings and recommendations, and maintaining relationships with client security teams. Documentation and business development tasks include producing assessment reports, solution proposals, executive summaries, roadmaps, and contributing to internal knowledge bases and service offerings. Time allocation is roughly 50% technical delivery, 30% client communication, and 20% documentation. The role requires willingness to work in a hybrid model (technical work, client interaction, and documentation) and presents growth opportunities toward a managerial track within 2–3 years, with potential for international assignments. Benefits include flexible hours, overtime and annual bonus, generous PTO, devices and benefit programs, ongoing training and certifications, and potential future opportunities at PwC offices abroad.
