Quora’s Security team is responsible for protecting the company’s most critical assets from both external threats and insider risks
We’re a small, high-ownership team with a pragmatic, builder-oriented approach: we build where commercial solutions don’t fit, leverage AI to work efficiently at scale, and move fast to stay ahead of real-world threats
We’re looking for a Detection & Corporate Security Engineer to strengthen both our preventative and detection capabilities across corporate and production environments
This is a genuinely hybrid role: you’ll build and maintain detection systems while also owning the corporate security controls that protect our employee fleet and internal infrastructure
You’ll work closely with our IT team, collaborate with existing security engineers on production-side coverage, and serve as a trusted security advisor to non-technical teams across the organization
Build and maintain a SIEM to collect and analyze logs from across corporate and production systems; write and deploy detections and alerts to identify malicious behavior
Design and deploy canary tokens and early warning mechanisms to detect threats before they reach critical assets
Investigate security incidents end-to-end — including malware analysis, exfiltration assessment, and timeline reconstruction — and build runbooks to scale response capabilities
Partner with IT to define and enforce security standards across the employee device fleet, including endpoint protection, managed device requirements, OS compliance, and VPN access controls
Drive the PoC and implementation of Zero-Trust VPN and other corporate security infrastructure
Provide security guidance and advisory support to non-engineering functions across the organization
Preferred experience
Experience conducting security incident investigations, including malware analysis, log review, and timeline reconstruction and threat modeling
5+ years of experience in security engineering, detection engineering, or a closely related field
Strong Python engineering skills with a track record of writing production code reviewed and shipped alongside software engineering teams
Experience with corporate security controls, identity management, endpoint protection, and access control enforcement
Hands-on experience building or maintaining SIEM infrastructure and writing detection rules
