Role Level: L3 Senior Specialist / Lead / Escalation Owner

Role Summary:

The L3 Threat Hunting, Red Team & Threat Modeling Lead owns the advanced hunting and proactive security assessment capability, driving standard and custom threat hunts, governing the quality of executive/detailed reporting, and leading threat modeling assessments using automated tooling such as ThreatModeler.

This role provides technical leadership and escalation ownership, ensuring hunts and threat models produce measurable risk reduction outcomes and that red team insights translate into prioritized improvements

InScope Tools & Skills

- Threat Hunting (TIP-driven): Feed recommendations, execution leadership for standard/custom hunts, executive + technical reporting
- Threat Modeling (Automated): ThreatModeler-based assessments (and governance of templates/patterns)
- Red Teaming (Advanced Adversary Simulation): Lead/support planning and execution oversight, ensuring safe operations and explicit outputs
- Tuskira (Knowledge): Familiarity/working knowledge to leverage posture/exposure insights to prioritize hunts and validate control gaps (desired; not stated in SOW)

Key Responsibilities (L3)

1) Threat Hunting Leadership (Standard + Custom Hunts)





- Lead the execution and continuous improvement of standard threat analysis and hunts and custom hunts, ensuring repeatability and quality.
- Drive intelligence-led hunting by recommending threat intelligence inputs that best support hunt goals and operational priorities.
- Provide executive and detailed threat analysis and hunt reports with clear risk, impact, and recommended actions.

2) Threat Modeling Program (ThreatModeler)

- Own the approach and quality bar for threat modeling assessments using ThreatModeler, including consistent documentation and reusable patterns.
- Guide assessments for defined projects/apps and ensure findings are actionable, prioritized, and aligned to risk treatment practices.
- Drive standardization: templates, threat libraries, and control mapping to accelerate future assessments.

3) Red Teaming / Adversary Simulation Oversight

- Lead/oversee advanced adversary simulation (red team) activities, including planning support, risk controls, reporting expectations, and follow-through.
- Ensure red team findings translate into concrete improvements: hunt hypotheses, detection gaps, and prioritized remediation recommendations.

4) Exposure & Posture Insight

- Use exposure/posture insights (e.g., from Tuskira)



to prioritize hunts, validate systemic control gaps, and inform improvement roadmaps.

5) Governance, Mentoring & Continuous Improvement

- Provide L3 escalation support for complex hunts, ambiguous findings, and high-risk threat model outputs.
- Mentor L2 analysts, review hunt quality, and strengthen playbooks/runbooks based on recurring themes.

Required Skills & Experience

- 812+ years in threat hunting, incident response, adversary simulation, or advanced security assessment roles
- Proven capability delivering both technical deep dives and executive-ready reporting for hunts and assessments
- Hands-on leadership or SME-level experience with ThreatModeler (or equivalent) threat modeling approach
- Strong experience with adversary simulation/red teaming concepts and translating results into defensive improvements

Preferred

- Familiarity with Tuskira and exposure-based prioritization approaches (desired)

Certifications (Preferred / Nice to Have)

- Advanced threat hunting / IR certifications (role-aligned)
- Red team / offensive security certifications (role-aligned)
- Threat modeling / application security certifications (role-aligned)

Success Measures (L3)

- Reduction in undetected attack paths through effective hunts and improved detection recommendations
- Faster, more consistent risk identification through standardized ThreatModeler assessments
- Tangible security uplift from red team outcomes (validated improvements and repeatable learning loops).
