We are vigorously investing in Oracle Cloud to provide the broadest, most secure cloud in the industry. Oracle offers a suite of integrated services, including applications as a service, platform as a service, and infrastructure as a service, that eliminates the data and business process fragmentation which comes with cloud silos. This is your opportunity to be part of the exciting Cloud Security team that is responsible for protecting Oracle’s infrastructure and keeping customer workloads safe.
Oracle’s mission is to provide customers with best-in-class compute, storage, networking, database, security, and an ever-expanding set of foundational cloud-based security services. We are rapidly expanding the size and scale of our business and are looking for highly talented individuals to join our team.
As a vital member of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure’s (OCI) Security Operations Organization, you will be at the forefront of protecting Oracle’s cloud and enterprise environments from both external adversaries and insider threats. As our team continues to expand and tackle ambitious initiatives, we are seeking experienced security professionals with a proven track record in safeguarding critical infrastructure and data.
Our rapidly growing team specializes in threat hunting, analyzing indicators of compromise (IOCs), investigating security incidents, managing incident responses, and conducting digital forensics across IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS platforms. In this role, you will be part of a dedicated security operations team, leveraging data loss prevention, case management tools, and developing automation to detect and respond to security threats in real time. Additionally, you will play a critical role in designing and implementing data loss prevention strategies to proactively mitigate potential data security risks. As the last line of defense when security controls are breached, your expertise will be instrumental in securing Oracle’s data and infrastructure.
The ideal candidate is a proactive self-starter with a strong sense of ownership, accountability, and capable of delivering effective results under pressure. By bringing deep expertise in security engineering, you will help drive the strategic development of our enterprise security threat program.
The Role
We are seeking a seasoned security engineering professional that will build and operate advanced security tools, processes, and automation to identify and mitigate data security risks related to proprietary data across OCI and Oracle’s broader enterprise. You will lead sensitive DLP investigations, conduct thorough root cause analyses, and work collaboratively with partner teams - including SOC, digital forensics, incident response, physical security, engineering teams as well as legal and HR - to respond effectively to diverse and sophisticated threats.
Monitor and Analyze User Activity: Continuously monitor, analyze, and investigate anomalous user behaviors and activities across networks, applications, and endpoints to detect suspicious patterns or potential insider threats.
Build and Maintain Detection and Response Systems: Develop, implement, and manage tools, analytics, and automated detection systems specifically designed to identify potentially malicious activity.
Data Loss Prevention (DLP): As a member of the DLP operations team, enhance data loss prevention strategies, including deploying and tuning DLP technologies to prevent unauthorized access or transmission of sensitive proprietary data.
AI-Enabled Security Operations: build, deploy, and operate AI-enabled capabilities that accelerate DLP investigations, enhance analyst decision-making, and improve detection, triage, and response workflows. Drive the adoption of AI-powered tooling and automation while ensuring solutions are secure, effective, and aligned with operational and governance requirements.
Incident Investigations: Conduct thorough investigations of security incidents related to potential or confirmed threats, collaborating closely with legal, HR, and compliance teams as needed.
