About the role

Senior / Staff Software Engineer role focused on designing and owning Suno's detection and response capabilities, including telemetry, detections, playbooks, and on-call processes.

Responsibilities

  • Design and build our detection and telemetry pipeline, including logging coverage, the detection stack, and the data that feeds it.
  • Write high-signal detections mapped to the threats that matter most, starting with identity, access, the cloud control plane, and data exfiltration.
  • Build and own incident response — playbooks, on-call, live response, and post-incident reviews that improve the organization over time.
  • Partner with security and platform engineering to close telemetry gaps and instrument what isn’t yet visible.
  • Set the bar for detection-as-code and a metrics-driven approach to response.
  • Build detection for AI-specific abuse and threats and novel attack patterns as they emerge.
  • Leverage AI to augment you so you can focus on the critical work that only you can do.

Qualifications

  • 6+ years in detection and response, including building detection capability and setting direction — not only operating an established one.
  • Strong AWS-native detection depth (CloudTrail, GuardDuty, VPC/flow logs, and the broader ecosystem).
  • A detection-as-code, engineering-first mindset.
  • Calm, structured, and decisive in a live incident.
  • Interest in detecting emerging AI/ML abuse and threat patterns.
