Engineering Manage - Security Incident Response

Location: Remote, United States

Netflix is the world's leading streaming entertainment service with 250 million paid memberships in over 190 countries, enjoying TV series, documentaries, feature films, and mobile games across a wide variety of genres and languages. The Security Incident Response Team is a global team that works to protect Netflix and its customers across this broad range of services.

As part of Detection and Response, the Security Incident Response Team partners closely with Security Operations and Intelligence and Detection Engineering. You’ll lead a team that focuses on Incident Response preparedness and best practices, identification and mitigation of Security Incidents, builds its own tools and automation, and works with the broader information security org to identify and reduce risks. This is a mature and globally distributed team, and we are looking for a leader who can manage a hybrid team of security software engineers and security engineers, evolve the Incident Response program to handle rapidly changing business requirements and align closely with other incident management teams across the business.

The person in this role will own, build, and advance our Incident Response charter, including games, insider risk, and regulatory assessments. You will closely collaborate with many other Netflix teams to actively defend Netflix’s assets across streaming, studio, games, and enterprise. This is an active and highly visible role that requires an appreciation for operational excellence, a pragmatic view of risk, and a strong ability to build cross-functional relationships. 

Desired Background:

• You are a meticulous and responsive cross-team communicator and program leader.

• Your technical background aligns with the current team operating at the intersection of software engineering, Incident Response, and digital forensics.

• You are well versed in the latest adversary techniques, attack lifecycle, and Incident Response procedures.

• You can successfully coach, mentor, develop, and inspire a talented and senior team.

• You are confident in working with frontline teammates, executives, and third-party organizations to inform and coordinate collaborative efforts.

• You can drive success with minimal process and a heavy emphasis on individual responsibility.

• You cultivate team morale and culture and partner with leadership to implement strategies for managing the high-velocity and often stressful tempo.

• You have experience managing a hybrid team of in-person and remote engineers.

We are looking for thoughtful security professionals who enable our mission, lead with empathy, and encourage and enable the growth of our teams.
