The Cyber Threat Intelligence Hunter will sit within Unit 42 Managed Threat Hunting and support proactive, intelligence-led hunting across customer environments. This role combines hands-on threat hunting with cyber threat intelligence analysis, helping multinational organizations stay one step ahead of adversaries and cyber threats.
Key Responsibilities
Analyze public and private threat intelligence, Unit 42 research, adversary campaigns, malware activity, infrastructure, indicators, and TTPs.
Translate threat intelligence into actionable hunting hypotheses, investigation workflows, hunting queries, and customer-facing findings.
Execute existing threat hunting reports and hunting workflows, investigate results, and support timely customer reporting.
Investigate scheduled hunt detections and compose clear, professional reports when relevant.
Investigate hunting leads based on IOCs, threat intelligence, internal detections, customer telemetry, and emerging adversary behaviors.
Monitor the threat landscape and prepare initial context for emerging campaigns, enabling the global team to continue deeper investigation and hunting.
Collaborate with threat hunters, detection engineers, incident responders, MDR, and Unit 42 researchers to operationalize intelligence quickly and effectively.
Escalate major, unclear, or high-impact security events to the Threat Hunting leadership team when necessary.
Provide ongoing feedback on findings, hunting reports, queries, intelligence workflows, and operational processes to support continuous improvement.

We're looking for a Senior Principal Threat Hunter to serve as a senior technical leader within our Cyber Defense Team team.

This is a high impact individual contributor role, you won't manage people, but you'll influence how we hunt, investigate

and respond to threats across cloud and SaaS environments at scale.

You'll be the person who takes a weak signal, a piece of emerging intelligence, or an unusual customer activity pattern and turns it into a meaningful investigation, a proactive hunt, or a new detection opportunity.

You'll lead the most complex investigations, drive threat intelligence initiatives, and help define the hunting methodologies that guide our customers' security outcomes.

As one of the team's most senior practitioners, you'll act as a force multiplier across hunting, intelligence, and incident response functions, elevating technical standards, mentoring peers, and helping shape the future of our detection and response capabilities.

What You'll Do
- Design and execute proactive threat hunts across cloud and SaaS environments (AWS, Azure, GCP, Okta, M365), grounded in current intelligence and ATT&CK-mapped adversary behavior.
- Mature and operate a recurring threat intelligence reporting function, turning intel into hunt leads, detection opportunities, and customer-facing narratives.
- Lead incident response investigations during US business hours, from scoping through root cause; step into the Incident Commander role when required.
- Continuously monitor threat detections and deliver responsive services with thorough event analysis and judgement.
- Triage and investigate security alerts across cloud and SaaS environments, separating true threats from noise and surfacing detection gaps to the detection engineering team.
- Leverage automation and AI tooling to scale impact, and propose improvements for processes, workflows, products, and policies.
- PLUS: Exposure to detection engineering, tooling and automation development, or prior managed services (MSSP) experience.
