Responsibilities

Build the event pipeline & data model
Stand up and harden the FDR to S3 delivery for Falcon Device Control events (e.g., DcRemovableStorageDeviceConnected, DcUsbDevicePolicyViolation, DcUsbDeviceWhitelisted, etc.), ensuring schema normalization and lifecycle management in S3
Configure Microsoft Sentinel ingestion for FDR data and AD/Entra ID user/group events; develop KQL parsers, tables, and data normalizations to support correlation
Author KQL analytics/rules that join Windows Event IDs 4728/4729/6416/4663 with CrowdStrike Device Control events to identify when a user's group status should change host USB policy posture
Implement suppression/thresholding to reduce flapping and false positives (e.g., batch group changes, burst‑aware dedupe)
Build idempotent automation (PowerShell, Python, Logic Apps, Functions, or similar) that calls CrowdStrike APIs to move hosts into/out of the Device Control allow group based on Sentinel signals. Include robust error handling, retries, and audit logging
Package automation as CI/CD artifacts (IaC where appropriate), with secure secrets handling (Key Vault/Secrets Manager)
Develop unit tests for parsers and functions, integration tests for end‑to‑end flows (synthetic Windows events + synthetic FDR samples), and UAT runbooks for security operations
Create simulation data (sanitized/synthetic) to validate rules for Event IDs 4728, 4729, 6416, 4663 and representative FDR Device Control events prior to production cutover
Build dashboards in Sentinel that show pipeline health, rule efficacy, and host policy transitions
Document the full runbook: deployment, rollback, break‑glass steps, and change control
Train L2/L3 SOC and Help Desk on troubleshooting and manual override procedures

Preferred

Experience building SOAR playbooks (e.g., Sentinel Automation Rules/Logic Apps) and CI/CD pipelines for security automations
Prior implementation of device control/DLP workflows and handling USB policy exceptions at scale
Exposure to regulated environments (e.g., healthcare/life sciences) and change‑controlled releases
Familiarity with Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) group modeling and hybrid AD sync nuances
