JOB REQUIREMENTS: About the Job: The Senior Threat Hunt Engineer is an
advanced and highly trusted role supporting the enterprise cybersecurity
program. As a member of Northwestern Mutual's Threat Hunting Program
under the Threat Intelligence umbrella, the Senior Threat Hunt Engineer
is primarily responsible for developing and maintaining the operational
and technical foundation of the program including automation, tooling
integration, detection handoff pipelines, and AI-assisted hunt
workflows. Grounded in threat intelligence and hunt experience, the
Senior Threat Hunt Engineer also executes proactive and signal-driven
hunts across endpoint, network, cloud, and identity telemetry,
translating findings into durable detections and institutional
knowledge. This role works closely with internal technical teams -
including Threat Intelligence, Detection & Response, Detection
Engineering, Adversarial Simulation, Purple Team, Incident Command, and
Governance, Risk & Compliance - and with peer organizations,
industry-sharing groups, and law enforcement affiliations where
appropriate. The Senior Threat Hunt Engineer supports the hunt community
across Cyber Defense, contributes engineering rigor to hunt artifacts,
and ensures repeatable, version-controlled hunt processes as the program
matures from manual to increasingly automated operations. What You'll
Do: Maintain and mature the operational hunt framework used across Cyber
Defense. Build, document, and refine the templates, integrations, and
standards hunters from multiple teams follow. Design, build, and
maintain integrations and automation across the hunt lifecycle -
spanning work-tracking, collaboration, ticketing, knowledge management,
SIEM, EDR, threat intelligence platforms, and reporting. Execute hunts
and support the hunt community across teams. Perform proactive and
signal-driven hunts, respond to hunt questions from hunters across Cyber
Defense, and partner with Threat Intelligence to translate hunt-informed
analysis into actionable intelligence. Synthesize hunt outcomes into
cross-hunt correlations, control gap identification, and inputs to
future hunts and detections. Partner with detection engineering to
translate hunt findings into production rules and analytics. Contribute
detection candidates through the established handoff pipeline. Consume
and apply threat intelligence to hunt activity. Track adversary and
threat cluster TTPs relevant to Northwestern Mutual, prioritize what
matters, and translate intel into hunt hypotheses. Mentor analysts and
junior hunters. Pair on investigations, lead technical deep-dives, and
grow the hunt capability across teams. Report on program outcomes.
Communicate findings to internal stakeholders - what was found, what was
contained, where detection coverage gaps exist, and what was changed as
a result. Evaluate, integrate, and maintain security tooling used by
