Cyber Threat Engineer (HYBRID)

Overview

BRMi is seeking a Cyber Threat Engineer to support the core functions of the Threat Intelligence and Emerging Risk (TIER) team. This position will provide dedicated engineering capacity to develop, automate, integrate, and maintain the tools and processes TIER analysts use for threat hunting and operationalizing threat intelligence.

The role will support threat intelligence ingestion and enrichment workflows, automated data processing, YARA and SIGMA rule development, technical integrations, and reusable threat-hunting capabilities. Dedicated engineering support will reduce manual effort, improve the scalability and consistency of TIER operations, and allow analysts to focus more directly on threat intelligence and emerging-risk activities.

The Cyber Threat Engineer is a mid-level cybersecurity engineering role responsible for developing and maintaining the tools, automation, integrations, and technical processes that support TIER threat intelligence and threat-hunting activities. Working from TIER-defined requirements, the engineer will independently design, test, document, and maintain reusable technical solutions. The position enables threat analysis and hunting through engineering rather than serving as the primary threat analyst.

Benefits:• Comprehensive Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance• Employer-Paid Life Insurance• Employer-Paid Short-Term and Long-Term Disability Insurance• 401(k) • Paid Time Off (PTO) that includes Vacation Leave, Sick Leave, and 11 Paid Holidays• Educational Assistance

Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain tools, scripts, and automated workflows that enable TIER threat-hunting and intelligence operations.
• Build repeatable processes for collecting, ingesting, enriching, transforming, and operationalizing threat intelligence data.
• Develop, test, document, and maintain YARA rules and supporting detection processes.
• Create Python-based utilities and script automation that reduce manual effort and improve workflow scalability.
• Translate analyst requirements into technical solutions, integrations, automated processes, and reusable capabilities.
• Apply the MITRE ATT&CK framework when developing threat-hunting tools, detections, and supporting processes.
• Integrate internal and external threat intelligence sources into TIER workflows and supporting tools.
• Validate and perform quality assurance for tools, scripts, rules, integrations, and automation before operational use.
• Troubleshoot and maintain TIER tools, data pipelines, integrations, and automated workflows.
• Maintain technical documentation and procedures needed to sustain developed capabilities.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in cybersecurity, computer science, information technology, information systems, engineering, or a related technical discipline preferred; relevant experience may be considered in lieu of a degree.
• Master's degree in cybersecurity, information assurance, computer science, or a comparable technical discipline strongly preferred; comparable advanced technical qualifications or demonstrated expertise may be considered.
• Demonstrated experience in cybersecurity engineering, security automation, or threat engineering.
• Direct experience supporting Cyber Threat Intelligence or threat-hunting function required.
• Demonstrated experience with Python (3+ years), script-based automation, and YARA and SIGMA rule development.
• Practical experience applying the MITRE ATT&CK framework to cybersecurity or threat-hunting use cases.
• Security+, CySA+, GCIH, GCIA, or comparable cybersecurity certifications preferred, but not required.

Key Skills

• Strong cybersecurity engineering, automation, troubleshooting, and technical problem-solving skills.
• Ability to translate analyst requirements into reliable, reusable, and maintainable technical solutions.
• Ability to independently develop, test, document, and maintain scripts, integrations, automation, and supporting processes.
• Understanding of threat intelligence and threat-hunting concepts and workflows.
• Effective communication and collaboration with threat analysts and defensive cybersecurity partners.
• Strong attention to quality, repeatability, maintainability, and documentation.

Expected Contribution

This position will provide dedicated engineering support for TIER's core threat intelligence and threat-hunting functions rather than primary ownership of threat analysis. The engineer will convert analyst requirements into scalable tools, rules, integrations, and automated processes that improve operational efficiency and consistency. This capacity will reduce the technical workload carried by TIER analysts and support continued expansion of the team's threat-hunting capabilities.
