[Remote] Security Operations Engineer

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. SafelyYou is a mission-driven company using AI, hardware, and remote clinical expertise to improve safety and outcomes in senior living. The Security Operations Engineer will lead security operations execution, including SIEM architecture, infrastructure hardening, automation, threat intelligence, security project management, systems lifecycle ownership, and DevOps escalation triage.

Responsibilities

• Act as the primary internal technical lead for upcoming third-party security assessments and external vulnerability testing, driving vendor coordination, timeline management, and remediation tracking
• Lead the design, implementation, and ongoing management of our Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) capability. Establish robust log analysis pipelines to ensure comprehensive visibility into environment logs and system telemetry
• Leverage modern AI tools and automation frameworks to streamline incident detection, reduce false positives, and automate routine operational tasks, maximizing the efficiency of our security infrastructure
• Contribute to the meaningful development of a proactive threat intelligence review process. Keep the EIT team informed on relevant, emerging security trends and distill this data into actionable guidance for other teams across the company
• Own the initial setup, secure configuration, and baseline hardening of new infrastructure, applications, and corporate systems across the enterprise
• Develop clean, repeatable documentation and runbooks to seamlessly transition newly hardened systems over to the Support team for day-to-day maintenance, eliminating single points of failure
• Manage high-level systems work, application onboarding, and lifecycle ownership within EIT to maintain continuous attack surface visibility
• Partner closely with the IT Support lane to establish seamless handover workflows, share threat intelligence, and collaborate on routine incident response procedures to ensure enterprise-wide operational resilience
• Serve as the first point of contact for security-related findings and requests currently escalated ad hoc into DevOps (Shared Services/R&D) tickets. Own initial triage, resolve what can be resolved within SecOps, and only forward to DevOps what genuinely requires their ownership — reducing the unpredictable inbound load this creates for that team today
